Final answer:

To find the Thevenin equivalent of circuit 2 at nodes a and b, calculate the open circuit voltage and the equivalent resistance.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the Thevenin equivalent of circuit 2 at nodes a and b, follow these steps:

  1. Calculate the open circuit voltage (Voc) by removing the load and calculating the voltage across nodes a and b.
  2. Calculate the equivalent resistance (Req) by shorting all voltage sources and finding the total resistance seen from nodes a and b.
  3. The Thevenin equivalent consists of Voc as the open circuit voltage and Req as the equivalent resistance.
