equivalent to an open circuit (i.e.two unconnected points)
Resistor Connections
Series Connection
Two resistors are connected in series if - they share one terminal (A), - such a terminal is not connected to nothing else

REQ=R1+R2
Replacing two resistor in series with the equivalent resistor, node A is lost. Node A voltage can be expressed in terms of the overall voltage v across the series-connected resistors

Superposition Principle R1 + v1 R2 R3 vo i3 R4 R5
In any linear circuit which includes more that one independent source, each output can be expressed as the sum of the contributions of each source.
+ v2
vo=vo+vo+vo
The contribution of a source to the output is the value of the output in the circuit when the considered source is active, while the other sources are turned off.
a voltage source, when it is turned off, is equivalent to a short circuit a current source, when it is turned off, is equivalent to an open circuit
