It states that in any linear, bilateral network where more than one source is present, the response across any element in the circuit is the sum of the responses obtained from each source considered separately.
Vo = V1 (due to 4 A) + V2 (due to 10 V)
Case 1: When 4 A is active
The voltage source (10 V) will be short-circuited.
By current divider rule:
The current across 2Ω resistance is:
The voltage across 2Ω resistance is:
Case 2: When 10 V is active
The current source (4 A) will be open-circuited.
By voltage divider rule:
The voltage across 2Ω resistance is:
The net voltage V is:
Vo = V1 + V2
Vo = 4 + 2
Vo = 6 V
