Please note that an ideal current generator /
source allways must be able to deliver the promissed
current.
Open and close the switches and observe the
voltage.
Replace the current source with a voltage source
- and repeat the experiment.

Generator
It promise allways to deliver 1 Ampere
WARNING - THE VOLTAGE CAN BE DANGEROUS
