Step 1 :
Calculation of $V_{Th}$
From the given figure , in order to find $V_{Th}$ let us remove the resistor of $10 \Omega$ from the circuit.
$\therefore V_{x}=-25(5I_1)$
$\therefore V_x=-125I_1$........(1)
Applying KVL to the mesh 1,
$12-1000I_1-2(-125I_1)=0$
$\therefore I_1=0.016A$
Putting the value of $I_1$in equation (1),
$\therefore V_x=-125I_1=-125(0.016)=-2V$
Writing the $V_{Th}$ equation ,
$V_{Th}=V_x=-2V$
Step 2:
Calculation of $I_N$
In order to find the norton current, let us short circuit the $10\Omega$ resistor and current flowing through this resistor is $I_N$.
By short circuiting , $V_x=0$
The dependent source of $2V$ depends on the controlling variable $V_x$ .When $V_x=0$ , the dependent sources vanishes,i.e. $2V_x=0$.
$\therefore I_1=\dfrac{12}{1000}=0.012A$
$I_N=-5I_1=-5(0.012)=-0.06A$
Step 3 :
Calculation of $R_N$
$\therefore R_N=\dfrac{V_{Th}}{I_N}=\dfrac{-2}{-0.06}=33.33 \Omega$
Step 4:
Calculation of $I_L$
$I_L$ is the current flowing through $10\Omega$ resistor of nortons equivalent circuit with current source of -0.06A and $R_N=33.33 \Omega$ in the circuit.
$I_L=-0.06\times \dfrac{33.33}{33.33+10}$
$\therefore I_L=-0.046A$
Hence, the current flowing through $10\Omega $ resistor by Norton's theorem is -0.046A.
