Using the values given below, find the currents shown in the diagram. R_1 = 31_ohm R_2 = 31_ohm R_3 = 43_ohm R_4 = 39_ohm V_1 = 9.1_V V_2 = 13_V V_3 = 13_V I_1 =___I_2 =___I_3 =___
Solution
Applying kirchoffs voltage law in the upper loop
V1 - I1R1 - I3R3 - V3 = 0
substituting the values we get
31 I1 + 43I3 = -3.9.......(1)
Applying kirchoffs voltage law in the LOWER loop
-V2 - I2R2 -I2R4 +V3 + I3R3 = 0
substituting the values we get
70 I2 - 43I3 = 0 ......(2)
applying junction law in the right arm middle junction of the circuit
I1 = I2 + I3....(3)
solving 1 , 2 ,3 we get
I1 = 0.0677
I2 = 0.0258
I3 = 0.0419
