Thanks for taking the time to help Sammy :)
I took the pic down because of that inaccuracy you mentioned. All the loops that I've derived my figures from in my original post go anticlockwise.
However I think I've inadvertently done it right.
When I originally did it I followed the advice...
ach I still don't understand :/
I've just resorted to redoing the voltage equations going clockwise instead of anticlockwise.
And that gives me the right currents going down.
Thanks anyway :)
Hi,
Ive trying to work through Kirchhoffs voltage and current laws.
Ive so far calculated:
Current in Loop one (I1): 3 Amps going anticlockwise
Current in Loop Two (I2): 4 amps going anticlockwise
Current in Loop Three (I3): 8 amps going anticlockwise
R1: 5 amps going up = (Current...

I've been asked to find the power dissipated across R3.
I'm just wondering if I'm right in my method so far?
Loop One:
-6v + R1(I1) + R3(I1-I2) = 0
I1 = 1.0471698Amps
Loop Two:
-1.5V + R2(I2)...
Yeah I threw away the method I used in my original post.
I haven't done it the same way as you guys, (I got values for A,B,C after about 9 steps while you guys seemed to have done it in 5 or 6)
However battling the logic out for myself has helped me understand the process better, and I...
I'ld just like to say many thanks to those who were kind enough to take time out of their day to help me.
You guys have made the world a little bit brighter for me :)
Thanks again
I've been looking on youtube to try and learn how to do these more complex equations but all the examples use small numbers that easily fall into place.
Ive got
Equation One: 48A - 32B - 2C = 0
Equation Two: -32A +46B - 11C = 0
Equation Three: -2A - 11B + 13C = 54
Ive mulitplied...

Hi
I can't get my head round Kirchoffs law. I've been alright with series and parallel circuits with one voltage supply, but I've been given a problem with two voltage supplies.
Would anyone be able...
