Hello All,
I am trying to teach myself basic EE. The textbook I am using gave the following example:
1. Find IS2. Diagram is attached.
Given:
IS1 = 2A
I2 = 3A
I3 = 2A
I4 = 1A
I5 = 0A
The answer in the textbook is 1A.
My Method using KCF:
IS1 + IS2 - I2- I3 - I4 -I5 = 0
Substituting the numbers I get: 2 + IS2 - 3 - 2 - 1 = 0; IS2 = 4A
I am not sure where I am going wrong here.
Thanks for any insight!
