a) Calculate the currents I1, I2 and I3 indicated in the figure. b) Explain Kirchhoff's law of meshes applied to solve the previous subsection and how Would Kirchhoff's law of nodes apply? (no need to solve for Kirchhoff's law of nodes) c) What is the potential difference (observe the signs) between the points a & e (Vae)? d) Discuss the law of conservation of energy and verify it with the data of your exercise.
KVL and KCL
KVL stands for Kirchhoff voltage law. KVL states that the total voltage drops around the loop in any closed electric circuit is equal to the sum of total voltage drop in the same closed loop.
Sign Convention
Science and technology incorporate some ideas and techniques of their own to understand a system skilfully and easily. These techniques are called conventions. For example: Sign conventions of mirrors are used to understand the phenomenon of reflection and refraction in an easier way.
