To determine Calculate the total power developed in the given circuit. Explanation Given data: Refer to Figure P2.9 in the textbook for required data. v o = 5 V Formula used: Write the expression for power developed or absorbed by the source (voltage or current) as follows: p = v s i s (1) Here, i s is the current through the source and v s is the voltage across the source. Calculation: From the given circuit, voltage of dependent source v o is equal to 10 v a . Therefore, write the expression as follows: 10 v a = v o v a = v o 10 Substitute 5 V for v o to obtain the value of v a . v a = 5 V 10 = 0.5 V As all the branches of the circuit are in parallel, the voltage across each branch is same. Therefore, write the expression to find the voltage drop across 9 A current source as follows: v 9 A + 20 V = 5 V Simplify the expression to find the voltage drop across 9 A current source as follows: v 9 A = 5 V − 20 V = − 15 V From the circuit, write the expression to find the voltage of v g voltage source as follows: − v g + v a = 5 V Substitute 0.5 V or v a and simplify the expression as follows: − v g + 0.5 V = 5 V v g = − 4.5 V From the calculations, redraw the circuit as shown in Figure 1. If the current enters from the negative terminal and leaves from the positive terminal of a voltage source then the source delivers the power. The delivering power is obtained with negative sign. If the current enters from the positive terminal and leaves from the negative terminal of a voltage source then the source absorbs the power. The absorbing power is obtained with positive sign. Rewrite the expression in Equation (1) to find the power associated with the 9 A current source as follows: p 9 A = ( v s ) 9 A ( i s ) 9 A Substitute − 15 V for ( v s ) 9 A and 9 A for ( i s ) 9 A to find the power associated with the 9 A current source as follows. p 9 A = ( − 15 V ) ( 9 A ) = − 135 VA = − 135 W { ∵ 1 VA=1 W } As the power is obtained with negative sign, the power is developed power. Therefore, the power developed by the 9 A current source is 135 W. p 9 A = 135 W Rewrite the expression in Equation (1) to find the power associated with the 20 V voltage source as follows: p 20 V = ( v s ) 20 V ( i s ) 20 V Substitute 20 V for ( v s ) 20 V and 9 A for ( i s ) 20 V to find the power associated with the 20 V voltage source as follows. p 20 V = ( 20 V ) ( 9 A ) = 180 VA = 180 W As the power is obtained with positive sign, the power is absorbed power

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.
