physics circuit for those who know Kirchoffs law
I got class, I'll have to check it after
ok bt dont forget
what do you want to find?
voltages through each resistor?
yup
Have you tried writing out the equations for each loop? If you do, you'll end up with a system of linear equations. Then you (just!) have to solve them.
james im confused bout how to make equation plz help me do that
lalaly have any idea ?
start with the v4 -8+7+v4=0 v4=8-7=1V now v2 -v4+6-v2=0 -1+6-v2=0 v2=5V V3 -6+v3-5=0 v3=11V v1 -7+v1-v3=0 -7+v1-11=0 v1=18V
plz can u make me understand how did u get equation
ok u have four closed loops right?
yup
and what does kirchoffs voltage law say?
voltage around closed loop =0
so how to evaluate the v4 loop
yeah so for the first loop on the left u have the 8V 7V and V4, now go around that loop clockwise for example, from the 8V , when u hit a negative sign in any voltage its - like for 8v -8 then when u go through the 7 u hit the positive so its +7 and for the resistor positive so +v4 ... and then take the sum=0
i cant understand the sign of v4 how did u evaluate that plz can u draw
