Help with Kirchoff nodal analysis

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Find the voltages at each node using nodal analysis. I just need to get to the 5 equations and 5 unknowns part and I can take it from there.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@amistre64 you good in physics?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

newtonian basics .... nothing much of anything more advanced.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

what is nodal analysis?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

is V5 a node? what im reading is that it should be 3 or more branches

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm not entirely sure how to explain it. This is actually for a MATLAB class, using MATLAB to solve the 5 equations and 5 unknowns when you get that far. I had to result in a youtube video to kinda get an idea of what to do but i still dont think im doing it right.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah v5 is a node

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i lied, 70

OpenStudy (amistre64):

the direction in or out of a node represents a + or - value ...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right

OpenStudy (amistre64):

how do we calculate for the coeffs of v1,v2,v3,etc?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you get a common denominator and move the constants to the other side and combine like terms.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

direction to node divided by resitance ... and the -5 is the current defined already for V1
