Question
Conservation of energy requires that the sum of the power received by all of the elements in a
circuit be zero. In the figure below, all of the elements voltages and currents are specified except
one. Find the unknown voltage v1 in Volts of the element.
5V
-5 A
9 V
1 A
8 V
V1 V
1 A
4 A
5 A
+ 1 V
Hint: Calculate the power absorbed by each element. Add up all of these powers. If the sum is zero,
conservation of energy is satisfied and the voltages and currents are probably correct. If the sum is
not zero, the element voltages and currents cannot be correct.
