Example: Find the magnitude and direction of the currents l,14, l6, and I, for the network of Figure(3-13). Even though the elements are not in series or parallel, Kirchhoff's current law can be applied to determine all the unknown currents. 1- 12 A Is=8 A d 1, 1- 10A

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.

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 a…
