Question
**Circuit Analysis Using Superposition**

**Objective:**
For the circuit provided, where \( V_S = 125 \, \text{V} \), apply the principle of superposition to find the node voltages \( V_A \), \( V_B \), and \( V_C \).

**Components and Layout:**

1. **Voltage Source:**
   - \( V_1 = 20 \, \text{VDC} \)

2. **Current Source:**
   - \( I_1 = 0.015 \, \text{A} \)

3. **Resistors:**
   - \( R_1 = 2 \, \text{k}\Omega \)
   - \( R_2 = 1 \, \text{k}\Omega \)
   - \( R_3 = 3 \, \text{k}\Omega \)
   - \( R_4 = 1 \, \text{k}\Omega \)
   - \( R_5 = 1 \, \text{k}\Omega \)
   - \( R_6 = 1 \, \text{k}\Omega \)
   - \( R_8 = 1 \, \text{k}\Omega \)

**Circuit Description:**

- The circuit has a voltage source \( V_1 = 20 \, \text{VDC} \) connected between the ground node and one terminal of \( R_1 \).
- Node \( V_A \) connects \( R_1 \), \( R_3 \), \( R_8 \), and \( R_2 \).
- Node \( V_B \) connects \( R_4 \), \( R_5 \), and \( R_8 \).
- Node \( V_C \) connects \( R_2 \), \( R_5 \), and the current source \( I_1 = 0.015 \, \text{A} \).

**Analysis Steps with Superposition:**

1. **Deactivate all sources except one and calculate the contribution to each node voltage.**
   - For the voltage source \( V_1 \), replace the current source with an open circuit.
   - For the current source \( I_1 \), replace the voltage source with a short circuit.

2. **Repeat steps for each source, then sum their contributions for \( V_A \), \( V_B \), and \( V_C \).**
