Circuits 1 HW4 Q1
**Problem Statement:**

1. Using the superposition method, find the current \( i_1 \) due to the 7A current source acting alone.

**Circuit Diagram Explanation:**

The diagram shows a circuit with two voltage sources and one current source:

- A 24V voltage source on the left, connected in series with a 3Ω resistor.
- A 7A current source in the middle.
- A 3V voltage source on the right, connected in series with a 2Ω resistor.
- Currents \( i_1 \) through the 3Ω resistor and \( i_2 \) through the 2Ω resistor are indicated with arrows showing the direction of flow.

To solve using the superposition method, consider the effect of the 7A current source while replacing the two voltage sources (24V and 3V) with short circuits. Calculate \( i_1 \) with only the 7A current source active.
