### Circuit Analysis Problem

**Problem Statement:**
3. For the circuit given below, write loop equations and compute the current through \( R_3 \).

**Circuit Description:**
- The circuit consists of two voltage sources and three resistors.
- \( E_1 = 10V \) is connected in series with \( R_1 = 10\Omega \).
- \( R_1 = 10\Omega \) is in series with \( R_3 = 50\Omega \), which is connected to the ground.
- Parallel to \( R_1 \), there is another branch with \( R_2 = 20\Omega \) in series with voltage source \( E_2 = 25V \).

**Analysis Instructions:**
1. Identify the loops in the circuit for applying Kirchhoff's Voltage Law (KVL).
2. Write the loop equations based on the resistances, voltage sources, and current \( I_1 \) indicated across \( R_1 \).
3. Solve the loop equations to find the current through \( R_3 \).

**Diagram Explanation:**
- The circuit includes two mesh loops: one through \( R_1 \) and \( R_3 \) with \( E_1 \), and another through \( R_2 \) and \( E_2 \).
- The current \( I_1 \) is marked as flowing through the loop with \( E_1 \) and \( R_1 \).

Utilize basic circuit analysis techniques such as Ohm’s Law and Kirchhoff’s Laws to complete the analysis.
