Question
Find the current of the 2 ohm resistor?
**Circuit Diagram Description:** The diagram displays an electrical circuit consisting of several components: - **Current Sources:** - One current source provides 9A flowing to the right. - Another current source provides 3A flowing upwards. - **Resistors:** - A 4Ω resistor is in series with the 9A current source. - A 2Ω resistor is placed in the circuit, positioned above a 4Ω resistor and below a 5Ω resistor. - Another 4Ω resistor is parallel to the upper 2Ω resistor. - A 5Ω resistor is between the 2Ω resistor and a 100Ω resistor. - A 100Ω resistor is connected to the 5Ω resistor and parallels a 20Ω resistor. - A 20Ω resistor goes from the rightmost node in series. - **Nodes:** - Several nodes connect the resistors and current paths, depicted by blue dots. **Task:** 3. Find the current of the 2 ohm resistor. This setup is intended to assess understanding of circuit analysis, specifically applying techniques like node voltage, mesh current, or superposition to derive the current through a specified resistor.
