Hi, I am trying to solve this circuit (see picture attached) but I am clearly doing something wrong. I am using KVL to find the voltage, so I was trying to find the currents I1, I2 and I3 first. Although, once I multiply the obtained equation (4) by 3 and subtract it from equation (3) I have zero as a result. What am I doing wrong? The goal would be to find the Voltage Vab.
KVL and KCL
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.
Sign Convention
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 and refraction in an easier way.
