The following equations describe an electric circuit. −I1(247 Ω) + 5.80 V − I2(381 Ω) = 0 I2(381 Ω) + I3(150 Ω) − 3.10 V = 0 I1 + I3 − I2 = 0 Calculate the unknowns (in mA). With respect to the 5.8 V battery, consider current moving toward the positive pole as positive and current moving toward the negative pole as negative.
Ohm's law
Ohm’s law is a prominent concept in physics and electronics. It gives the relation between the current and the voltage. It is used to analyze and construct electrical circuits. Ohm's law states that the voltage across a conductor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it.
Path of Least Resistance
In a series of alternate pathways, the direction of least resistance is the actual or metaphorical route that offers the least resistance to forwarding motion by a given individual or body.
| −I1(247 Ω) + 5.80 V − I2(381 Ω) | = | 0 |
| I2(381 Ω) + I3(150 Ω) − 3.10 V | = | 0 |
| I1 + I3 − I2 | = | 0 |
Calculate the unknowns (in mA). With respect to the 5.8 V battery, consider current moving toward the positive pole as positive and current moving toward the negative pole as negative.
