Chapter 18, Problem 18P
(a) Find the current in each resistor of Figure P18.18 by using the rules for resistors in series and parallel. (b) Write three independent equations for the three currents using Kirchhoff’s laws: one with the node rule; a second using the loop rule through the battery, the 6.0-Ω resistor, and the 24.0-Ω resistor; and the third using the loop rule through the 12.0-Ω and 24.0-Ω resistors. Solve to check the answers found in part (a).
