Applying Kirchhoff’s loop rule to the loop abb′a′a of Fig. 24.13, and traversing the loop clockwise, we obtain the following expression:
Loop abb′a′a:    {\mathcal{E}}_{1}+I r_{1}+I r_{2}-{\mathcal{E}}_{2}=0

9 V + (0.02 Ω)I + (0.04 Ω)I − 12 V = 0
Then: I = 50A
Of course, we do not need Kirchhoff’s rules to solve this simple loop circuit.
We are just using it to practice applying the loop rule.
