ANOTHER APPLICATION OF KIRCHHOFF’S RULES
GOAL Find the currents in a circuit with three currents and two batteries when some current directions are chosen inaccurately.
PROBLEM Find I_{1}, I_{2}, and I_{3} in Figure 18.16 \mathrm{a}
STRATEGY Use Kirchhoff’s two rules, the junction rule once and the loop rule twice, to develop three equations for the three unknown currents. Solve the equations simultaneously.
