Using Kirchhoff\'s rules, find the currents 11, 12, and 13 in the circuit shown

Question

Using Kirchhoff's rules, find the currents 11, 12, and 13 in the circuit shown where R1 = 1.2 , R2-2.5 , and R3 = 5.5 . 11= -13.25 you submitted has the wrong sign. 121.45 response differs from the correct answer by more than 10%. Double check your calculations. 131.25 you submitted has the wrong sign. XA Apply Kirchhoffs rules and solve them for the unknown currents. The response XA Apply Kirchhoff's rules and solve them for the unknown currents. Your A Apply Kirchhoff's rules and solve them for the unknown currents. The response 10 V R3

Explanation / Answer

I1 + I2 = I3...............(1)

10 + I2*R2 - I1*R1 = 0

10 + I2*2.5 - I1*1.2 = 0 ............(2)

-I1*R1 - I3*R3 = 0

-I1*1.2 - I3*5.5 = 0 ..............(3)

I1 = 2.36 A

I2 = -2.87 A

I3 = -0.51 A
