Explanation / Answer

here,

let the current through R1 be i1 and R2 be i2

using KVL in the left side loop

i1 * (R1 + 8) + 6 * ( i1 - i2) = 6

i1 * (16 + 8) + 6 * ( i1 - i2) = 6 ...(1)

and

using KVL in the left side loop

i2 * ( R2 + 2) - 6 * ( i1 - i2) = 3

i2 * ( 11 + 2) - 6 * ( i1 - i2) = 3 ....(2)

from (1) and (2)


i1 = 0.247 A, i2 = 0.236 A

current through R1 = 0.25 A

current through 8 ohm = 0.25 A

current through 6 ohm = ( i1 - i2) = 0.011 A

current through 2 ohm = 0.236 A

current through R2 = 0.236 A
