Step 1
We can label the currents as I1, I2, and I3. The arrows should point in the direction of the current flow. I1: From the positive terminal of the 9V battery, through the 7 ohm resistor, and towards the junction with I2 and I3. I2: From the junction with I1 and Show more…

Use Kirchhoff's rules to determine the equations needed to determine the currents in the circuit shown at the right. You must be very explicit in describing the symbols you are using to represent the currents, including their directions, and then you must be very explicit in describing the loops you are using to generate equations. Please be as neat and organized as possible.

For each of these circuits, use the branch currents as unknowns and write a set of KCL equations and a set of KVL equations. Arrange your equations into matrix form. Circuit I: Three KCL equations and three KVL equations. Circuit II: Three KCL equations and three KVL equations. Circuit III: Two KCL equations and two KVL equations. Remark: Do not write mesh equations.
