In the given circuit, if I1=3AI_1 = 3\,\text{A} and I2=2AI_2 = 2\,\text{A}, what is the value of current I3I_3?

Q2medium

A circuit loop consists of a 12 V battery, a 4Ω4\,\Omega resistor, and a 2Ω2\,\Omega resistor connected in series. If the current flowing in the loop is II, what is the correct KVL equation if traversed in the direction of current, starting from the negative terminal of the battery?

Q3medium

Consider a circuit with two loops. If there are 4 nodes and 6 branches, how many independent KCL and KVL equations are required to solve the circuit?

Q4easy

Which of the following statements is INCORRECT regarding Kirchhoff's Laws?

Q5hard

In the circuit shown, find the current I1I_1 using Kirchhoff's Laws. (Assume a circuit with two loops: Loop 1 with a 10V battery, R1=2ΩR_1=2\,\Omega, R2=3ΩR_2=3\,\Omega. Loop 2 with a 5V battery, R2=3ΩR_2=3\,\Omega, R3=1ΩR_3=1\,\Omega. R2R_2 is common to both loops. Let I1I_1 be current in Loop 1, I2I_2 in Loop 2, and I3I_3 be current through R2R_2 downwards. Assume I1I_1 flows clockwise in Loop 1, I2I_2 flows clockwise in Loop 2.)

Q6easy

In a circuit, if a current of 4A4\,\text{A} enters a junction and then splits into two branches carrying currents IAI_A and IBI_B. If IA=1.5AI_A = 1.5\,\text{A}, what is the value of IBI_B?

Q7medium

A loop in a circuit contains a voltage source of 6V6\,\text{V} and two resistors of R1=1ΩR_1 = 1\,\Omega and R2=2ΩR_2 = 2\,\Omega. If the current flows from the positive terminal of the battery, through R1R_1, then R2R_2, and back to the negative terminal, what is the potential difference across R2R_2?
