    Solve For I1, I2, and I3: Jan Paolo M. Macalalad 12-Narra

    1) The document provides the circuit diagram of a three loop circuit with one battery and three resistors and asks to find the unknown currents I1, I2, and I3. 2) Linear simultaneous equations are set up for each loop using Kirchhoff's laws. This results in two equations relating the unknown currents. 3) The two equations are solved simultaneously to find the values of I1, I2, and I3 which are 0.27 A, 0.35 A, and 0.08 A respectively.

    Solve for I1, I2, and I3

    Guide to follow

    PART I: Labeling the Circuit  Diagram

    1. Draw the circuit diagram

    +¿ −¿ +¿ −¿
    +¿

    +¿ −¿ −¿
    −¿
    −¿ +¿

    +¿

    2. Label the following

        a) battery (make sure to properly assign the positive and negative side)

    +¿ −¿ A+¿ +¿ −¿
    +¿
    +¿ −¿ −¿
    +¿ −¿ −¿
    −¿ +¿
    −¿
    −¿ +¿

    +¿
    B
        b) resistors

    3. Assign (your own prerogative) the direction of current in each BRANCH. Make sure that there
    is an entering and leaving current in every NODE or JUNCTION.
    4. Select the LOOPS and assign (your own prerogative) DIRECTION. (either counterclockwise or
    clockwise)

    loop 3
    +¿ −¿ A +¿ −¿
    \ +¿
    I2 \
    +¿ −¿ −¿
    I3 ( I 2−I 1)
    loop1 −¿ loop 2
    −¿ +¿
    \
    I1
    +¿
    B

    PART II: Sign convention

    A. For current times resistance (I x R)

          SIMILAR direction of current and loop = POSITIVE 


                      Ex: "R2 x I2 " in loop 3

          OPPOSITE direction of current and loop = negative


                      Ex: "R1 x I1" in loop 1

    I 1 × R 1 in loop 1 is POSITIVE

    I 2 × R 2 in loop 2 is POSITIVE

    B. For Batteries or Voltage Sign


    Follow the sign of the last terminal when following the direction of the LOOP.
    Example: In the link attached here. 
    Look at "loop 1", the direction is clockwise.
     If you follow the loop 1, you will pass through "V1" which is 10 V. 
    You can observe that will pass through the negative terminal first (shorter line) then positive terminal     
    (longer line).
    Since the you traverse the positive terminal last, the sigh of 10V is positive for loop 1.

    The direction of loop 1 is counterclockwise, it pass through "V 1" which is 8 V , it pass through
    the negative terminal first (shorter line) then positive terminal (longer line), and since traverse the
    positive terminal last, the sign of 8 V is positive for loop 1.

    The direction of loop 2 is counterclockwise, it pass through "V 2" which is 40 V , it pass through
    the negative terminal first (shorter line) then positive terminal (longer line), and since traverse the
    positive terminal last, the sign of 8 V is positive for loop 1.

    The direction of loop 3 is counterclockwise, it pass through "V 2" which is 40 V and "V 1" which
    is 8 V , it pass through the negative terminal first (shorter line) then positive terminal (longer line), and
    since traverse the positive terminal last, the sign of 8 V and 40 V is positive for loop 3.

    PART III: Use Linear simultaneous equations as required to find the unknown currents.
