Document Summary
Problem set #3 (total 4 problems: 5 pts each) Determine the values of the power supplied by each of the sources in the circuit shown in figure p1. Next, express the resistor currents in terms of the node voltages. Identify the supernode corresponding to the 10 v source. Express the resistor currents in terms of the node voltages: i. P 2 the voltages va, vb, and vc in figure p. 2 are the node voltages corresponding to nodes a, b, and c. the values of these voltages are: va = 8. 667 v, vb = 2 v, and vc = 10 v. Determine the value of a, the gain of the dependent source. P 3 determine the value of the current ix in the circuit of figure p 3. First, express the controlling current of the ccvs in terms of the node voltages: i = x v. Next, express the controlled voltage in terms of the node voltages:
