8Ω

3Ω I2 5Ω

3A I4 20V
I1
10V I3 2A

5Ω
Clearly,
I1 = 3A ... (1)
I3 − I4 = 2A ⇒ I3 = I4 + 2A ... (2)
KVL along loop BCFEB:
8ΩI2 + 5Ω(I2 − I4 ) + 3Ω(I2 − I1 ) = 0
8I2 + 5(I2 − I4 ) + 3(I2 − 3A) = 0
⇒ 16I2 − 5I4 = 9 ... (3)
KVL along loop BCDJIHEB:
8ΩI2 − 20V + 5ΩI3 − 10V + 3Ω(I2 − I1 ) = 0
⇒ 8ΩI2 + 5ΩI3 + 3ΩI2 = 30V + 3ΩI1
⇒ 8I2 + 5I3 + 3I2 = 39A
⇒ 8I2 + 5(I4 + 2A) + 3I2 = 39A
⇒ 11I2 + 5I4 = 29A ... (4)
Solving equations (3) and (4), we get
I2 = 1.4074074074074 , andI4 = 2.7037037037037
Now
V1 = 3Ω(I1 − I2 ) = 4.7777777777778V
V2 = 5Ω(I2 − I4 ) = −6.4814814814815V
Power supplied by 3A current source = 3A × (10V + V1 ) = 44.333333333333W

Power supplied by 2A current source = 2A × (20V + V2 ) = 27.037037037037W


(V1 −V2 )2
Power consumed by 8Ω resistor = 8Ω
= 15.846364883402W
Power supplied by 10V voltage source = 10V × (I3 − I1 ) = 17.037037037037W

Power supplied by 20V voltage source = 20V × (I4 ) = 54.074074074074W

Total power supplied by the two voltage sources = 71.111111111111W

Find the electrical power delivered/supplied/generated (i.e. other forms of power converted into electrical power) by the 20 V voltage source (in

[1+1+1+0.4+0.8+0.8 = 5 marks]

3A 6Ω

20V
Va Vb Vc
2Ω i1
6Ω 5Ω
4A
i 3A

Clearly,
Vb = Vc + 20V ... (1)
KCL at node a:

( 6Ω
1 1
) Va
Vb Vc
+ 2Ω
− 2Ω
− 6Ω
= 4A − 3A

⇒ 8Va − 6Vb − 2Vc = 12V


⇒ 8Va − 6(Vc + 20V ) − 2Vc = 12V
⇒ 8Va − 8Vc = 132V ... (2)
KCL at node b:

( 2Ω
1 1
) Vb
Va
+ 6Ω
− 2Ω
= 3A − i1 ... (3)

KCL at node c:

( 6Ω
1 1
) Vc
Va
+ 5Ω
− 6Ω
= 3A + i1 ... (4)

From equation (3) + equation (4), we get

( 2Ω
1 1
) Vb + ( 6Ω
1 1
) Vc
Va Va
+ 6Ω
− 2Ω
+ 5Ω
− 6Ω
= 6A

⇒ ( 12 + 16 ) Vb + ( 16 + 15 ) Vc − ( 16 + 12 ) Va = 6V
⇒ 240Vb + 132Vc − 240Va = 6V × 360
⇒ 240(Vc + 20V ) + 132Vc − 240Va = 6V × 360
⇒ −240Va + 372Vc = −2640 ... (5)
Solving equation (2) and (5) together, we get
Va = 26.5V , and Vc = 10V . ⇒ Vb = Vc + 20V = 30V
V
Now i = 6Ωb = 5A

Power supplied by 4 A current source = 4A × Va = 106W


Va −Vb Vb
Now i1 = 3A + 2Ω
− 6Ω
= −3.75A
Power supplied by 20 V voltage source = 20V × (−i1 ) = 75W
