In the given circuit, the value of |(I₁+I₃)/(I₂)| is _____________ Numerical answer type. Work it out, then open the answer.

Answer: 2. Take the left wire at 0. The middle node M is the + side of both cells: VM = +10 V, right wire = 10 - 20 = -10 V. I₁ = I₂ = (10 - 0)/(10) = 1 A (M to left) I₃ = (0 - (-10))/(10) = 1 A (left to right) |(I₁ + I₃)/(I₂)| = (1 + 1)/(1) = 2

Kirchhoff's Laws & Measuring Instruments

In the given circuit, the value of $\left|\frac{I_1+I_3}{I_2}\right|$ is _____________

Numerical answer type. Work it out, then open the answer.

Show answer and solution

Answer: 2

Take the left wire at 0. The middle node M is the + side of both cells: $V_M = +10\text{ V}$ , right wire $= 10 - 20 = -10\text{ V}$ .
$I_1 = I_2 = \frac{10 - 0}{10} = 1\text{ A}$ (M to left)
$I_3 = \frac{0 - (-10)}{10} = 1\text{ A}$ (left to right)
$\left|\frac{I_1 + I_3}{I_2}\right| = \frac{1 + 1}{1} = 2$
