At node 1, 4 + 3 = i1 i1 = 7A
At node 3, 3 + i2 = -2 i2 = -5A

Chapter 2, Solution 11.

−V1 + 1 + 5 = 0 

For mesh 2,

For mesh 3,

For mesh 4,
−V1 − V2 − 2 = 0 

Chapter 2, Solution 19.

Applying KVL around the loop, we obtain

-12 + 10 - (-8) + 3i = 0 i = –2A

Power dissipated by the resistor:

p 3Ω = i2R = 4(3) = 12W

Power supplied by the sources:

p12V = 12 ((–2)) = –24W

p10V = 10 (–(–2)) = 20W

p8V = (–8)(–2) = 16W

Chapter 2, Solution 22.

6Ω 10A 2v0

At the node, KCL requires that

v0
+ 10 + 2 v 0 = 0 v0 = –4.444V

The current through the controlled source is

i = 2V0 = -8.888A

and the voltage across it is

v = (6 + 4) i0 (where i0 = v0/4) = 10 = −11.111

Hence,

p2 vi = (-8.888)(-11.111) = 98.75 W

Chapter 2, Solution 23.

8//12 = 4.8, 3//6 = 2, (4 + 2)//(1.2 + 4.8) = 6//6 = 3


The circuit is reduced to that shown below.

Applying current division,

The current through the 1.2- Ω resistor is 0.5ix = 1A. The voltage across the 12- Ω
resistor is 1 x 4.8 = 4.8 V. Hence the power is
