ENGR 201 - Tutorial 2

This document provides an overview of nodal analysis and mesh analysis techniques for solving circuit problems. It explains how to use nodal analysis by selecting a reference node, applying Kirchhoff's Current Law to write equations relating node voltages, and solving the equations. Mesh analysis is described as assigning mesh currents, applying Kirchhoff's Voltage Law to write equations relating voltages and currents, and solving the simultaneous equations. Several example problems applying these techniques are referenced.
