3. Consider a network having Figure Q3 as its graph. Write down the KCL
equations at each node ( a, b, c, d, e and f), with the element currents being
designated as i 1 , i 2 , i 3 , i 4 , i 5 , i 6 , i 7 and i 8 . Put the equations in matrix form
such that Ai= 0, where i= [i 1 , i 2 , i 3 , i 4 , i 5 , i 6 , i 7 , i 8 ] is a column vector and A is
the augmented nodal incidence matrix.

denote the loops while the columns 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 denote the branches.
Draw the oriented graph by assuming branches 1, 2 and 3 as tree branches,
and 4, 5 and 6 as the co-tree links. (Be sure to label the branch numbers
and orientations clearly.)

A network is given with its corresponding graph as shown in Figure Q4.
(i) Obtain the voltage source matrix, E and current source matrix, I.
(ii) Hence, use nodal analysis technique to obtain the branch currents, i
and branch voltages, e. Note that you are required to show the
resultant matrix from each of the 4 equations applied for the analysis
technique.

i. Draw a directional network graph. Then, using mesh analysis, find all the
branch voltages, e and branch currents, i.
ii. Based on the network graph drawn in part (i), draw a tree and its
corresponding co-tree. Then, using cutset analysis, find all the branch
voltages, e and branch currents, i.
iii. Hence, find the power dissipated by the 3  resistor which is in p arallel
with the current source.
Note: Use the directions given in the circuit to obtain your graph.
