Hi guys and girls, first post so be gentle please
I have a circuit with two votage sources and three resistors set out like this:
R1 330 R3 100 R2 270
+ +
15V 10
- -
: Using KVL I am pretty happy with my current calculations of I1=30.516431mA, I2=18.779342mA and I3 (I1+I2)= 49.0295773mA. But I'm pulling my hair out trying to calculate the voltage over each resistor.
Using Ohm's Law I make V1=10.0704223v V2=5.07042234v and V3= 4.9295773v is this Correct?? how come the voltage doesn't add up to 25V? am I going mad???
I also have to calculate the power in the load dissapated, What does this mean?
Apologies if this is an incredibly boring and easy easy question but im pulling my hair out!!! Thanks in advance.
