A resistor obeys Ohm's law (\$\small V=I\cdot R\$); the current through it is equal to the voltage across it divided by the resistance (equivalently \$I=\frac{V}{R}\$).

What's wrong with my answer finding the resistance?

I think I found it: The mistake happened in Step 3: it should be: $$ -(-2) + V_{src} + 2\cdot I = 0 \\ 2 -6 + 2\cdot I = 0\\ I = 2\mathrm{A} $$ Then, step 4: $$ 1 - 2 - I_1 = 0 \\ I_1 = -1\,\mathr …

Trouble finding the R(equivalent) in this circuit

The equivalent resistance R2 for parallel resistors 24Ω and 12Ω is 8Ω (24x12/24+12). The equivalent resistance R3 for resistors in series R2 and 22Ω is 30Ω (8+22). … The equivalent resistance R4 for parallel resistors R3 and 45Ω is 18Ω (30x45/30+45). The equivalent resistance Rab for resistors in series R1 and 18Ω is 30Ω (12+18). Why is the final answer 34Ω? …

Is my circuit analysis correct in this problem?

This is the problem: My solution: I'm new the delta-to-y and y-to-delta transformation, it is obvious we need to use them. I got the same answer but I'm a bit skeptical about my solution. Is my …

How do I find the resistance between three terminals?

I'm trying to self-study this problem and I found a bizarre problem with an unusual circuit. I have never faced this in all the problems that I have solved. What do they mean by finding the equival …

Can't find the correct voltage and current source

What I tried to do: The equivalent resistor R1 for the 12 and 4 ohm resistors is 3 (12x4/12+4). The equivalent resistor R2 for the 4 and 12 ohm resistors is 3 (4x12/4+12). …
