Solve Kirchhoff Problem: Find I1, I2, I3
I think next would be to use algebra and the three equations to solve for each, right? So, I1 = .155 I2 = .332 I3 = .177 and this is amps, correct? Since it's current?- James.Garland

Solve Kirchhoff Problem: Find I1, I2, I3
So for the next step, I think it is to write equations for the relationship between the individual loops, right? So for the right loop, would it be 15 I1 +20 I2 = 9 Volts ? and for the left, 20 I2 + 30 I3 = 12 Volts ?- James.Garland

I don't really understand but are you saying to have V=20*I2 - 15*I1 - 30*I3 ?- James.Garland

Solve Kirchhoff Problem: Find I1, I2, I3
Okay, so at the bottom junction it looks like I1 and I3 are going in and I2 is leaving, so is the junction rule I1+I3=I2 ?- James.Garland

So the positive end on the 12 V is the left and the 9 V is the right. We haven't really done these in class at all...- James.Garland

Homework Statement Find I1, I2, I3 http://i58.tinypic.com/hwg4y0.png (Problem included in image) Homework Equations Junction Rule, Kirchhoff, Ohms Law The Attempt at a Solution I don't understand Kirchhoff at all. All i got was I2=I1+I3 and I think that might be wrong.- James.Garland
