    How do I find the the total Resistance?

    Hmm, I don't think the term "Maxwell's mesh" was explicitly stated, but what you described is what I used to derive the formulas 30 = 12i1 – 6i2 – 4i3 where – 6i2 – 4i3 would be the result of the other meshes on the loop. But again, thanks for the explanation.

    How do I find the the total Resistance?

    Ah right! The potential difference is 0.. Completely forgot about that :blushing: Yeah it totally makes sense now. Thanks for walking me through it!

    How do I find the the total Resistance?

    I'm not sure if the term "mesh analysis" is not a popular term internationally, but generally it's looking at the "closed loops" and forming the equation based on Kirchhoff's Voltage Law, namely: (assuming the big loop is i1, and the smaller loops are i2, and i3 respectively) Equation 1, mesh...

    How do I find the the total Resistance?

    Thanks for the reply! Yes it was homework, The actual question was "For the bridge network, find I0 using mesh analysis." The actual solving of this was pretty straightforward, solving 3 simultaneous equations to obtain i0 = i1 = 4.286 mA using KVL. But my question was how to analyze...

    How do I find the the total Resistance?

    Hello, This is a little basic I know, but I'm a little confused on how I would calculate the total resistance for this circuit... this circuit was actually to find I0 using mesh analysis, but I was trying to figure out the resistance to obtain I0 using ohms law. I am not sure how to...
