Finding current using Kirchhoff's circuit rules
Thanks, that makes more sense now. I might have eventually realized that my system was cancelling out because it was using mutually derived equations, but I probably never would have realized that I was treating I_{3} as if it were flowing in two directions at once. Using two of the...- slaufer

Finding current using Kirchhoff's circuit rules
Homework Statement Homework Equations Kirchhoff's loop rule and (maybe) Kirchhoff's current law The Attempt at a Solution So I attempted to apply Kirchhoff's loop rule to the circuit, and ended up with a system of linear equations: 24 - 6I_{1} - 3I_{3} = 0 \rightarrow...- slaufer
