Engineering Finding Current and Voltage in a multi loop circuits

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on calculating currents in resistors and the voltage at point Vx in a multi-loop circuit using Kirchhoff's rules. The user has successfully determined the currents but is uncertain about the correct formula for Vx. Two potential equations for Vx are proposed: Vx = 1k(I8) and Vx = 6k(I3) + 2.5k(I4) + 4k(I6). The conversation indicates a need for clarification on voltage calculations in complex circuits. Ultimately, understanding the relationship between current and voltage in this context is essential for accurate analysis.

Homework Statement



1. Find the current in each resistor and voltage at point Vx


Homework Equations



Using Kirchoff's rule and system of equation I found currents but I am not quite sure how to calculate voltage at point Vx. I am pretty sure I got the currents right.

Is it Vx = 1k(I8) ?

or is it Vx = 6k(I3) + 2.5k(I4) + 4k(I6) ?

Well, I'd know what to do about the capacitor and the 2K resistor right off the bat ...
