Help with Unfinished Problem: File Size Issues

[csmith23]

Hello all. I am doing a basic circuit problem but ran got into a bind. I have a independent current source and need help finding the voltage drop of that current source. I did some research and found that current sources will always carry the same voltage as the power source no matter what's in between. However this independent current source as a voltage dependent on the same node as the current source, but the power source is parallel to the current source. Thanks in advance!

Help on unfinished problem

Im really hoping everyone can access this. I tried a million different file types and it constantly said I exceeded the file size.

Hi csmith23,

I am also learning circuits right now and so I could be wrong, but have you tried applying Kirchoffs' voltage law around the first loop?

 

[csmith23]

I did that shortly after posting this. And I got 85 volts. Can anyone confirm if that is correct?

Yep! I got the same answer.

$$V_A=V_x+4V_y+10i=4+4(5)+10(6)=85V$$
I got $i=6$ by applying KCL around the first node.
