Hi,

I have the following circuit
[PLAIN]http://img245.imageshack.us/img245/8193/upg553.png

I need to solve for the node voltages V1 and V2.

Im not sure how to deal with this when complex resistance are involved.

Also, do you start by writing expressions for the mesh currents [tex]I_1,I_2, I_3[/tex] ?

Advice appreciated.

The 'complex resistances' are impedences (z).
