Kirchoffs current law. Someone check to make sure its correct?
Click For Summary
SUMMARY
The discussion centers on Kirchhoff's Current Law (KCL) applied to a circuit with a series configuration. The participants confirm that the currents Ic and Id are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction. With Ia set at 3A and Ic at 1A, the calculations show that Id equals -1A, leading to the conclusion that Ib must equal 4A. The final equations confirm the relationships among the currents, validating the application of KCL in this scenario.
