How would I get the voltage of Node A and B?gneill said:
Ohm's law. You've solved for the currents so now you can find the potentials across any components you wish. Choose a path from the reference node to the location where you wish to know the potential and sum up the PD's along the way.eehelp150 said:
So if I wanted the voltage at Node A, I would multiple (I1-I2) with 10ohm resistor?gneill said:
That would work, yes. Any path from the reference node to a would work, and that happens to be a pretty convenient choiceeehelp150 said:

They look good to me.eehelp150 said:
Mesh analysis is a method used to analyze electrical circuits by dividing the circuit into smaller loops or meshes and applying Kirchhoff's voltage law (KVL) to each mesh. This allows us to determine the voltage drop across each element in the circuit and solve for unknown voltages.
The purpose of finding node A and B voltage with mesh analysis is to determine the voltage at specific nodes in an electrical circuit. This information is important in understanding the behavior of the circuit and can be used to calculate other parameters such as current and power.
Nodes in a circuit are points where two or more circuit elements are connected. To identify nodes A and B, you can trace the circuit and look for points where multiple elements intersect or are connected by a wire. These points will be the nodes.
Mesh analysis is limited to circuits that can be divided into meshes and have a closed loop. It is also not suitable for circuits with dependent sources or non-linear elements. In addition, it can become complex for circuits with a large number of meshes.
Yes, mesh analysis can be used to calculate the voltage at any node in a circuit as long as the node is part of a mesh. However, for simplicity, it is often used to find the voltage at only a few selected nodes in a circuit.
