Need help with Nodal Analysis. I have the work, just need a step explained.

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on a request for assistance with nodal analysis in a circuit problem. The user is struggling to progress from the nodal equations to the next steps in their solution. A helpful response suggests replacing Ix with V1/10K in equation (2) to derive an expression for V1, which can then be substituted back into equation (1) to solve for V2. The user expresses gratitude for the clarification and acknowledges their initial confusion. The exchange highlights the importance of clear guidance in understanding nodal analysis techniques.

V=IR, Nodal Analysis

The Attempt at a Solution



1 and 2 in the diagram are the nodal equations. Considering that the left node is V1 and that the right node is V2. I don't know how to get from the nodal equations to step 3. I know that you go from step 3 to step 4 using V=IR.

I tried solving the nodal equations to get to step 3...

Can someone please work it out for me? Thank you

Please help

In (2) replace Ix with V1/10K. Solve for an expression for V1. Substitute this expression for V1 into (1). Solve for V2. All done.

Ohh wow. Now I feel dumb(er, as many would argue here at pf)...

Thanks for the help gneill!
 
TL;DR Summary: I came across this question from a Sri Lankan A-level textbook. Question - An ice cube with a length of 10 cm is immersed in water at 0 °C. An observer observes the ice cube from the water, and it seems to be 7.75 cm long. If the refractive index of water is 4/3, find the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. I could not understand how the apparent height of the ice cube in the water depends on the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. Does anyone have an...
Kindly see the attached pdf. My attempt to solve it, is in it. I'm wondering if my solution is right. My idea is this: At any point of time, the ball may be assumed to be at an incline which is at an angle of θ(kindly see both the pics in the pdf file). The value of θ will continuously change and so will the value of friction. I'm not able to figure out, why my solution is wrong, if it is wrong .
