[QUOTE="s3a, post: 6023003, member: 235803"] [h2]Homework Statement [/h2] Problem in Fig 2-18 and its solution: [ATTACH=full]227760[/ATTACH] [h2]Homework Equations[/h2] Passive Sign Convention, I think. [h2]The Attempt at a Solution[/h2] Let's say i is counter-clockwise. Then, it's going from - to + of v_b. Why is there not an additional negative sign in computing p_b, and why is there one in computing p_a (where i being counter-clockwise means the current is negative, despite the image having the current be clockwise)? (I'm trying to follow the work as done in the pdf I linked to.) Any input would be GREATLY appreciated! [/QUOTE]
