Tutorial on Basic Elements and Circuit Laws - Part 4


In the figure below, it can be seen that the 5A current from the current source also goes through the 18V battery and the 10W resistor.

In this way, KCL is solved by inspection. Now all you need to do is apply Ohm's Law:
V = IR = 5 x 10 = 50V


Now let's add another circuit element and solve again.

Find the voltage V.
