In the circuit shown in Figure P3.5, the source and node voltages are VS1 = VS2 = 110V VA = 103V VB = ?107V Determine the voltage across each of the five resistors.


Known quantities:



Circuit shown in Figure P3.5 with source and node voltages:





Find:

The voltage across each of the five resistors.



Analysis:

Assume a polarity for the voltages across R1 and R2 (e.g., from ground to node A, and from node B to ground). R1 is connected between node A and ground; therefore, the voltage across R1 is equal to this node voltage. R2 is connected between node B and ground; therefore, the voltage across R2 is equal to this voltage.





The two node voltages are with respect to the ground which is given.

Assume a polarity for the voltage across R3 (e.g., from node B to node A). Then:



Assume polarities for the voltages across R4 and R5 (e.g., from node A to ground , and from ground to node B):
