Options
- A1.4 , A , 0.4 , A , -0.6 , A
- B0.4 , A , -0.6 , A , 1.4 , A
- C1.4 , A , -0.6 , A , 0.4 , A
- D-0.6 , A , 1.4 , A , 0.4 , A
Correct answer
C. 1.4 , A , -0.6 , A , 0.4 , A
Step-by-step solution
Let the nodes of the network be identified by their positions. Applying Kirchhoff's Current Law (KCL) at the top-left node: The current entering the node is I₅ and the current leaving is I₆ . I₆ = I₅ Given I₅ = 0.4 , A , we get I₆ = 0.4 , A . Applying KCL at the bottom-left node: The currents entering the node are I₃ and I₄ , and the current leaving is I₅ . I₃ + I₄ = I₅ Substituting the given values I₄ = 1 , A and I₅ = 0.4 , A : I₃ + 1 = 0.4 I₃ = -0.6 , A Applying KCL at the bottom-right node: The currents entering
