  6. Now we can analyze other aspects of a circuit…in order to do this we must first simplify. R2 = 8 Ω R1 = 1 Ω 100 V 0 V R3 = 8 Ω 1 = 1 + 1 R2,3 R2 R3 1 = 1 + 1 = 2 = 4 Ω R2,38 Ω8 Ω8 Ω R1 = 1 Ω R2,3 = 4 Ω 100 V 0 V

  7. Next simplified the circuit down to one resistor. R1 = 1 Ω R2,3 = 4 Ω 100 V 0 V Series = RT = R1 + R2,3 RT = 1 Ω + 4 Ω RT = 5 Ω RT = 5 Ω 100 V 0 V

  8. We went from R2 = 8 Ω R1 = 1 Ω 100 V 0 V R3 = 8 Ω to R1 = 1 Ω R2,3 = 4 Ω 100 V 0 V to RT = 5 Ω 100 V 0 V

  9. Next find the total current flowing through the simplified circuit. RT = 5 Ω 100 V 0 V IT = VT RT Now we can go back and un-simplify the circuit and find the current and voltage through specific resistors… IT = 100 V 5 Ω IT = 20 A

  10. Find the current and voltage through R1. Hint: Always find current first, then voltage. RT = 5 Ω 100 V 0 V R1 = 1 Ω R2,3 = 4 Ω 100 V 0 V We already found the current through RT and since this is a series circuit IT = I1 = I2,3 so I1 = 20 A. Next find voltage…

  11. R1 = 1 Ω R2,3 = 4 Ω 100 V 0 V I1 = 20 A I2,3 = 20 A In a series circuit VT = V1 + V2,3 so the voltages across both of these resistors will add up to 100 V. V1 = I1R1 V2,3 = I2,3R2,3 V1 = (20A)(1 Ω) V2,3 = (20A)(4 Ω) V1 = 20 V V2,3 = 80 V Let’s check to see if the voltages make sense: VT = V1 + V2,3 100 V = 20 V + 80 V

  12. Now we can find the separate currents and voltages through R2 and R3. R1 = 1 Ω R2,3 = 4 Ω 100 V 0 V I1 = 20 A I2,3 = 20 A R2 = 8 Ω R1 = 1 Ω 100 V I2,3 = 20 A 0 V I1 = 20 A R3 = 8 Ω

  13. V2,3 = 80 V R2 = 8 Ω R1 = 1 Ω 100 V I2,3 = 20 A 0 V I1 = 20 A V1 = 20 V R3 = 8 Ω R2 and R3 are in parallel so we know that V2,3 = V2 = V3 therefore V2 and V3 are 80 V. Now we can find I2 and I3. I2 = V2,3 R2 I3 = V2,3 R3 I2 = 80 V 8 Ω I3 = 80 V 8 Ω I2 = 10 A I3 = 10 A

  14. Let’s try another one… R1 = 4 Ω R2 = 2 Ω 100 V 0 V R3 = 6 Ω Resistors R1 and R2 are in series so R1,2 = R1 + R2 R1,2 = R1 + R2 R1,2 = 4 Ω + 2 Ω = 6 Ω R1,2 = 6 Ω 100 V 0 V R3 = 6 Ω

  15. R1,2 = 6 Ω 100 V 0 V R3 = 6 Ω 1 = 1 + 1 RT R1,2 R3 1 = 1 + 1 = 2 = 3 Ω RT6 Ω6 Ω6 Ω RT = 3 Ω 100 V 0 V

  16. R1 = 4 Ω R2 = 2 Ω 100 V 0 V R3 = 6 Ω R1,2 = 6 Ω 100 V 0 V R3 = 6 Ω RT = 3 Ω 100 V 0 V

  17. What do we do next? RT = 3 Ω 100 V 0 V IT = VT RT IT = 100 V 3 Ω IT = 33.33 A Next we un-simplify the circuit and find the rest…

  18. R1,2 = 6 Ω 100 V IT = 33.33 A 0 V R3 = 6 Ω Since R1,2 and R3 are in parallel they have voltage in common: VT = V1,2 = V3 therefore V1,2 and V3 are both 100 V. We can now find each resistors individual current flow, IT = I1,2 + I3. I1,2 = V1,2 R1,2 I3 = V3 R3 I1,2 = 100 V 6 Ω I3 = 100 V 6 Ω I1,2 = 16.67 A I3 = 16.67 A

  19. Now let’s separate R1 and R2… R1,2 = 6 Ω 100 V 0 V R3 = 6 Ω I1,2 = 16.67 A R1 = 4 Ω R2 = 2 Ω 100 V 0 V R3 = 6 Ω I3 = 16.67 A

  20. I1,2 = 16.67 A R1 = 4 Ω R2 = 2 Ω 100 V 0 V R3 = 6 Ω I3 = 16.67 A R1 and R2 are in series with each other so they have the same amount of current flowing through them: I1,2 = I1 = I2 therefore the current flowing through both of them is 16.67 A which will help us find the voltage drop across each resistor. V1 = I1,2R1 V2 = I1,2R2 V1 = (16.67A)(4 Ω) V2 = (16.67A)(2 Ω) V1 = 66.68 V V2 = 33.34 V

  21. Let’s try another… R2 = 4 Ω R1 = 2 Ω R4 = 3 Ω 21 V 0 V R3 = 4 Ω Remember the steps: 1. Simplify the circuit so that there is only 1 resistor. 2. Find the total current of the simplified resistor. 3. Work backward, un-simplifying the circuit, finding the current and voltage of each resistor along the way. 4. Be sure to do this using the correct equations that go with that section of the circuit.

  22. 1. Simplify the circuit so that there is only 1 resistor. R2 = 4 Ω R1 = 2 Ω R4 = 3 Ω 21 V 0 V R3 = 4 Ω R1 = 2 Ω R2,3 = 2 Ω R4 = 3 Ω 21 V 0 V RT = 7 Ω 21 V 0 V

  23. 2. Find the total current of the simplified resistor. RT = 7 Ω 21 V 0 V IT = VT RT IT = 21 V 7 Ω IT = 3 A

  24. 3. Work backward, un-simplifying the circuit, finding the current and voltage of each resistor along the way. RT = 7 Ω 21 V 0 V R1 = 2 Ω R2,3 = 2 Ω R4 = 3 Ω 21 V 0 V I1 = 3 A I2,3 = 3 A I4 = 3 A V1 = I1R1 V2,3 = I2,3R2,3 V4 = I4R4 V1 = (3 A)(2 Ω) V2,3 = (3 A)(2 Ω) V4 = (3 A)(3 Ω) V1 = 6 V V2,3 = 6 V V4 = 9 V

  25. R1 = 2 Ω R2,3 = 2 Ω R4 = 3 Ω 21 V 0 V I1 = 3 A I2,3 = 3 A I4 = 3 A V1 = 6 V V2,3 = 6 V V4 = 9 V V2 = 6 V R2 = 4 Ω R1 = 2 Ω R4 = 3 Ω 21 V I2,3 = 3 A 0 V I2 = V2 R2 I3 = V3 R3 R3 = 4 Ω V3 = 6 V I2 = 6 V 4Ω I3 = 6 V 4Ω I2 = 1.5 A I3 = 1.5 A

  26. Let’s try another… R2 = 3 Ω R3 = 3 Ω R1 = 1 Ω R5 = 1 Ω 30 V 0 V R4 = 6 Ω Remember the steps: 1. Simplify the circuit so that there is only 1 resistor. 2.
