Q. Consider the circuit below.

a) Reduce the circuit to a two loop circuit and redraw the circuit showing the directions of the currents I₁, I₂ and I₃. (Take I₂ to flow through the central section of the circuit).

b) Using two clockwise traverse loops for the left and right sections of the circuit, calculate the values of the currents through each of the resistors.

c) Calculate the power dissipated in each of the resistors.

Solution:
