Computer analysis of the circuit in Figure P 3.8-6 shows that ia 0.5 mA and ib 4.5 mA

Chapter 3, Problem P 3.8-6

(choose chapter or problem)

Computer analysis of the circuit in Figure P 3.8-6 shows that \(i_a = 0.5\) mA and \(i_b = 4.5\) mA. Was the computer analysis done correctly?

Hint: First, verify that the KCL equations for all five nodes are satisfied when \(i_a = 0.5\) mA, and \(i_b = 4.5\) mA. Next, verify that the KVL equation for the lower left mesh (a-e-d-a) is satisfied. (The KVL equations for the other meshes aren’t useful because each involves an unknown voltage.)
