In given circuit, the value of currents I1, I2 and I3 are

A

σ1\sigma_{1}

B

σ2\sigma_{2}

C

σ1+σ2\sigma_{1} + \sigma_{2}

D

σ1+σ22\frac{\sigma_{1} + \sigma_{2}}{2}

Answer

σ1\sigma_{1}

Explanation

Solution

:

Applying kirchhoff’s voltage law,

In loop I, 276I22I1+24=0- 27 - 6I_{2} - 2I_{1} + 24 = 0

6I2+2I1=36I_{2} + 2I_{1} = - 3 …(i)

In loop II, 276I2+4I3=06I24I3=27- 27 - 6I_{2} + 4I_{3} = 0 6I_{2} - 4I_{3} = - 27 …(ii)

At junction P, I1I2I3=0I_{1} - I_{2} - I_{3} = 0 …(iii)

Solving equations (i), (ii) and (iii) we get

I1=3A,I2=3/2A,I3=9/2A.I_{1} = 3A,I_{2} = - 3/2A,I_{3} = 9/2A.
