In this presentation a two-loop circuit is analyzed:• animation is used to demonstrate choosing current direction and generating
resistor polarities• Creating a junction point equation• the idea of generating loop equations by “walking the loop” is demonstrated via
an animated “robot cockroach voltmeter.”

A circuit is constructed with known
battery emfs (દ1 and દ2) and known
resistances (R1, R2, and R3); we wish
to know the values of the currents.

We will use Kirchhoff’s Rules as follows:
At a JUNCTION POINT the currents in must equal the currents out.
Around any CLOSED LOOP the sum of the potential differences (voltages) must equal zero.

These three equations
I1 = I2 + I3
દ1 – I1R1 – I2R2 = 0
I2R2 – દ2 – I3R3 = 0can be solved for the three
unknown currents.
