Questions tagged [mesh-analysis]
For questions about mesh analysis, a circuit analysis method that is used to solve for the currents (and indirectly the voltages) at any place in a planar circuit (planar circuits are circuits that can be drawn on a plane surface without any wires crossing each other). Always use in conjunction with the "circuit-analysis" tag.

Why does each mesh equation give different I3 value? What's the correct value and final answer?
The provided solution considers the third eqn as the correct one and proceeds with the same alone.
Why is the answer achievable only thru the 3rd mesh and why not the first two? Why are they giving ...

Equivalent resistance of a network
Determine the equivalent resistance across the terminals \$a-b\$.
I placed a \$1V\$ battery across \$a-b\$ and then used mesh analysis on \$4\$ loops which resulted in using \$4\$ equations. But is it ...

Is there a rule for assigning polarities to resistors or is it truly arbitrary?
Sorry if this is a silly question, I'm new to circuit analysis. I'm still rather confused about how you're supposed to assign polarities to resistors in a voltage. I've been told time and time again ...

How many meshes are in this circuit? [closed]
Aren't there three meshes here? The solution also says so. I denoted the three loops that I think are meshes, but the instructor said in class that there are 5 meshes. I just cannot find the other two....

Example 3.17: find Vo in a circuit containing a voltage controlled voltage source
Trying to solve this circuit using mesh analysis. However, I am having trouble understanding why Vx = 4kI1 specifically why to go through the 4k resistor using current I1, my intuition wants to set Vx ...

Equivalent resistance of network of resistors arranged in a cube shape
To determine the equivalent resistance across \$AB\$,I noticed that the three resistors in the lower face of the cube are in parallel combination. So I replaced all three with a single resistor \$\...
