Hi,Guys can you please help me with this. I have to hand this in tomorrow.
I'm looking for the voltage at that capacitor in the middle. Usually I do an open source KVL on it. I'm not sure if it's 14 or 0?
Could someone just please tell me. I'm realllllly short on time guys
Let's put the correct units on just one of your equations.View attachment 126266 View attachment 126267
My lecturer gave me a small extension till tomorrow. This is what I got.
I can't force you to properly track your units. When you finally decide you want to stop wasting time, start getting correct answers more of the time, and improving your grades and employment prospects considerably, you might start tracking your units.Please excuse egregious tracking of units
That's the better choice because, with a bit of experience, you can immediately see that the voltage on the right side of the capacitor will be 14 V and your voltage divider on the right will give you 2/3 of 14 V, so the voltage across the gap (left side relative to right side) has to be - (1/3) 14V.... another approach. It looks like you can use the current node approach by writing the individual branch currents into the two nodes at the top. You don't solve directly for Vc, but for the two node voltages, whose difference constitutes Vc. ... two equations, two unknowns.
It is not obvious at first, but you can convert the Ix component into terms of the node voltage ... Then you have two unknown node voltages and two equations.I ended up with the voltage because 6ix is going across that 1 ohm resistor. 1 (6ix) is 6ix? Had it been 2ohms I would have calculated 12ix
Ah. I see. So I came down on you a bit harder than I should have. My apologies.I ended up with the voltage because 6ix is going across that 1 ohm resistor. 1 (6ix) is 6ix? Had it been 2ohms I would have calculated 12ix
