Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Using KCL, if three currents entering a node are 5A, 3A, and 2A, what is the total current leaving the node?
  • Step 1: Identify the currents entering the node. In this case, the currents are 5A, 3A, and 2A.
  • Step 2: Add the currents that are entering the node together. Calculate 5A + 3A + 2A.
  • Step 3: Perform the addition: 5 + 3 = 8, then 8 + 2 = 10.
  • Step 4: According to Kirchhoff's Current Law (KCL), the total current entering the node must equal the total current leaving the node.
  • Step 5: Since the total current entering is 10A, this means the total current leaving the node is also 10A.
