Review3:24
Review current division and voltage division with parallel and series resistors. Revisit Ohm's law, delta V equals I R, and Kirchhoff's laws to analyze circuits.
Example 1 - Current Division11:41
Plan before solving, then simplify the resistor network by identifying series and parallel parts. Use current division to find currents I1 and I2 and the voltage drop V3.
Example 2 - Voltage Division8:50
Explore voltage division in a resistor network by simplifying series and parallel resistors, then apply voltage division to determine voltage drop across seven kilohm resistor from a 3-volt source.
Example 3 - Voltage Division8:51
Use series and parallel resistor reductions with voltage division to find the voltage across the 4.59-ohm resistor in a 2-volt input, then apply V^2/R to determine its power absorption.
Example 4 - Current Division7:18
Apply current division to a resistor network, simplify series and parallel connections, and use Kirchhoff's current law to determine the currents through each resistor.
Summary0:53
Review the basic rules and laws for fast circuit analysis, including current division and voltage division equations, derived from Ohm's law and Kirchhoff's current and voltage laws.

Description

Day 11 of Linear Circuits. Lots of example using Voltage Division and Current Division to simplify our circuit analysis work. Remember, this is just applying what we have already learned about Ohm's Law, Kirchhoff's Current Law, and Kirchhoff's Voltage Law.

The material covers all of the lecture material from an eleventh lecture in a traditional, sophomore-level linear circuits class.
