Math Problem Statement
Solution
The circuit shown involves calculating the voltage using the principle of superposition, as the problem is labeled with "Überlagerungssatz" (Superposition Theorem).
Given Formula:
The voltage is given as:
Where:
- , , and are resistances,
- and are the currents from the two current sources.
Explanation:
-
Superposition Theorem: The superposition theorem states that in a linear circuit with multiple independent sources, the total response (voltage or current) is the sum of the responses caused by each source acting alone, with all other sources replaced by their internal impedances (short circuit for voltage sources and open circuit for current sources).
-
Analyzing the Circuit:
- The two current sources and contribute currents in opposite directions.
- The resistances , , and form a network that determines how the currents are distributed.
-
Equivalent Resistance: The equivalent resistance seen by each current source is derived from the configuration of , , and .
-
Voltage Calculation: The voltage across the resistance is calculated based on the contribution of each current source, weighted by the network's resistances.
To Solve:
- Plug in the values of , , , , and into the given formula.
- Simplify the expression to find the voltage .
