☑️12 - Nodal Analysis involving Current Sources

In this lesson, we shall learn how to solve circuits problem using nodal analysis. In this video we shall focus on circuits involving only current sources.
Nodal and Mesh analysis provides a really easy way of solving circuits current and voltages. They base on kirchhoffs laws.
Nodal analysis bases on kirchhoff's current laws which is applied at non-referenced nodes.
In this lesson we shall solve two examples.
Steps to solve circuits using nodal analysis
1. Identify reference nodes, label non-referenced nodes and assign current in the circuit.
2. Apply kcl at each non-referenced node to obtain the current equations and ohms law to obtain the node voltages.
3. Solve the equations obtained simultaneously, if the equations obtained are more than two, it is preferred to use cramer's rule or matrix inversion method while you can use method of elimination and substitution for two equations.
NB: the number of non-referenced nodes gives an indication of the number of equations you are going to obtain.
