Overview
Use mesh analysis to analysis the circuit in the figure below.
Pre-lab
Using the mesh analysis technique, find V1 and V2.
V1 = 2.42 volts |
V2 = 4.44 volts |
Percentage error for V1
((2.42-2.35) / (2.35))*100 = % 2.98 error for V1
Percentage error for V2
((4.44-4.36) / (4.36))*100 = % 2.07 error for V2
Comments
Originally, despite having a slight understanding of breadboards, our calculated values were not matching our actual values because we had connected the ground node incorrectly.
After going home and simulating the same circuit on TinkerCad, I realized not only my mistake found in the ground node based on the photo I took, but was able to reconstruct correctly a simulated circuit using TinkerCad, resulting in fixing this error and having a small percentage error between our calculated and actual readings for V1 and V2.
