    On the bottom because I can
    see that you couldn't see it.
  • 0:03 - 0:07
    Okay, when we first started this
    problem we were given Vs Is and that
  • 0:07 - 0:13
    the resistances and we were asked to find
    all of the currents which we just did.
  • 0:13 - 0:17
    Now we'd like to be able to find
    the power from this particular source.
  • 0:17 - 0:19
    Well, how do I find power?
  • 0:19 - 0:23
    Let me look in my toolbox of
    possible equations to use.
  • 0:23 - 0:25
    Here we used Kirchoff's Law.
  • 0:25 - 0:30
    And here is how we, and
    this is how we calculate power.
  • 0:30 - 0:34
    So when I had Kirchhoff's Law I
    knew my current source and
  • 0:34 - 0:38
    my voltage source and my resistance and
    I was able to calculate current.
  • 0:38 - 0:42
    Now, if I want power,
    I need to have one of these three things.
  • 0:42 - 0:45
    I need to have voltage
    difference in the current, or
  • 0:45 - 0:49
    voltage difference in resistance,
    or current in resistance.
  • 0:49 - 0:53
    Here I have,
    can I have voltage difference and current?
  • 0:53 - 0:57
    I certainly have current, I've got I but
    I don't have voltage difference.
  • 0:57 - 0:59
    So how can I get voltage difference?
  • 0:59 - 1:02
    Well, there are several tools that I
    have for getting voltage difference.
  • 1:02 - 1:05
    And this is actually the one
    that I'm going to use.
  • 1:05 - 1:08
    If I have, oops, is that the one I want?
  • 1:08 - 1:12
    Sure, voltage difference is
    current times resistance.
  • 1:12 - 1:14
    So I have current, and I have resistance.
  • 1:14 - 1:17
    Right here I have current and resistance,
    so I can get voltage difference.
  • 1:17 - 1:20
    So watch how I'm going
    to solve this problem.
  • 1:20 - 1:25
    I'm going to use Kirchoff's Law with
    my known sources to find current.
  • 1:25 - 1:32
    And then I'm going to use my current and
    resistance to find voltage difference.
  • 1:32 - 1:35
    And then, kind of here in a line,
  • 1:35 - 1:41
    I'm going to use my voltage difference and
    my resistance to find power.
  • 1:41 - 1:43
    So let's see how we do that.
  • 1:46 - 1:47
    Let's flip this over.
  • 1:49 - 1:54
    Okay, now I know I one,
    two, three, and IX.
  • 1:54 - 1:55
    I also know my resistances.
  • 1:55 - 1:57
    So the next thing I'm going to do.
  • 1:57 - 1:59
    Remember I use my
    Kirchoff's Law to get those.
  • 1:59 - 2:03
    Now I'm going to use Ohm's Law to
    find the voltage difference, and
  • 2:03 - 2:06
    the voltage difference
    is going to be V3 here.
  • 2:06 - 2:10
    So V3 is going to be I3 times R3.
  • 2:11 - 2:16
    That's the same voltage difference
    that is across this current source, so
  • 2:16 - 2:23
    if I had V current source, let's call
    it VS2, that would be equal to V3.
  • 2:24 - 2:28
    Now, I've used my Kirchoff's Law
    to find my current.
  • 2:28 - 2:31
    I've used my Ohm's Law to
    find my voltage difference.
  • 2:31 - 2:36
    And now, I want to use my Power
    equation in order to find the power.
  • 2:36 - 2:41
    So, the power is equal to VS2 times Is,
  • 2:41 - 2:45
    which is equal to I3R3 times Is.
