Loop (0, 1, 2, 0)
V0,1 + V1,2 + V2,0 = 0 V
-3 V + VR1 - VR3 = 0 V
Loop (0, 3, 2, 0)
V0,3 + V3,2 + V2,0 = 0 V
VR4 + VR2 - VR3 = 0 V
For example:
V1,2 = - V2,1 = VR1
Nodal Analysis 1
entering
leaving
A current is entering the node if the current is leaving the device.
A current is leaving the node if the current is entering the device.

Apply Ohm’s Law (I = V/R) for R1:
current entering node 2 = (V1 - V2) / R1
current leaving node 2 = (V2 - V1) / R1

Substitute the known voltages into the equations that were obtained at nodes 2 & 3
Solve the two equations for V2 and V3
You can put the two equations in matrix form and solve using Matlab or any
mathematics program (or your calculator).
