Example 2.17 Two batteries A and B are connected in parellel to a load of
10 W. Battery A has an EMF of 12 V and an internal resistance of 2 Ω and
Battery B has an EMF of 10 V and internal resistance of 1 Ω. Using nodal

analysis to determine the current supplied by each battery and the load
current.

Solution:

The circuit diagram of two batteries supplying a load has been shown in Fig.

2.41. Taking node C as a reference node and potential of nodes A and B be
