This weeks reading is dedicated to the Mesh Analysis technique which is the second part of chapter 3. This is an analysis technique that students tend to love I think because it avoids all that fractional work that is characteristic of Node-Voltage analysis. Though it is more comfortable you should recognize that I see more circuits where the NodeVoltage method leads to fewer equations than the other way around.
What are the steps in applying the Mesh Current techniue?
Which of Kirchoff's Laws are you applying to each node once you set it up?
What is a supermesh and how do you recognize one in the wild?
How do supermeshs affect your analysis?
How do you handle dependent current and voltage sources in this technique?
How many equations to you expect to have with this technique?
The answers to all of these questions are not always clear in the text. Consider refering to other texts or being sure to ask in class if you're not sure. Have fun!
