Solving Multi-Loop Circuit Problems with a Spreadsheet.

Peer reviewed

Hart, Francis X. – Physics Teacher, 1995

Discusses the use of a spreadsheet program to vary the parameters in multiloop circuit problems. Enables students to better understand how the elements in a multiloop circuit determine the current by allowing them to see the results of the changes immediately. (JRH)
