1. Establish a normal tree. tree branches--Us, C(, R) cot ree(chords)-i,,(, R) 2. Assign voltage and current variables. Assign a voltage (with polarity reference) to every capacitor and a current(with arrow) to every inductor; there are the state variables. Indicate the voltage across every tree branch and the current through every link in terms of the source voltages, source currents,and the state
