| To find $\Delta V_{\text{light}}$, we will need to set up some equations using the Loop Rule and Node Rule. We will focus on Nodes C and D, and the Loops highlighted below. Note that if you want to be able to solve for everything in the circuit, you have to use some loop equations and some node equations (you can't use only loop or only nodes). | To find $\Delta V_{\text{light}}$, we will need to set up some equations using the Loop Rule and Node Rule.
