Kirchhoff’s First Rule“Loop Rule” or “Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law (KVL)”
"When any closed circuit loop is traversed, the algebraic sum of the changes in potential must equal zero."

Our convention:•Voltage gains enter with a + sign, and voltage drops
enter with a sign.•We choose a direction for the current and move around
the circuit in that direction.•When a battery is traversed from the negative terminal to
the positive terminal, the voltage increases, and hence the battery voltage enters KVL with a + sign.
•When moving across a resistor, the voltage drops, and hence enters KVL with a sign.

Question 3
(a) I1 < I0 (b) I1 = I0 (c) I1 > I0
•From symmetry the potential (Va-Vb) before the switch is closed is Va-Vb = +12V.
• Therefore, when the switch is closed, potential stays
the same and NO additional current will flow!
• Therefore, the current before the switch is closed is equal to the current after the switch is closed.
• Consider the circuit shown. – The switch is initially open and the current
flowing through the bottom resistor is I0.
– Just after the switch is closed, the current flowing through the bottom resistor is I1.
– What is the relation between I0 and I1?

• Write a loop law for original loop:

Kirchhoff’s Second Rule“Junction Rule” or “Kirchhoff’s Current Law (KCL)”
• In deriving the formula for the equivalent resistance of 2 resistors in parallel, we applied Kirchhoff's Second Rule (the junction rule).
"At any junction point in a circuit where the current can divide (also called a node), the sum of the currents into the node must equal the sum of the currents out of the node."
• This is just a statement of the conservation of charge at any given node.

• The currents entering and leaving circuit nodes are known as “branch currents”.
• Each distinct branch must have a current, Iiassigned to it
How to use Kirchhoff’s LawsA two loop example:
•Assume currents in each section of the circuit, identify all circuit nodes and use KCL.

Four identical resistors are connected to a battery as shown in the figure.
5) How does the current through the battery change after the switch is closed ?
a) Iafter > Ibefore
b) Iafter = Ibefore
c) Iafter < Ibefore
Before: Rtot = 3R Ibefore = 1/3 E/R
After: R23 = 2R R423 = 2/3 R Rtot = 5/3 R
Iafter = 3/5 E/R
