Kirchhoff laws-activity

Front

What is Kirchhoff's Voltage Law?

Back

The sum of all voltage drops in a series circuit equals the total applied voltage.

Front

What does Kirchhoff's Current Law state?

Back

The total current entering a junction equals the total current leaving the junction.

Front

What is Kirchhoff's loop rule?

Back

The total potential difference across a closed loop is zero.

Front

What does Kirchhoff's junction rule state?

Back

The current entering a point is equal to the current leaving that point.

Front

In a series circuit, how do the voltages across each component relate to the total voltage?

Back

The sum of the voltages across each component equals the total voltage applied.

Front

How does current behave in a parallel circuit according to Kirchhoff's Current Law?

Back

The total current in a parallel circuit equals the sum of the individual branch currents.

Front

What is the significance of Kirchhoff's laws in circuit analysis?

Back

They provide fundamental principles for analyzing electrical circuits.

Front

What is the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance in a circuit?

Back

Ohm's Law states that V = I * R, where V is voltage, I is current, and R is resistance.

Front

What happens to the total current in a series circuit?

Back

The current remains the same throughout all components in a series circuit.

Front

What is the effect of adding more branches in a parallel circuit?

Back

Adding more branches decreases the total resistance and increases the total current.
