Theory for Kirchhoff's Current and Kirchhoff's Volatage Law

a) Kirchhoff's Voltage law states that the algebraic sum of the voltage around any closed path in a given circuit is always zero. In any circuit, voltage drops across the resistors always have polarities opposite to the source polarity. When the current passes through the resistor, there is a loss in energy and therefore a voltage drop. In any element, the current flows from a higher potential to lower potential. Consider the fig shown above in which there are 3 resistors are in series. According to kickoff's voltage law.

V = V1 + V2 + V3

b) Kirchhoff's current law states that the sum of the currents entering a node equal to the sum of the currents leaving the same node. Consider the fig shown above in which there are 3 parallel paths. According to Kirchhoff's current law.

I = I1 + I2 + I3

Procedure for Kirchhoff's Voltage law:

1. Connect the circuit as shown in fig (2a).

2. Measure the voltages across the resistors.

3. Observe that the algebraic sum of voltages in a closed loop is zero.

Procedure for Kirchhoff's current law:

1. Connect the circuit as shown in fig (2b).

2. Measure the currents through the resistors.

3. Observe that the algebraic sum of the currents at a node is zero.
