Kirchoff’s Rules Conservation of charge Junction (Node) Rule: At any junction point, the sum of all currents entering the junction must equal the sum of the currents leaving the junction. Conservation of energy Loop Rule: The some of the changes in potential around any closed path of a circuit must be zero.

Rule Set – Problem Solving Strategy A resistor transversed in the direction of assumed current is a negative voltage (potential drop) A resistors transversed in the opposite direction of assumed current is a positive voltage (potential rise) A battery transversed from – to + is a positive voltage. A battery transversed from + to - is a negative voltage. Ohm’s Law applies for resistors. Both the loop rule and junction rule are normally required to solve problems.

More about the Loop Rule Traveling around the loop from a to b In (a), the resistor is traversed in the direction of the current, the potential across the resistor is – IR In (b), the resistor is traversed in the direction opposite of the current, the potential across the resistor is is + IR

Loop Rule, final In (c), the source of emf is traversed in the direction of the emf (from – to +), and the change in the electric potential is +ε In (d), the source of emf is traversed in the direction opposite of the emf (from + to -), and the change in the electric potential is -ε
