6 Example Consider the ideal circuit shown: What is the relation between V a -V d and V a -V c? 2V a 50W 20W b 2 80W d c (a) (V a -V d ) > (V a -V c ) (b) (V a -V d ) = (V a -V c ) (c) (V a -V d ) < (V a -V c ) Assume cd is a perfect conductor Still an equipotential even though this example is not static => Points d and c are the same, electrically Kirchhoff s First Rule ( Loop Rule or Kirchhoff s Voltage Law ) The algebraic sum of the changes in potential in a complete traversal of any loop of circuit must be zero Move around circuit: Based on energy conservation KVL : V n = 0 e loop R R2 e e e 2 = 0 A restatement that the potential difference is independent of path Applies to any circuit 6

7 Rules e R R2 e e e 2 = 0 Loop direction is ARBTRARY Voltage gains enter equation with a + sign Voltage drops enter equation with a - sign Battery traverse - terminal to + terminal: V increases => +e + terminal to - terminal: V drops => -e Rules e R R2 e e e 2 = 0 Resistor traverse Positive direction Voltage drops Enters the equation with a sign (-R) Negative direction Voltage rises Enters the equation with a + sign (+R) 7

8 Rules e R R2 e 2 No wrong set of paths (multi-loop circuits) Flip one path, just change every sign in that path s equation BUT e e 2 = 0 One or more of the currents in your solution may be NEGATVE Means actual current flow is opposite to the path you chose Where ONLY that one current is flowing Traverse loop from a to f in this case Loop Example b a e + - f R 4 loop V n = 0 c d + - R 3 ε 2 R 3 R 4 +ε = 0 e 2 e = ε ε R 3 + R 4 f e < e 2, will be negative, i.e., will flow clockwise, opposite to path 8
