Kirchoff's voltage law Definition and 31 Threads

Figure 1, Figure 2 *I'm using his textbook's rule in applying KVL here: $$ \begin{aligned} 21I_1 + 4.8I_3 &= 100 &&\textrm{Loop I (clockwise)}\\ 24I_2 + 4.8I_3 &= 0 &&\textrm{Loop II (clockwise)} \\ I_1 &= I_2 + I_3 \end{aligned} $$ From the above equations, I get ##I_3 \approx 4.63\textrm{...

Hello, I'm struggling with the conditions under which makes sense employ a two-port 'external' representation of a quadripole (four-terminal electrical network) when interconnected to an external circuit (to take it simple assume a linear + permanent electrical network). Starting from circuit...

Homework Statement Here is the problem in question. The only values given are those shown on the circuit labels. We are asked to form a voltage equation using Kirchoff's voltage law with specific loops. We were NOT asked to solve the equations for the currents. Homework Equations Sum of...

Why can't Kirchoff's Laws be applied to a non-conservative circuit?. I'll be looking forward to a good discussion.

Hello Guys My Question about Kirchoff's Law is : why in this Example we considered that E2 is a Voltage Drop not a Voltage Rise ?? i mean why we didn't say that : +E2-V1-V2+E2=0 ? and Thanks Guys :)) !

There is an idea that Kirchoff's voltage law could not be applied to circuit containing coils like this link. What makes me confused is that almost all books apply Kirchoff's voltage law to RL and RLC circuit.

Homework Statement Differentiate V0 - iR - q/C = 0 to prove that di/dt = -i/RC. Homework Equations V0 - iR - q/C = 0 ^ derived from previous question for a circuit that had one battery with emf V0, a resistor of resistance R and a capacitor of capacitance C (all in series). di/dt =...

A simple electric circuit (such as one composed of a battery with Emf V and resistor with resistance R) is in an electrodynamic state since the battery's potential difference creates an electric field in the circuit's wires, which in turn moves charges around. So potential difference in wires is...

What is the voltage across vc(0) in the diagram below? The solution says its 10V but I don't know how they got that. Through KVL, I got 0V. Since all the current flows through the left most circuit, iA = 10/1000 = .01A 3k and 1k(right) resistors have no current. -10 + 1000iA + vc = 0 vc =...

Hi, when summing the votages when using Kirchoff's voltage law around some loop, why do anywhere they take L(dI/dt) as the voltage fall on the inductance (if we sum the voltage in the current direction)? If I understand well , if there is a current in some direction, the induced voltage...

a series circuit with an inductance of 15mH, a capacitance of 35*10^(-6) F and a resistance of 5 ohms conatain a sinusoidal source of emf with a frequency of 500Hz. The frequency with which the charge on the capacitor oscillates is? i think that it should still be 500Hz, right?
