5. Kirchhoff's Laws The sum of the potential drops around a closed loop is zero. This follows from energy conservation and the fact that the electric field is a conservative force.
6. Example (Single Loop Circuit) How do we apply Kirchhoff’s Rule 1?
Must assume the direction of the current – assume clockwise.
Choose a starting point and sum all voltages drops around the circuit using Ohm’s Law

12. Method of determinants for solving simultaneous equations
14. Another example Find all the currents including directions.
15. Rules for solving multiloop circuits
Replace series resistors or batteries with their equivalent values.
Choose a direction for i in each loop and label diagram.
Write the junction rule equation for each junction.
Apply the loop rule n times for n interior loops.
Solve the equations for the unknowns. Use Cramer’s Rule if necessary.
Check your results by evaluating potential differences.
