  1. Physics 102:Lecture06 Kirchhoff’s Laws • Today’s lecture will cover Textbook Sections 18.5, 7 Conflict Exam sign up available in grade book Be Careful with round off errors in homework 3! Physics 102: Lecture 6, Slide 1

  2. Solved Circuits Today • What about this one? Last Time • Resistors in series: Current thru is same; Voltage drop across is IRi Last Lecture • Resistors in parallel: Voltage drop across is same; Current thru is V/Ri Physics 102: Lecture 6, Slide 2

  3. Kirchhoff’s Rules • Kirchhoff’s Voltage Rule (KVR): • Sum of voltage drops around a loop is zero. • Kirchhoff’s Current Rule (KCR): • Current going in equals current coming out. Physics 102: Lecture 6, Slide 3

R1 I1 A - + + + R2 E3 - - + B I2 E1 I3 I4 - - - + R3 E2 - + + R5 - + Kirchhoff’s Laws • (1) Label all currents • Choose any direction (2) Label +/- for all elements Current goes +  - (for resistors) • Choose loop and direction • Must start on wire, not element. R4 • Write down voltage drops • First sign you hit is sign to use. Physics 102: Lecture 6, Slide 4

  8. ACT: KVR I1 R1=10 W Resistors R1 and R2 are 1) in parallel 2) in series 3) neither E2 = 5 V I2 R2=10 W Definition of parallel: Two elements are in parallel if (and only if) you can make a loop that contains only those two elements. IB - + E1 = 10 V Definition of series: Two elements are in series if (and only if) every loop that Contains R1 also contains R2 Physics 102: Lecture 6, Slide 8
