A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Kirchhoff’s voltage and current laws

Kirchhoff’s laws—Voltage Law (KVL) and Current Law (KCL)—are the backbone of circuit analysis. KVL states that the algebraic sum of all voltages around any closed loop equals zero, while KCL asserts that the algebraic sum of currents entering a node equals zero.
