Voltage And Current Laws 3.1-3.5

Question 1

A network that appears as a number of simple elements and then a set of connecting leads(wires)

Answer 1

Lumped parameter Network

Question 2

Node

Answer 2

A point at which two or more elements have a common connection

Question 3

Path

Answer 3

If no node was encountered more than once then the set of notes and elements that we passed through is to find as a path

Question 4

Loop

Answer 4

If the note at which we started is the same as the note on which we ended then the path is by definition a closed path or a loop

Question 5

Branch

Answer 5

A single path in a network composed of one simple element and the node at each end of that element

Question 6

Kirchhoff’s law or KCl

Answer 6

The algebraic sum of the currents entering any node is zero.

A mathematical statement of the fact that charge cannot accumulate at a node

Question 7

Parallel circuits

Answer 7

Elements in a circuit have in common voltage across them are said to be connected in parallel
