Question

Kirchhoff's second law for the analysis of circuit is based on

• A. conservation of charge
• B. conservation of energy
• C. conservation of both charge and energy
• D. conservation of momentum of electron

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

conservation of energy

Answer 2

Kirchhoff?s second law is $\Sigma V=0$ It states that 'the algebraic sum of the potential differences in any 'loop including those associated emfs and those of resistive elements, must equal zero. This law represents 'conservation of energy".
