a

Define the Ohm's law and mention units of each quantity?

6 marks

Answer

Ohm's law states that the current flowing through a metallic conductor is directly proportional to the potential difference applied across its ends, provided that the physical conditions such as temperature remain constant.

V = I × R

Where:

  • V is the potential difference measured in Volts (V).
  • I is the current measured in Amperes (A).
  • R is the resistance measured in Ohms (Ω).
b

State and explain the Kirchoff’s Laws.

9 marks

Answer

Kirchhoff’s laws are fundamental principles used to analyze electrical circuits:

1. Kirchhoff’s Current Law (KCL): Also known as the junction rule, it states that the algebraic sum of currents meeting at any junction in an electrical circuit is zero. This is based on the law of conservation of charge.

ΣI = 0

This implies that the total current entering a junction must equal the total current leaving it.

2. Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law (KVL): Also known as the loop rule, it states that the algebraic sum of all potential differences (voltages) around any closed loop in a circuit is zero. This is based on the law of conservation of energy.

ΣV = 0

In any closed loop, the sum of the electromotive forces (EMFs) is equal to the sum of the potential drops across the resistances in that loop.
