Historical Profile:
Kirchhoff's circuit laws are two equalities that deal with the conservation of charge and energy in
electrical circuits, and were first described in 1845 by Gustav Kirchhoff. Widely used in electrical
engineering, they are also called Kirchhoff's rules or simply Kirchhoff's laws.

Explanation/ Stepwise-Procedure:
Kirchhoff’s Voltage law
It states that the algebraic sum of the products of current and resistances in each of the conductors in
any closed path in a network plus the algebraic sum of the e.m.fs. in that path is zero.
Ʃ IR + Ʃ e.m.f. = 0
Kirchhoff’s current law
It states that in any electrical network, the algebraic sum of currents meeting at a point (or junction) is
zero.
