Kirchhoffs Voltage Law

 


Kirchhoffs Voltage Law or KVL, states that “in any closed loop network being driven by a voltage source, the total voltage around the loop is equal to the sum of all the voltage drops within the same loop” which is equal to zero.


1. Two led series circuit
Voltage across battery: 6 volts
Voltage across resistor: 2.4 volts
Voltage across led1: 1.8 volts
Voltage across led2: 1.8 volts

  Resistors can be used also to reduce the voltage supplied to different parts of a circuit. »» One 6-volt battery (4*1.5)  »» jumper wire  »» One 2.2 kΩ resistor »» One 3.3 kΩ resistor  »»breadboard   Next, use your multimeter set to volts DC to measure the voltage across the bat- tery and across the resistors. My measurements show that the actual battery voltage is 4.8 V Vout (the voltage across the 2.2kΩ resistor) is 1.9 V. and Vout (the voltage across the 3.3kΩ resistor) is 2.9 V. and

  I used 3 type of resistor  3.3KΩ - 2.2kΩ - 1kΩ parallel circuit  in which each branch contains a different value of resistance. For higher values of resistance, the cur- rent that passes through that branch is restricted more, so the LED in that branch emits less light.
