Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law(KVL)
▪ The voltage, or potential difference, btw two points in a circuit indicates the energy required to move charge from one point to the other.

Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law(KVL)
▪ The principle underlying KVL is that no energy is lost or created in an electric circuit; in circuit terms, the sum of all voltages associated with source must equal the sum of the load voltages, so that the net voltage around a closed circuit is _________?.
