first law (Junction Theorem)
At a junction, the total current entering the junction is equal to the total current leaving the junction.
Kirchoff's second law
( Loop Theorem ) The net e.m.f. round a circuit is equal to the sum of the p.d.s round the loop.
The
maximum power theorem Power dissipated in a load is maximum when the resistance of the load is equal to the internal resistance of the source.
