Kirchhoff's Voltage Law for a loop is fundamentally a statement of conservation of
ACharge
BMass
CEnergy
DCurrent
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Energy
As a charge completes one closed loop and returns to its starting point, the net change in electric potential energy per unit charge must be zero.
**Hence KVL is a direct consequence of conservation of energy.**
