Which statement is most consistent with both Kirchhoff laws for an ideal circuit?
ACharge is conserved at junctions and energy is conserved around loops
BEnergy is conserved at junctions and charge is conserved around loops
CCurrent is created at nodes and destroyed in loops
DVoltage is the same as current in every branch
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Charge is conserved at junctions and energy is conserved around loops
KCL reflects conservation of charge at a node, and KVL reflects conservation of energy around a closed loop. The other options confuse the meanings of current, voltage, charge, and energy.
