More on Power
As in our example, power absorbed by a resistor must be positive!
V
R
= I R
Therefore P
ABS_R
= IV = I I R = I

R 0
Conservation of Energy or Power Rule
The sum of all the power absorbed by all N elements tied together in a circuit must equal
zero!
From previous example, P
ABS_IS
+ P
ABS- R
= -5/2W + 5/2W = 0 Watts
Power Delivered
Power delivered by an element is equal to the opposite of the power absorbed by that same
element

Current Divider
This leads to a general current divider equation for N parallel
resistors

(KVL) Kirchhoffs Voltage Law
*Sum of voltages around a closed path (loop) in a circuit
is zero.
A closed path move from point to point, only the first
and last points repeat.
Voltage Polarity Conventionwhen using KVL
A voltage encountered from + to - is positive
A voltage encountered from - to + is negative
