Practice Questions

Question 1

What does Kirchhoff’s Junction Rule state about electric current at a junction in a circuit?

Question 2

Which physical principle is the basis of Kirchhoff’s Junction Rule?

Question 3

At a junction, $I_1 = 3\,\text{A}$ and $I_2 = 2\,\text{A}$ flow into the junction. What current must flow out if only one branch carries the outgoing current?

Question 4

Which equation correctly represents Kirchhoff’s Junction Rule for a junction where currents $I_1$ and $I_2$ enter and $I_3$ and $I_4$ leave?

Question 5

In a junction, if the current entering is $4\,\text{A}$ and one outgoing branch carries $1\,\text{A}$, what is the current in the other outgoing branch?
