**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Kirchhoff's Laws:** - Kirchhoff's laws consist of two main rules: the Junction Law (or Current Law) and the Loop Law (or Voltage Law). - The Junction Law states that the total current entering a junction must equal the total current leaving the junction, which is based on the principle of conservation of charge. - The Loop Law states that the sum of the potential differences (voltage) around any closed loop in a circuit must equal zero, which is based on the principle of conservation of energy. 2. **Application to Direct Current (DC):** ...
