Kirchhoff's first rule obeys law of conservation of charge. Explain.
Text Solution
Verified by Experts
According to Kirchhoff's first rule, the current `(I_(1))` entering a given junction of the circuit in a certain time (t) = current `(I_(2))` leaving the junction during the same time (t). So, `I_(1)t = I_(2) t` or `q_(1) = q_(2)`,i.e., charge entering the junction is eqaul to the charge leaving that junction
