LAWS, THEOREMS, RULES Kirchoffs Voltage Law It states that the algebraic sum of the voltage sources and voltage drops in any closed path is equal to zero. Kirchoffs Current Law It states that the sum of the currents entering a node is equal to the sum of currents leaving the same node. Superposition Theorem In a linear, bilateral network having more than one source, the current and voltage in any part of the network can be found by adding algebraically the effect of each source separately. All other sources are killed temporarily; with independent voltage sources shorted and independent current sources opened. Page 9 of 10

Thevenins Theorem Any network with two open terminals can be replaced by a single voltage source in series with a single resistance. Nortons Theorem Any two-terminal network can be replaced by a single current source in parallel with a single resistance. Millmans Theorem It is a theorem that provides a shortcut for finding the common voltage across any number of parallel branches with different voltage sources. This common voltage equals the sum of currents in parallel branches divided by the sum of conductances in parallel branches. V = QI/QG Coulombs Law The force between charges is proportional to the amount of charges, and is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between charges. Faradays Law The amount of induced voltage is directly dependent on the number of turns of a coil and on the rate a flux cuts the conductor. Lenz Law States that the direction of the induced current produces magnetic field that opposes the action that produced the induced current. Amperes Law This is the basic principle of electric motors. It states that any current-carrying conductor located in a magnetic field, at right angles to the lines of force, will be pushed by a force that is directly proportional to the flux density, current, and length of conductor. Left Hand Rule It is used to determine the magnetic polarity. It states that if a coil is grasped with the fingers of the left hand, curled around the coil in the direction of electron flow, the thumb points to the north pole of the coil. Right Hand Motor Rule This is used to determine the rotation of a motor. If the index finger points to the direction of flux, and the middle finger to the direction of electron flow in conductor, then the thumb will point to the direction of the force. Page 10 of 10
