Kirchhoff's laws describe how current and voltage behave in electrical circuits. The two laws are:
1. Kirchhoff's Current Law (KCL) states that the total current entering a node in a circuit equals the total current leaving it, expressing the conservation of electric charge.
2. Kirchhoff's Voltage Law (KVL) states that the sum of the voltages in any closed loop in a circuit is equal to zero, expressing the conservation of energy.
The laws were first described by German physicist Gustav Kirchhoff in 1845 and are foundational to circuit theory. They allow analysis of currents and voltages in circuits.

ESR spectroscopy in liquid food and beverages.pptxPRIYANKA PATEL
With increasing population, people need to rely on packaged food stuffs. Packaging of food materials requires the preservation of food. There are various methods for the treatment of food to preserve them and irradiation treatment of food is one of them. It is the most common and the most harmless method for the food preservation as it does not alter the necessary micronutrients of food materials. Although irradiated food doesn’t cause any harm to the human health but still the quality assessment of food is required to provide consumers with necessary information about the food. ESR spectroscopy is the most sophisticated way to investigate the quality of the food and the free radicals induced during the processing of the food. ESR spin trapping technique is useful for the detection of highly unstable radicals in the food. The antioxidant capability of liquid food and beverages in mainly performed by spin trapping technique.

Describing and Interpreting an Immersive Learning Case with the Immersion Cub...Leonel Morgado
Current descriptions of immersive learning cases are often difficult or impossible to compare. This is due to a myriad of different options on what details to include, which aspects are relevant, and on the descriptive approaches employed. Also, these aspects often combine very specific details with more general guidelines or indicate intents and rationales without clarifying their implementation. In this paper we provide a method to describe immersive learning cases that is structured to enable comparisons, yet flexible enough to allow researchers and practitioners to decide which aspects to include. This method leverages a taxonomy that classifies educational aspects at three levels (uses, practices, and strategies) and then utilizes two frameworks, the Immersive Learning Brain and the Immersion Cube, to enable a structured description and interpretation of immersive learning cases. The method is then demonstrated on a published immersive learning case on training for wind turbine maintenance using virtual reality. Applying the method results in a structured artifact, the Immersive Learning Case Sheet, that tags the case with its proximal uses, practices, and strategies, and refines the free text case description to ensure that matching details are included. This contribution is thus a case description method in support of future comparative research of immersive learning cases. We then discuss how the resulting description and interpretation can be leveraged to change immersion learning cases, by enriching them (considering low-effort changes or additions) or innovating (exploring more challenging avenues of transformation). The method holds significant promise to support better-grounded research in immersive learning.
The binding of cosmological structures by massless topological defectsSérgio Sacani
Assuming spherical symmetry and weak field, it is shown that if one solves the Poisson equation or the Einstein field
equations sourced by a topological defect, i.e. a singularity of a very specific form, the result is a localized gravitational
field capable of driving flat rotation (i.e. Keplerian circular orbits at a constant speed for all radii) of test masses on a thin
spherical shell without any underlying mass. Moreover, a large-scale structure which exploits this solution by assembling
concentrically a number of such topological defects can establish a flat stellar or galactic rotation curve, and can also deflect
light in the same manner as an equipotential (isothermal) sphere. Thus, the need for dark matter or modified gravity theory is
mitigated, at least in part.
The technology uses reclaimed CO₂ as the dyeing medium in a closed loop process. When pressurized, CO₂ becomes supercritical (SC-CO₂). In this state CO₂ has a very high solvent power, allowing the dye to dissolve easily.

The debris of the ‘last major merger’ is dynamically youngSérgio Sacani
The Milky Way’s (MW) inner stellar halo contains an [Fe/H]-rich component with highly eccentric orbits, often referred to as the
‘last major merger.’ Hypotheses for the origin of this component include Gaia-Sausage/Enceladus (GSE), where the progenitor
collided with the MW proto-disc 8–11 Gyr ago, and the Virgo Radial Merger (VRM), where the progenitor collided with the
MW disc within the last 3 Gyr. These two scenarios make different predictions about observable structure in local phase space,
because the morphology of debris depends on how long it has had to phase mix. The recently identified phase-space folds in Gaia
DR3 have positive caustic velocities, making them fundamentally different than the phase-mixed chevrons found in simulations
at late times. Roughly 20 per cent of the stars in the prograde local stellar halo are associated with the observed caustics. Based
on a simple phase-mixing model, the observed number of caustics are consistent with a merger that occurred 1–2 Gyr ago.
We also compare the observed phase-space distribution to FIRE-2 Latte simulations of GSE-like mergers, using a quantitative
measurement of phase mixing (2D causticality). The observed local phase-space distribution best matches the simulated data
1–2 Gyr after collision, and certainly not later than 3 Gyr. This is further evidence that the progenitor of the ‘last major merger’
did not collide with the MW proto-disc at early times, as is thought for the GSE, but instead collided with the MW disc within
the last few Gyr, consistent with the body of work surrounding the VRM.

3. 9.1 Introduction:
The study of electrical charges in motion is called current electricity. The motion of
electric charges in a conductor produces electric current. The electric current is defined as
the rate flow of charge. If ‘q’ charge flows in time ‘t’ through a conductor, then current ‘I’ is
given by I = q / t. When potential difference is applied across the conductor, the electric
current flows through a conductor. The relation between current ( I ) and potential
difference ( V ) is given by ohm’s law which is given by V = R I . Where R is resistance of
conductor.
In XI th science we study how to apply ohm’s law to simple circuit containing resistance
only or how to determine the effective resistance in series and parallel combination of
resistances.
Shri Swami Vivekanand Shikshan Sanstha, Kolhapur 3
4. However this ohm’s law cannot be applied to complicated electrical circuits containing
large number of electrical components as shown in figure. The more complicated circuit
can be analysed by using Kirchhoff’s laws. The scientist Kirchhoff formulated two laws for
analysing complicated circuit . In this chapter we will discuss these laws and their
applications.
Shri Swami Vivekanand Shikshan Sanstha, Kolhapur 4
5. 9.2 Kirchhoff’s laws for electrical network :
Before to study these laws we will define some terms used for electrical circuits
1. Junction : Any point in an electrical circuit where two or more conductors joined
together is a junction
2. Loop : Any closed conducting path in an electrical network is called loop or mesh
3. Branch : A branch in any part of network that lies between two junctions.
In Fig 9.1 there are two junctions
labelled as ‘a’ and ‘b’. There are three
branches- These are three paths 1, 2, 3
from a to b
Fig 9.1
Shri Swami Vivekanand Shikshan Sanstha, Kolhapur 5
6. 9.2.1 Kirchhoff’s First Law (Current Law OR Junction Law ) :
Statement: ”The algebraic sum of currents at a junction is zero in an electrical
network”.
where ‘𝐼𝑖’ is the current in the i th conductor at a junction
having ‘n ‘ conductors
Explanation :
Sign convention :
1) Currents arriving at junction are considered as positive.
2) Currents leaving the junction are considered as negative.
σ𝑖 0
𝑛
(𝐼𝑖) = 0
Shri Swami Vivekanand Shikshan Sanstha, Kolhapur 6
7. Appling sign convention we can write,
I1- I2 + I3 + I4 – I5 – I6 = 0
Arriving currents I1, I3, I4 are taken as positive and
leaving currents I2, I5, and I6 are taken as negative.
Therefore, I1+ I3 + I4 = I2 + I5 + I6
Thus the total currents flowing towards the junction is equal to the total
current flowing away from the junction. This is Kirchhoff’s first law.
Consider a junction point P in circuit where six conductors meet as shown in fig. 9.2 .
Shri Swami Vivekanand Shikshan Sanstha, Kolhapur 7
8. 9.2.2 Kirchhoff’s Second Law ( Voltage Law ) :
Statement : “ The algebraic the sum of potential differences ( product of current and
resistance) and the electromotive forces (emf’s) in a closed loop is zero.“
i.e. σ(𝐼 𝑅) + σ (𝐸) = 0
Explanation:
Sign convention :
1. While tracing a loop through a resistor ,if we are travelling along the
direction of conventional current ,the potential across that resistor is
considered negative . If loop is traced against the direction of
conventional current, the that resistor is considered positive.
2. The emf of electrical source is positive while tracing the loop within
the source from negative terminal of source to its positive terminal. It
is taken as negative while tracing within the source from positive
terminal to negative terminal.
Shri Swami Vivekanand Shikshan Sanstha, Kolhapur 8
9. Consider the loop ABFGH in clockwise
direction. Appling Sign convention to this
loop we get,
-I1R1 - I3R5 - I1R3 + E1 = 0
E1 = I1R1 + I3R5 + I1R3
Now consider the loop BFDCB in
anticlockwise direction, applying Sign
convention we get,
- I2R2 – I3R5 – I2R4 + E2 = 0
E2 = I2R2 + I3R5 + I2R4
Consider an electrical network as shown in fig. 9.3
E1
E2
Shri Swami Vivekanand Shikshan Sanstha, Kolhapur 9
10. Steps usually followed while solving a problem using Kirchhoff’s laws :
1. Choose some direction of the currents.
2. Reduce the number of variables using Kirchhoff’s first law.
3. Determine number of independent loops
4. Apply voltage law to all the independent loops
5. Solve the equations obtained simultaneously
6. In case the answer of current is negative, the conventional current is flowing in the
direction opposite to that chosen by us.
Shri Swami Vivekanand Shikshan Sanstha, Kolhapur 10
14. 9.3 Wheatstone Bridge
The Wheatstone bridge was originally developed by Charles Wheatstone
(1802-1875),
To measure the values of unknown resistance, range from tens of ohms to
hundreds of ohms.
It calibrates measuring instruments , voltmeter, ammeters , etc.
Shri Swami Vivekanand Shikshan Sanstha, Kolhapur 14
15. P, Q, R & S – Resistance
G – Galvanometer
E – emf (Battery)
k– key
Circuit Diagram:
Fig. 9.4
Shri Swami Vivekanand Shikshan Sanstha, Kolhapur 15
16. From Kirchhoff”s current law - I=I1+I2 …………(1)
Apply Kirchhoff's voltage law for loop ABDA,
- I1P – IgG +I2 S = 0 ( ؞ I g = 0)
- I1 P + I2 S = 0
؞ I1 P = I2 S………………(2)
Apply Kirchhoff”s voltage law for loop BCDB,
- (I1-Ig) Q + (I2+Ig) R+ Ig G = 0 ( ؞ I g = 0)
- I1 Q + I2 R = 0
؞ I1 Q = I2 R…………………(3)
At Balance condition
VB = VD, I g = 0
Shri Swami Vivekanand Shikshan Sanstha, Kolhapur 16
17. This is the condition for balancing the Wheatstone Bridge.
If any three resistances in the bridge are known, the fourth resistance can be
determined by using eq.(4).
Uses of Wheatstone Bridge:
1. To measure the value of very low resistance precisely.
2. To measure the quantities such as galvanometer resistance, capacitance,
inductance and impedance.
Dividing Eq. 2 by Eq. 3 , we get
P/Q = S/R……….4
Shri Swami Vivekanand Shikshan Sanstha, Kolhapur 17
18. Applications of Wheatstone Bridge:-
9.3.1 Meter Bridge
Meter bridge is the modification of Whetstone's bridge used to
determine unknown resistance.
It is an instrument which works on the principle of Whetstone's
bridge.
So it is also called as Whetstone's Meter bridge.
The length of wire used is One meter , so it is called Meter bridge
Shri Swami Vivekanand Shikshan Sanstha, Kolhapur 18
19. Circuit Diagram:
AB - Metal wire(1m)
X- Unknown Resistance
G- Galvanometer
E- Battery
J – Jockey
Rh- Rheostat
D- Null point
lx- Length of wire bet. A&D
lR- Length of wire bet. D&B
Jockey:- The jockey is a metallic rod whose one end has a knife edge which can
slide over the wire AB to make electrical connection(contact)
Fig.9.5
Shri Swami Vivekanand Shikshan Sanstha, Kolhapur 19
20. Using the conditions for the balance , we get
Where, RAD &RDB are resistance of the parts AD & DB of the
wire resistance of the wire AB.
If l - Length of the wire,
A- Area of cross section of wire,
ρ – Specific resistance of wire,
Then
Shri Swami Vivekanand Shikshan Sanstha, Kolhapur 20
21. Therefore,
Knowing, R, lx & lR, the value of the unknown resistance X can
be determined.
Source of errors:
1. The cross section of the wire may not be uniform.
2. The ends of the wire are soldered to the metallic strip where contact
resistance is developed , which is not taken into account.
3. The measurement of lx & lR may not be accurate.
4. These contact resistance affect the null deflection point & introduce an
error in ‘X’
Shri Swami Vivekanand Shikshan Sanstha, Kolhapur 21
22. To minimize the errors:
1. The value of R is so adjusted that the null point is obtained to middle one
third of the wire (between 34 cm & 66 cm) so that percentage error in the
measurement of lx & lR are minimum and nearly the same.
2. The experiment is repeated by interchanging the positions of unknown
resistance X & known resistance box R.
3. The jockey should be tapped on the wire & not slided. We use jockey to
detect whether there is a current through the central branch .this is possible
only by tapping the jockey.
Shri Swami Vivekanand Shikshan Sanstha, Kolhapur 22

24. Let RAD & RDC be the resistance of the two parts of the wire AD & DC
respectively.
Since bridge is balanced
Using this formula, the unknown resistance of the galvanometer can be calculated.
Shri Swami Vivekanand Shikshan Sanstha, Kolhapur 24
25. 3.Post Office Box (PO Box) :

shown in the figure.
P, Q & R – Known Resistances,
X – Unknown Resistance,
G – Galvanometer,
E – Battery,
K1 & K2 – Tap Keys.
Shri Swami Vivekanand Shikshan Sanstha, Kolhapur 25
26. P & Q contains resistances 10 Ω, 100 Ω & 1000 Ω each,
R contains resistances from 1 Ω to 5000 Ω,
X forms the fourth resistance.
P & Q are fixed to desired ratio ,
R is adjusted so that the galvanometer shows no deflection
So bridge is balanced,
The unknown resistance
X = R Q/P
If L- Length of the wire ,
r – Radius of the wire then
The specific resistance of the material of the wire is given by

28. 9.4 Potentiometer:-
device used for accurate measurement of potential difference
used to measure the e.m.f. of a cell
used for comparison of e.m.f. of two cells
used to measure the internal resistance of a cell
9.4.1 Construction and Principle
Potentiometer consists of a long and uniform wire AB stretched on rectangular wooden
board into number of segments 100cm each
L is length, R is resistance , A is cross sectional area of wire
A cell of emf ɛ having internal resistance r is connected across AB as shown in fig.
Fig.9.6
Shri Swami Vivekanand Shikshan Sanstha, Kolhapur 28
29. Potential difference per unit length of the wire is
For a point C on wire, the potential
difference between A and C is
Potential gradient can be defined as
potential difference per unit length of wire
Principle of potentiometer:
Potential difference between two points on
the wire is directly proportional to length of
wire between them. ( provided, wire-
uniform, current- same, temp.-constant )

Thus, emf of two cells can be compared
Shri Swami Vivekanand Shikshan Sanstha, Kolhapur 30
31. 2) By sum and difference method
By using this formula, emf of two cells can
be compared
Shri Swami Vivekanand Shikshan Sanstha, Kolhapur 31
32. The key k1 is closed and k2 is open then,

resistance of cell

33. C) Application of Potentiometer
1) Voltage Divider:
2)Audio Control
3) Potentiometer as a sensor
9.4.3 Advantages of Potentiometer Over Voltmeter:
1) Potentiometer used to measure potential difference as well as emf of cell.
A voltmeter measures terminal potential difference and can not used to measure emf of cell.
2) Potentiometer measures P.D. or emf very accurately. A very small P. D. can be measured.
3) Internal resistance of a cell can be measured .
Disadvantages or Demerits of Potentiometer:
1) Potentiometer is not portable.
2) Direct measurement of potential difference or emf is not possible.
Shri Swami Vivekanand Shikshan Sanstha, Kolhapur 33
34. 9.5 Galvanometer
• Device used to detect very small electric current.
A moving coil galvanometer can be
used as Ammeter and Voltmeter
9.5.1 Galvanometer as an Ammeter:
Ammeter is current measuring instrument.
The necessary modifications are:
1)Its effective current capacity must be increased to desired high value
2) Its effective resistance must be decreased
3) It must be protected from damages due to excess electric current
This is achieved by connecting low resistance in parallel with galvanometer. This resistance
is shunt. Shri Swami Vivekanand Shikshan Sanstha, Kolhapur 34
35. A shunted permanent magnet moving coil galvanometer is called as an ammeter
Uses of shunt:
1)Reduces effective resistance of an ammeter
2) Increases the range of instrument
3)Provides an alternative path for excess current , which protects the galvanometer from
the damage
Expression for shunt resistance:
Since S and G are parallel
Ig –current through galvanometer G
Is – current through shunt S
Total current
This equation gives the value of shunt resistance
Shri Swami Vivekanand Shikshan Sanstha, Kolhapur 35
36. i) If I = n Ig then
ii) If Is is current through shunt resistance, ( I – Is ) will flow through galvanometer.
Hence,
OR
This is the required shunt to increase the
range n times
This equation gives the fraction of the total current
through the shunt resistance.
By solving above equations, we get the equations for current through galvanometer ( Ig)
and current through shunt resistance (Is) given as below,
Shri Swami Vivekanand Shikshan Sanstha, Kolhapur 36
37. 9.5.2 Galvanometer as an Voltmeter
A voltmeter is an instrument used to measure potential difference between two points in
an electrical circuit.
The necessary modifications are:
1)Its voltage measuring capacity must be increased to desired higher value
2) Its effective resistance must be increased
3) It must be protected from damages due to excess applied potential difference
This is achieved by connecting high resistance (X) in series with galvanometer.
Expression for resistance X :
.
Ig – current through galvanometer
X- resistance connected in series with galvanometer
V- voltage to be measured
This equation gives the value of resistance X
If
is the factor by which the voltage
range is increased then,
