Consider the following two statements.
(A) Kirchoff's junction law follows from the conservation of charge.
(B) Kirchhoff's loop law follows from the conservation of energy.
Which of the following is correct?
(A) Kirchoff's junction law follows from the conservation of charge.
(B) Kirchhoff's loop law follows from the conservation of energy.
Which of the following is correct?
- ABoth (A) and (B) are wrong
- B(A) is correct and (B) is wrong
- C(A) is wrong and (B) is correct
- DBoth (A) and (B) are correct

Correct answer: D
Kirchhoff’s junction law or Kirchhoff’s first law is based on the conservation of charge.
Kirchhoff’s loop law or Kirchhoff’s second law is based on the conservation of energy.
Hence both statements (A) and (B) are correct.
