What exactly is a voltage divider? It seems like just a potential at a point.
How does the Loop Rule in Kirchoff's Laws come from energy conservation? Energy is added through the battery.
How exactly can you go from conservation of energy to KVL, a law of voltages?
Does Kirchoff's first law also describe the conservation of thermal energy? i.e. is the given heat off by the resistor equal to the power generated by the battery?
Is an entire circuit an interior loop?
Does the definition of ``interior loop'' matter for calculating?
Is there ever a case where the branch method works and the loop doesn't, or vice versa? Or is it just a matter of preference for using them?
