Question
Write Kirchhoff's rules for electric circuit.

Answer

First law (junction rule) : Algebraic sum of all the currents meeting at a junction in any closed circuit is zero. which means $\Sigma I =0$
Second law (loop rule): According to this law, the algebraic sum of the products of currents and resistances of any closed loop of any electric circuit is equal to the algebraic sum of electromotive forces working in that loop.
i.e.,$\Sigma E =\Sigma V =\Sigma IR$

It is proposed to move a particle in simple harmonic motion on a rough horizontal surface by applying an external force along the line of motion. Sketch the graph of the applied force against the position of the particle. Note that the applied force has two values for a given position depending on whether the particle is moving in positive or negative direction.
