    The Physical Significance of the Second Term in Kirchhoff's Current Law

    Hi Everyone, I'm told that the following formula represents Kirchhoff's current law g_1 E_{1 n}+\varepsilon_1 \frac{\partial E_{1 n}}{\partial t}=g_2 E_{2 n}+\varepsilon_2 \frac{\partial E_{2 n}}{\partial t} where the first term on each side is Ohm's law and the conductive current and...

    What is the correct way to apply Kirchhoff's rules to this circuit?

    http://img17.imageshack.us/img17/201/73448266.jpg let's suppose that we know all resistors and voltages by applying kirchhof rules we have V1 - i*R1 - i*R2 -i2*R3 = 0 V1 - i*R1 - i*R2 - i1*R4 - V2 = 0 -V2 + i2*R3 - i1*R4 = 0 we know V1,V2,V3 R1,R2,R3 and we can find the currents...
