Question

KCL (Kirchhoff's Current Law) is applied at __________.
Options
A Loop
B Node
Correct Answer
C Both loop and node
D Neither loop nor node
Correct Answer

Option B is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

Kirchhoff's Current Law (KCL) states that the algebraic sum of currents entering a node (or junction) is zero, or equivalently, the total current entering a node is equal to the total current leaving the node. KCL is fundamentally applied at nodes in a circuit.

Hint

KCL deals with the conservation of charge at a specific point in a circuit.
