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.,$\Sigma E =\Sigma V =\Sigma IR$

Metallic (nonferromagnetic) and nonmetallic particles in a solid waste may be separated as follows. The waste is allowed to slide down an incline over permanent magnets. The metallic particles slow down as compared to the norunetallic ones and hence are separated. Discuss the role of eddy currents in the process.
