Kirchhoff's Rules for 850 Expansion Board

The purpose of this lab will be to experimentally demonstrate Kirchhoff’s Junction and Loop Rules for electrical circuits. Kirchhoff’s Junction Rule: The sum of the currents flowing into junction (node) are equal to the sum of the currents flowing out of the junction. Kirchhoff’s Loop Rule: The algebraic sum of the voltages around any closed loop is zero.
