### Kirchhoff's Voltage Law and Mesh-Current Analysis

**A) State Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law (KVL).**

Kirchhoff's Voltage Law (KVL) states that the sum of all electrical potential differences (voltages) around any closed network (loop) is zero. Mathematically, it can be represented as:
\[ \sum_{k=1}^{n} V_k = 0 \]
This implies that the total amount of voltage around a closed loop must equal zero, considering both the voltage sources and drops within the loop.

**B) Determine the loop currents (I1 and I2) using the mesh-current analysis technique. Given that Vs=10V, Is=2A, R1=5Ω, R2=2Ω.**

#### Circuit Diagram Description:

The circuit consists of two mesh loops with shared components. 

- **Loop 1** includes:
  - Voltage source \( V_s \)
  - Resistor \( R_1 \)

- **Loop 2** includes:
  - Resistor \( R_2 \)
  - Current source \( I_s \)

The loops are designated as:
- Loop 1: Counterclockwise with current \( I_1 \)
- Loop 2: Counterclockwise with current \( I_2 \)

#### Given Values:
- \( V_s = 10V \)
- \( I_s = 2A \)
- \( R_1 = 5Ω \)
- \( R_2 = 2Ω \)

#### Mesh-Current Analysis:

To find currents \( I_1 \) and \( I_2 \), we apply KVL to each loop.

**For Loop 1:**
\[ V_s - I_1 R_1 - I_s R_1 = 0 \]
\[ 10V - 5Ω(I_1) - 2A \cdot 5Ω = 0 \]
\[ 10V - 5ΩI_1 - 10V = 0 \]
\[ - 5ΩI_1 = 0 \]
\[ I_1 = 0A \]

**For Loop 2:**
Since the second loop includes a current source, the loop current \( I_2 \) is directly influenced by the current source \( I_s \):
\[ I_2 = I_s \]
\[ I_2 = 2A \]
