May 15, 2022 at 14:08 comment added Ján Lalinský That is not the KVL. Some people are very confused about this, including some teachers. The KVL is modern reformulation of the original Kirchhoff's second circuital law (which was originally stated in terms of emfs and RI's) in terms of potential drops. The integral you mention could be one possible expression of the KVL, if $\mathbf E$ was only the conservative part of total electric field. But $\mathbf E$ usually means total electric field, so the conservative part should be denoted differently, e.g. $\mathbf E_C$. The KVL then can be written $\oint \mathbf E_C \cdot d\mathbf s = 0$.
May 15, 2022 at 7:41 comment added Stallmp I see now that you use a specific definition for KVL in order to make it consistent with Faradays law. The formulation that I learned for KVL is $\oint \vec(E} \ cdot d\vec{l} = 0$, which in that case wouldn't apply here. Also, why does my Latex not work for some reason?
