Problem

Each set below lists potential differences (in volts) encountered by a charge during one clockwise traversal of a single closed loop. I. (+5, −2, −3)(+5,\,-2,\,-3) II. (+10, −4, −4, −4)(+10,\,-4,\,-4,\,-4) III. (+9, −4, −2)(+9,\,-4,\,-2) IV. (+6, −3, −3, −1)(+6,\,-3,\,-3,\,-1) Identify which set(s) are consistent with energy conservation for the loop and briefly justify your selection.
