Hello folks, This is my first post here, I hope I am posting my question in the correct place/manner? I am a mechanical engineering student taking an electrical class. We are studying op amps. The thing that is confusing me is current flow in the circuits. I understand that there is infinite...

Sorry, I just realized I am not supposed to ask coursework questions in here, I will ask my question in the coursework forum
