Finding V(out) of Operational Amplifier

AI Thread Summary
To find the output voltage (V(out)) of the operational amplifier powered by ±20V DC, the discussion emphasizes using the given resistances and battery values. The known voltages V1 and V3 can be easily identified, leaving V0, V2, and the output currents i1 and i2 as unknowns. Participants suggest writing equations that sum the currents to zero at each node (V0 through V3), resulting in four equations for the four unknowns. Utilizing math software to solve these equations is recommended for efficiency. The approach focuses on systematic analysis to determine the output voltage accurately.

Hint #1: V1 and V3 are obvious by inspection.

That leaves V0, V2, i1 and i2 as unknowns where i1 and i2 are the op amp output currents.

Write equations summing currents to zero at V0 thru V3. That's 4 equations and 4 unknowns. Stick the equations into your math software.
 
Kindly see the attached pdf. My attempt to solve it, is in it. I'm wondering if my solution is right. My idea is this: At any point of time, the ball may be assumed to be at an incline which is at an angle of θ(kindly see both the pics in the pdf file). The value of θ will continuously change and so will the value of friction. I'm not able to figure out, why my solution is wrong, if it is wrong .
TL;DR Summary: I came across this question from a Sri Lankan A-level textbook. Question - An ice cube with a length of 10 cm is immersed in water at 0 °C. An observer observes the ice cube from the water, and it seems to be 7.75 cm long. If the refractive index of water is 4/3, find the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. I could not understand how the apparent height of the ice cube in the water depends on the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. Does anyone have an...
