    Calculating RoE for AC Equivalent Transistor Amplifiers

    Hey everyone, In my EET program we're going over AC equivalent transistor amplifiers. We've gone over how to do some of them in class but I can't seem to figure out how to find roe. I have the output characteristic of our 2N2222 transistor and made the DC load line but I'm not sure were to go...

    Equivalent Norms: Piecewise Continuous Linear Function [0,1]

    Suppose that ||f||= int 01| f(x) | dx and f is a piecewise continuous linear function on the interval [0,1]. If ||| f ||| = int 01 x | f(x) | dx, determine if the two norms are equivalent. I know the first defines a norm, and the space is not complete. Can anyone offer any hints as to...
