Homework Statement



Suppose you wanted to weight the inputs by different factors such that for instance Vo = V1 + 2V2 + 3V3. Describe how you would construct a circuit to do this.

Firstly, you ignored the equations section. Please enter the equations you know. Secondly, you didn't put any attempt at a solution. The purpose of PhysicsForums isn't to do your homework for you but rather guide you towards a solution. On top of that, I don't think this question is in the proper forum, since it's an electrical engineering question.

All of that said, do you know how an op-amp works? By that I mean, what does an op-amp do? Do you know what the inverting and non-inverting configurations are? Have you tried looking up what a summing amplifier circuit looks like?
 
Thread 'Need help understanding this figure on energy levels'
This figure is from "Introduction to Quantum Mechanics" by Griffiths (3rd edition). It is available to download. It is from page 142. I am hoping the usual people on this site will give me a hand understanding what is going on in the figure. After the equation (4.50) it says "It is customary to introduce the principal quantum number, ##n##, which simply orders the allowed energies, starting with 1 for the ground state. (see the figure)" I still don't understand the figure :( Here is...
Thread 'Understanding how to "tack on" the time wiggle factor'
The last problem I posted on QM made it into advanced homework help, that is why I am putting it here. I am sorry for any hassle imposed on the moderators by myself. Part (a) is quite easy. We get $$\sigma_1 = 2\lambda, \mathbf{v}_1 = \begin{pmatrix} 0 \\ 0 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix} \sigma_2 = \lambda, \mathbf{v}_2 = \begin{pmatrix} 1/\sqrt{2} \\ 1/\sqrt{2} \\ 0 \end{pmatrix} \sigma_3 = -\lambda, \mathbf{v}_3 = \begin{pmatrix} 1/\sqrt{2} \\ -1/\sqrt{2} \\ 0 \end{pmatrix} $$ There are two ways...
