Analysis with Opamps: Find Gain & Solve for Unknowns

AI Thread Summary
To find the gain in an op-amp circuit, the relationship Vo/Vs is essential. The original attempt involved creating multiple equations but resulted in an incorrect value of Vs=0V. It's crucial to verify the circuit connections and ensure the op-amp is treated as ideal, which implies infinite gain. A careful review of the circuit setup may reveal errors in the initial equations. Properly analyzing the circuit will lead to a correct understanding of the gain.

Homework Statement

I need to find the gain.

Homework Equations

The Attempt at a Solution


I know gain will be Vo/Vs. I originally tried to write different equations for each node, but I ended up with 5 eqns and 5 unknowns, and in the end it gave that vs=0V. Can someone give me an idea of what the first step(s) would be? Thanks.

This thread will be deleted shortly, because you have shown insufficient working to demonstrate your reasonable attempt.

However, I'll make the observation that something is amiss. If we assume the OP-AMP to be ideal, with gain approaching infinity, then with its input connected to an ideal voltage source as shown here, we have Vout = ∞.

You need to check that you have correctly copied the circuit and connections at each of the OP-AMP's inputs.
 

Thread 'Rolling without slipping on a curved surface'

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 would like to know the voltmeter readings on the two resistors separately in the picture in the following cases , When one of the keys is closed When both of them are opened (Knowing that the battery has negligible internal resistance) My thoughts for the first case , one of them must be 12 volt while the other is 0 The second case we'll I think both voltmeter readings should be 12 volt since they are both parallel to the battery and they involve the key within what the...

Thread 'Trying to understand the logic behind adding vectors with an angle between them'

My initial calculation was to subtract V1 from V2 to show that from the perspective of the second aircraft the first one is -300km/h. So i checked with ChatGPT and it said I cant just subtract them because I have an angle between them. So I dont understand the reasoning of it. Like why should a velocity be dependent on an angle? I was thinking about how it would look like if the planes where parallel to each other, and then how it look like if one is turning away and I dont see it. Since...
