Engineering Opamp Circuit Q: Find Vo in Terms of Vs | Chegg.com

Click For Summary
The discussion focuses on solving a problem involving an ideal operational amplifier (op-amp) circuit, specifically finding the output voltage (Vo) in terms of the input voltage (Vs). The user has derived an equation for Vo as 5Vn, assuming Vn equals Vp due to the ideal op-amp condition. However, they are struggling with calculating Vp, having formulated an equation that they believe may be incorrect. Other participants suggest labeling all components clearly and computing Vp correctly to determine the current through the feedback resistor, which will lead to the output voltage. Clarifying these calculations is essential for arriving at the correct solution.

Homework Equations



I am having difficulties with this problem. It asks to find vo in terms of vs. For the gain, I got an equation of Vn/10 + (Vn-vo)/40 = 0, so vo=5Vn. Since the op amp is ideal, vn=vp. Now for Vp is where i am having trouble. I have an equation of [48/60]vs - [48/60]4V=vp. But i am not sure if this right, I am not getting the correct answer. Help!

1. Label all resistors R1 - R4 and the 5V source V. Don't substitute with numbers until your calculations are done. I can't follow your numbers.
2. Compute vp, then vp=vn as you say, that gives you the current thru the feedback resistor and the output follows immediately.
