Second Order Op Amp circuit: Find Vo for t > 0

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on solving for the output voltage v_o(t) in a second-order op-amp circuit for t > 0, given specific component values. The user applies Kirchhoff's Current Law (KCL) at two nodes to derive equations involving node voltages V_1 and V_2. They substitute the derivative of V_2 into the KCL equation for V_1 to express v_o in terms of the input voltage V_IN and other circuit parameters. The user is seeking guidance on the next steps, specifically whether setting V_2 and its derivative to zero will aid in finding a solution. The conversation emphasizes the application of circuit analysis techniques to determine the output behavior of the op-amp circuit.

Homework Statement



In the circuit below, determine v_o(t) for t > 0. Let V_{IN}\,=\,u(t)\,V, R_!\,=\,R_2\,=\,10\,k\Omega, C_1\,=\,C_2\,=\,100\,\muF.

Homework Equations



i_c\,=\,C\,\frac{dv_c}{dt}



The Attempt at a Solution




Add some node voltages:

KCL @ V_1:

\frac{V_{IN}\,-\,V_1}{R_1}\,=\,C_2\,\frac{dv_2}{dt}\,+\,C_1\,\frac{dv_1}{dt}

KCL @ V_2:

C_2\,\frac{dv_2}{dt}\,=\,\frac{V_2\,-\,V_o}{R_2}

Substituting for \frac{dv_2}{dt} in the KCL @ V_1 equation:

V_o\,=\,-R_2C_2\left(\frac{V_{IN}\,-\,V_1}{R_1C_2}\,-\,\frac{C_1}{C_2}\,\frac{dv_1}{dt}\right)

Now what do I do to solve?

Set V2 and dV2/dt = 0. Does that help?
 
Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'
In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...
