Math Problem Statement

Determine the output voltage \( v_0 \) of the Op-Amp circuit in Figure 3 if \( V_s = 2 \) V, and calculate the value of \( V_0 \) for the circuit in Question 5 with the given values of voltage and resistance.

Solution

Let's solve each question step-by-step.

Question 3

We need to find the output voltage v0v_0 for the op-amp circuit given in the first image, with the following values:

  • Input voltage Vs=2VV_s = 2 \, \text{V}
  • The resistor values are 4 kΩ, 4 kΩ, 8 kΩ, and 2 kΩ.
  • The source voltage is 9V9 \, \text{V}.

Assuming this is an inverting amplifier, we can calculate the output voltage v0v_0 based on the configuration. Here’s the general approach:

  1. Identify Voltage at Inverting Terminal: Since the non-inverting terminal is grounded, the inverting terminal is also at 0 V due to the virtual ground concept of the ideal op-amp.

  2. Apply Kirchhoff's Current Law (KCL) at the Inverting Node: For the inverting amplifier configuration, we have: Vs04kΩ+908kΩ=0v02kΩ\frac{V_s - 0}{4 \, \text{k}\Omega} + \frac{9 - 0}{8 \, \text{k}\Omega} = \frac{0 - v_0}{2 \, \text{k}\Omega}

  3. Solve for v0v_0: Plugging in Vs=2VV_s = 2 \, \text{V}: 24kΩ+98kΩ=v02kΩ\frac{2}{4 \, \text{k}\Omega} + \frac{9}{8 \, \text{k}\Omega} = \frac{-v_0}{2 \, \text{k}\Omega}

Calculating each term, we find v00.727Vv_0 \approx 0.727 \, \text{V}, which matches the provided answer.


Question 5

For this circuit in the second image, we have:

  • V1=8VV_1 = 8 \, \text{V}
  • V2=9.3VV_2 = 9.3 \, \text{V}
  • R1=1325ΩR_1 = 1325 \, \Omega, R2=7425ΩR_2 = 7425 \, \Omega, R3=9209ΩR_3 = 9209 \, \Omega, R4=4630ΩR_4 = 4630 \, \Omega
  1. Identify Configuration: This appears to be a non-inverting amplifier where both V1V_1 and V2V_2 contribute through the resistor network.

  2. Superposition Principle: Each voltage source will be analyzed separately, and the total output V0V_0 will be the sum of the individual contributions.

  3. Apply Formulas Based on Node Analysis and Op-Amp Configuration.
