Solve This Op-Amp Question Using KCL At Nodes
I tried to solve this question by applying KCL at the first inverting node and then applied it to the 2nd inverting node. The answer I got is \$V_o\$ = 66V, which is not possible, and for Point B = -...

Why does a voltage divider work even with extreme resistor values?
I’m having trouble understanding voltage dividers. According to the standard formula: $$ V_{out} = V_{in} \cdot \frac{R_2}{R_1 + R_2} $$ If the two resistors, \$R_{1} = R_{2}\$, are equal in value ...
