Question 1 (2.5 points):

The op amp in the given circuit is ideal.

a) What op amp circuit configuration is this?
b) Find vo in terms of vs.
c) Find the range of values for vs such that vo does
not saturate and the op amp remains in its linear
region of operation.

Question 2 (2.5 points):

In the given circuit, the switch has been closed for a long
time before opening at t = 0.
a) Find the value of L so that vo(t) equals 0.5 vo(0+) when
t = 1 ms.
b) Find the percentage of the stored energy that has been
dissipated in the 10 Ω resistor when t = 1 ms.

Question 3 (2.5 points):

The resistance, inductance, and capacitance in a parallel RLC circuit are 2000 Ω, 250 mH, and 10 nF
respectively.
a) Calculate the roots of the characteristic equation that describe the voltage response of the circuit.
b) Will the response be over-, under-, or critically damped?
c) What value of R will yield a damped frequency of 12 krad/s?
d) What are the roots of the characteristic equation for the value of R found in (c)?
e) What value of R will result in a critically damped response?
