Higher HW solutions – Q2 (due 06.03.09) March 9, 2009

The two assumptions we make about an ideal op amp are 

(i) the input current is zero (i.e. it has infinite input resistance)

and 

(ii) there is no potential difference between the inverting and non-inverting inputs (i.e. both pins are at the same potential)
