In this Differential Op Amp, what formulas should I use to find R1, R3, and Rp when V1, V2, and Vout are already given?
This image contains a schematic diagram of a differential amplifier circuit using an operational amplifier (op-amp).

### Components and Connections:

- **Inputs:**
  - \( V_1 \) and \( V_2 \) are the input voltages.
  
- **Resistors:**
  - \( R_1 \): Two identical resistors connected to the inputs \( V_1 \) and \( V_2 \).
  - \( R_3 \): Resistor connected from the inverting input of the op-amp to the output.
  - \( R_P \): Potentiometer connected from the non-inverting input of the op-amp to ground.

- **Op-Amp:**
  - The op-amp has two inputs: inverting \((-)\) and non-inverting \((+)\).
  - The output is labeled \( V_{\text{out}} \).

- **Feedback:**
  - The resistor \( R_3 \) forms a feedback loop from the output to the inverting input.

### Functionality:

This configuration is typically used for a differential amplifier where the output voltage \( V_{\text{out}} \) is proportional to the difference between the input voltages \( V_1 \) and \( V_2 \). The resistors \( R_1 \), \( R_3 \), and the potentiometer \( R_P \) can be adjusted to tweak the gain and the offset for more precise measurements.

### Applications:

Differential amplifiers are common in applications requiring amplification of the difference between two signals, often used in the fields of instrumentation and audio engineering.
