Textbook Question
Chapter 1, Problem 1.34P
Suppose that in the fluid-flow analogy for an electrical circuit the analog of electrical current is volumetric flow rate with units of cm3/s. For a proper analogy to electrical circuits, must the fluid be compressible or incompressible? Must the walls of the pipes be elastic or inelastic? Explain your answers.

2. Suppose the Laplace transform of a causal signal x(t) is given by
s² +2
X(s) =
S³ + 1
Using the lookup tables for standard Laplace transforms and the Laplace transform
properties, find the Laplace transforms of the following signals. You do not need to
simplify the expressions.
a) x₁(t) = e² x(t) + 38(t − 1) − (t − 2)² u(t − 2)
b) x2(t) = x(2t - 1) + et u(t − 2)
Please explain in detail the steps to solve this. Thank you

- This is the 3rd time i'm asking this. SOLVE THIS AND FIND V0 , the last answer i was given is -2V which is not even one of the listed options. the listed options are: 12V,4V,24V,6V. first answer given to me was 4V but after i simulated on ltspice albeit i'm not sure if i simulated correct i got a different answer and when i solved it myself i got a different answer. this is my last remaining question. PLEASE SOLVE CORRECTLY AND PROPERLY. NODAL ANALYSIS IS BEST TO USE HERE. IT IS AN IDEAL OP-AMP.
