Chapter 3, Problem 3.6QAP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The values for $R_1$ and $R_2$ is to be calculated for the circuit shown below.

Concept introduction:

From the given circuit, the relation between the input and output voltage is obtained using virtual short and potential divider concept. The output is observed to follow the input with a gain with the relation,

$v_0=v_i\left(\frac{R_1+R_2}{R_1}\right)$

Based on the input-output relation given $v_0=8.5v_i$ and $R_1+R_2=50.0\text{ k}\Omega$, we can find the values for resistances.
