Negative feedback may be used in amplifier circuits. State
what is meant by negative feedback,
two effects of negative feedback on an amplifier incorporating an operational amplifier (op-amp).
The figure below is a circuit for an amplifier that is used with a microphone.
The output potential difference is
when the potential at point P is
. Determine
the gain of the amplifier,
the resistance of the resistor R.
The maximum potential produced by the microphone at point P on the figure above is . The power supply for the operational amplifier may be either
or
. State which power supply should be used. Justify your answer quantitatively.
