While performing an experiment to determine the gain for an ideal operational amplifier having finite gain, a student mistakenly used the equation 1 + R2/R1 where R2 is the feedback resistance. What is the percentage error in his result? Given A is the finite voltage gain of the ideal amplifier used.

While performing an experiment to determine the gain for an ideal operational amplifier having finite gain, a student mistakenly used the equation 1 + R2/R1 where R2 is the feedback resistance. What is the percentage error in his result? Given A is the finite voltage gain of the ideal amplifier used. Correct Answer (1+R2/R1)/(A+1+R2/R1) X 100%

The correct formula is (1+R2/R1)/(1+((1+R2/R1)/A)).
