Art of Electronics 3rd ed. Exercise 2.9, 2.10
(The current source in this exercise is a voltage source plus resistor)
1. When Vout=0
I1=Vin/R
2, When Vout=10V
I2=(Vin-Vout)/R
I1/I2=100
100Vin/R=(Vin-Vout)/R
100Vin=Vin-Vout
99Vin=Vout
99*10=Vout = 990V
Exercise 2.10
Let I=10mA, how much power is dissipated in the series resistor? How much gets into the load?
I1=10mA, R=99K
Pr=I*U=0.01*990=9.9W on the resistor
Pload=I*10V=0.01*10V=0.1W on the load
