To make it possible to follow the solution, I have labeled intermediate quantities in the diagram. Recall the two "golden rules" of op amps in the inverting feedback configuration:
1) The voltages at the inputs are equal
2) The currents into the inputs are zero
Proceed to solve for the quantities:
I 1 = C V ˙ V 1 = 0 − R I 1 = − R C V ˙ I 2 = C V ˙ 1 = − R C 2 V ¨ V 2 = 0 − R I 2 = R 2 C 2 V ¨ I 4 = 1 2 R V 2 = 1 2 R C 2 V ¨ I 3 = R V 1 = − C V ˙ V 3 = 0 − R I 3 = R C V ˙ I 5 = 1 . 5 R V 3 = 1 . 5 C V ˙ I 6 = I 4 + I 5 = 1 2 R C 2 V ¨ + 1 . 5 C V ˙
Having determined the intermediate quantities, we can now write a final expression for V .
V = 0 − 6 R I 6 = − 6 R ( 1 2 R C 2 V ¨ + 1 . 5 C V ˙ ) V = − 2 R 2 C 2 V ¨ − 4 R C V ˙
Simplifying a bit more, and substituting in R C = 1 , results in:
V ¨ + 8 V ˙ + 2 V = 0
