3-6. When the values of the parameters are properly selected, the network shown below is
called a Butterworth low-pass filter. Formulate a set of differential equations on the basis (loop
or node) that results in the smaller number of simultaneous differential equations.
3-8. The network shown in the figure represents the interstage network of some vacuum tube
amplifiers. Repeat Prob. 3-6 for this network.
3-9. The network shown in the figure represents the equivalent network of a two-stage vacuum
tube amplifier. Repeat Prob. 3-6 for this network.

3-30. In the network graph shown in the figure, each branch contains a 1-ohm resistor. Four
branches, as shown, contain a 1-volt voltage source. Analyze this network on the loop basis to
obtain a set of equations. Simplify by combining like terms in any one equation. The number
inside each square is the loop number.
3-31. In the network graph shown in the figure, each interior branch contains an inductor of 1
henry and each exterior branch an inductor of 2 henrys. A 1-volt source is located in one branch
as shown. The number inside each square is the loop number. Analyze the network on the loop
basis to obtain a set of equations. Simplify by combining like terms in any one equation.
3-32. In the network graph shown, 𝑅 = 𝑅₁ = 1 ohm, and one branch contains a current source
of 1 amp. Analyze the network on the node basis to obtain a set of equations. Simplify by
combining like terms in any one equation.
3-33. Repeat Prob. 3-32 with external branch resistors of 𝑅 = 2 ohms and interior branch
resistors of 𝑅₁ = 1 ohm.
