Round 8: Tossup 9

This operation is done for a fixed period, then its inverse is done for a variable period in a dual-slope analog-to-digital converter. This operation names a neuronal model proposed by Louis Lapicque (“la-PEEK”) that makes no assumption about the shape of action potentials. This operation is the second term in the computation done by three-term control systems. Ideal op-amps that implement (-5[1])this operation have a transfer function (10[1])of the negative reciprocal of RC times s, since this operation (10[1])in the time domain is Laplace transformed into division in the s-domain. A (10[1])capacitor (10[1])performs this mathematical operation to the current, (-5[1])since the charge is equal to this operation with respect to time on the current. For 10 points, name this operation from calculus that gives the area under a curve. ■END■ (10[5])
