AM circuit design - Exercise

[IronKeeper]

Hi! I'm solving a college exercise list of a Electronics subject and one of the questions is the exercise 8.10 from the book "Communication Circuits Analysis and Design".

The statement is the following:

For the circuit below, calculate v0(t) assuming that f(t) is a square wave with transitions between +1 and -1

Can someone please help? I've attached the circuit design.

Thanks!

If a circuit says 10v and -10v does that mean the power supply is 20v with a center tap?

The quick answer is yes.

That's one option.
Typically voltages on a schematic are referenced to ground, which would require that the ±10V supplies be also referenced to ground.
A 20V supply with a center tap would meet those requirements.

(A common beginner mistake when powering op amps is to use a single supply connected to the both power pins with no power ground connection, which will not work.)
