why the input resistance of an op-amp is high whereas it's
output resistance is low?
Answer Posted / dlhylton
An op amp has high input impedance to prevent loading. When
the impedance is very high, the current that the op amp
draws is very low.
Op amps also have high input impedance because it's a
voltage gain device. In order for the op amp to amplify the
voltage, the voltage signal must drop fully across. And for
this to happen, the op amp must have high input impedance,
v=ir. The greater the impedance, the greater the voltage
drop.

The server is already having the list of IP addresses of all its authorized clients & if any client is requesting the server to do a task, it is sending its IP address(encapsulated in the packet) to the server.The server can easily match that IP address with that on its list and check if it's authorized client or not, then why we need inverse domain...........
