So this is not really homework, but I'm trying to understand how to work with transistors and I do not quite understand some things I am seeing in the circuit I made in LTSpice. Please refer to attached screen shot:
Question #1:
In the top part of the graph, you'll see that V(nb) is very close to 1V.
Since my supply is 10V and I only have a resistor (R3), and the Q2 base-emitter junction in series with the source I would have expected V(nb) to be a lot closer to 10V than 1V. Can anyone explain the value of V(nb)?
Question #2:
Considering I have a voltage divider feeding 'na' I would expect V(na) to be significantly less than V(nb) as, in theory, the 10V supply should be cut down to 5V. But V(na) is somehow HIGHER than V(nB)..... Help???
