The figure above shows a MOSFET with its gate terminal, G, connected to its drain terminal, D. Assume that the MOSFET is operated in its saturation region and it is characterized by the equation:

i_D = \begin{cases} \dfrac{K}{2}(V_{GS}-V_{T})^2 & \text{for } V_T \lt V_{GS} \leq V_{DS}\\ 0 & \text{for } V_{GS} \lt V_T\end{cases}

where i_{DS} is the drain-to-source current when a voltage v_{GS} is applied across its gate-to-source terminals. Assume V_T = 0 for all parts of this problem, including part 1.

For all analytical solutions, use vIN for v_{IN}, vOUT for v_{OUT}, K for K, vDS for v_{DS} and iD for i_{D}.
