superimpose v                нуль
zero n                       накладывать, перекрывать
bias n                       устойчивый, постоянный
quiescent a                   чертёж
steady a                      взаимный

instantaneous a               смещение

        2.5.4 Find and translate the sentence beginning with the words “This point
...” in paragraph 3, define the function of the infinitive to find in paragraph 1.

                                  THE LOAD LINE

1. A conventient graphical construction may be employed to find the output
components for any operating condition. This construction is show in Figure 8, which
consists of the plate characteristics of the tube in question and a superimposed load
line. The load line is a graph of the equation which is evident from the circuit of Fig.
7. Any point on the line represents a possible combination of platte current, and no
other combinations are possible.
2. The load line is most readily drawn by use of two points.
3. If the grid-bias voltage is E the zero-signal or quiescent condition is represented by
the point P, which is the intersection of the load line with the plate characteristic
corresponding to ЕЬ. This point will be referred to as the operating point, and when
the signal voltage EC is applied, the instantaneous relation between plate current and
plate potential will be represented by a point oscillating about P along the load line. If
the range of this oscillation is between A and B, the plate potential will fluctuate
between ЕЬ and Ec and the peak value of A.C. plate voltage will take place.
4. Steady and alternating components of plate current can be read from the diagram
in the same manner.
5. The operation of a tube with resistance load can also be represented by a line drawn
on the plot of mutual characteristics, but in this case the line depends not only on the
