Answer
When the voltage at input V1 is less than the voltage at input V2, the operational amplifier will output a low state. This typically leads to the output voltage (Vout) being close to 0 V.

Answer
When the voltages at both inputs are equal (V1 = V2), the operational amplifier is in a balanced state, resulting in Vout being at a neutral level, which is typically 0 V. Therefore, there is no output signal generated.
