A: By applying two known DC input with a known gain the output will be there to prove the difference.
I assume you mean a differential amplifier. A differential amplifier has two outputs, and two inputs. One input may be grounded out, so there is only one apparent input. When a signal is applied to the non grounded input, it is amplified at one output. The circuitry causes a negative ampification at the other output, so the two outputs taken together give double the output as opposed to using just one.
If the output of the operational amplifier is inconsistent with the inputs, then you are operating outside of the limits of the device. You might also have experienced lockup, a characteristic where the output locks in one state, but this still stems from operating outside of limits. Make sure the inputs are always within the specified range.
Because that is the accepted convention. The triangle is the symbol for an amplifier, be it a differential amplifier with two inputs, such as an op-amp, or be it single ended, such as a simple transistor. The triangle symbol is used to show a block diagram of something that might have multiple things inside it, which the op-amp does. It is not generally used to represent a simple transistor, unless you were showing a block diagram. The triangle symbol is also used in digital logic diagrams, to indicate buffers (again, amplifiers), or inverters.
It's function is to perform integer and difference solutions to analog inputs. It has - and + inputs. By choosing capacitive or resistive feedback you can alter the signal as needed. <><><> An operational amplifier, often called an op-amp , is a DC-coupled high-gain electronic voltage amplifier with differential inputs and, usually, a single output. Typically the output of the op-amp is controlled either by negative feedback, which largely determines the magnitude of its output voltage gain, or by positive feedback, which facilitates regenerative gain and oscillation. High input impedance at the input terminals and low output impedance are important typical characteristics. Op-amps are among the most widely used electronic devices today, being used in a vast array of consumer, industrial, and scientific devices. External components govern the circuit characteristics. As well as an amplifier designed to respond to a difference in voltage at the two input terminals, another type is designed to respond to different currents at the inputs. This is the Norton op-amp. Modern designs are electronically more rugged than earlier implementations and some can sustain direct short-circuits on their outputs without damage. <><><> An operational amplifier is a voltage amplifier that amplifies the differential voltage between a pair of input nodes. It is a DC-coupled high-gain electronic amplifier with differential inputs and usually a single output. One input is an inverting input and the other input is a non-inverting input. Within limits, the output goes to whatever value is required in order to make the two inputs have the same value. This means there is usually a negative feedback circuit between output and the inverting input. For an ideal operational amplifier, also called an op amp, the amplification gain is infinite.

I assume you're referring to an amplifier circuit. In a differential amplifier, there are two inputs. The common mode output voltage is the output voltage that will result from the same voltage being applied to both inputs. Typically this is very low, as the common mode rejection ratio (CMRR) is very high in a differential amplifier. This is an ideal characteristic (high CMRR) as it means unwanted noise will not be amplified and potentially squelch out the desired signal; this is why a differential amplifier is used in high quality sound equipment. Three wires are used - a ground, and two signal wires that are opposite each other. Noise will inherently "hop on" the signal wires, but as they are close to one another, it is likely the noise will be nearly the same magnitude and sign on each wire. Since the amplifier CMRR is high, this noise does not propogate through the amplifier, while the original signal is amplified.

You connect the mixers main outputs to the inputs of the amplifier and the outputs of the amplifier to speakers

You want an amplifier to reject common mode signals (the same signal applied to both inputs of a differential amplifier) because:it is generally noise, which sounds like staticit can cause drift in the amplifier eventually saturating it, causing clipping distortionBTW, single ended input amplifiers by definition have a CMRR of zero.
A:from a single ended none main concern is offset voltages and current offset and for some latch-up Further explanation: A differential amplifier is actually a very advanced (and good!) amplifier - it (at a minimum) consists of two transistors and biasing schemes, and in a basic form has two inputs and two outputs - one output is inverting, the other is non inverting, thus the two outputs can be used together to provide a 3dB (2 x) gain over using a single output. From a signal to noise ratio, a differential amplifier is also a cut above if implemented correctly and designed well. For the best results, a positive and negative signal should be transmitted to the amplifier. One goes to either input of the amplifier, with the other to the other input. Noise inherently will be added onto both of these lines, but the noise will tend to be in the same direction for both. A differential amplifier has a high "common mode rejection", which means if the same voltage is applied to both inputs, the output will not change (it only amplifies the difference between the inputs). This is why sound boards and a lot of other A/V equipment use differential amplifiers. If these features are not important for your design, then the added complexity of circuitry (usually requiring a positive and negative voltage, multiple transistors, etc.) becomes a disadvantage. Also, if you are just starting out, designing one well may be a bit over your head (a clear disadvantage when you don't know what's going on in the circuit - it becomes very difficult to trouble shoot).
If it has auxiliary inputs, such as a line level input, then yes, it should be able to serve as an amplifier. Be warned though that it probably won't work well as a guitar / instrument amplifier.
CT's are used as inputs to the differential. If the CT is bad, or it is not wired to the differential correctly, it will cause differential current to be seen by the relay, resulting in a trip.
It can be, but may not be required. Capacitors are used for biasing purposes, to remove DC from inputs, and for filtering in amplifier circuits (just to name a few).
The main difference from linear attack is that differential attack involves comparing the XOR of two inputs to the XOR of the corresponding outputs.
It converts the output from your car radio to a lower level so the inputs to your amplifier aren't overloaded.
