Thanks everyone. I'll do the Colorado lab tonight!

Since the open loop gain of the old 741 opamp is about 8000 at 100Hz and the gain is set to 10, then the output impedance is about 1 ohm.
The output impedance is about 75 ohms at DC with no negative feedback and at a high frequency where there is little open loop gain, because then there is no negative feedback to reduce it.
My calculation for the output impedance at 100Hz might be wrong. I have never calculated or measured the output impedance of an opamp, but I know that negative feedback reduces the output impedance of an amplifier.
