A fish tank initially contains 10 liters of pure water. Brine of constant, but unknown, concentration of salt is flowing in at 4 liters per minute. The solution is mixed well and drained at 4 liters per minute.

a. Let x be the amount of salt, in grams, in the fish tank after t minutes have elapsed. Find a formula for the rate of change in the amount of salt, dx/dt, in terms of the amount of salt in the solution x and the unknown concentration of incoming brine c.

dx/dt =

b. Find a formula for the amount of salt, in grams, after t minutes have elapsed. Your answer should be in terms of c and t.

x(t) =

c. In 25 minutes there are 25 grams of salt in the fish tank. What is the concentration of salt in the incoming brine?

a) dx/dt = 4*c - (4*x / 10) = 4*c - 0.4*x

b) x = 10*c - 10*c*e^(-0.4*t)

c)  c = 2.500 g / Liters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- Initial volume of pure water V_o = 10 Liters

- Inflow of brine Q_in = 4 Liters / min

- Outflow of mixture Q_out = 4 liters /min

Find:

a) Find a formula for the rate of change in the amount of salt, dx/dt, in terms of the amount of salt in the solution x and the unknown concentration of incoming brine c.

b) Find a formula for the amount of salt, in grams, after t minutes have elapsed. Your answer should be in terms of c and t.

c) In 25 minutes there are 25 grams of salt in the fish tank. What is the concentration of salt in the incoming brine?

Solution:

- We will define a constant (c) as concentration of salt as amount of salt in grams per liter.

- dx / dt is the amount of salt in grams per unit time t.

- We will construct a net flow balance:

                                dx / dt = Q_in*c - (amount of salt / V_o) *Q_out

- Denoting the amount of salt in grams to be x. then we have:

                                dx/dt = 4*c - (4*x / 10) = 4*c - 0.4*x

- Once we have formulated the ODE, we will solve it to get the amount of salt x in grams at any time t, as follows:

                               dx/dt = 4*c -0.4*x

- Separate variables:

                             dx / (4*c -0.4*x) = dt

- Integrate both sides:

                             - (10 / 4)*Ln | 4*c -0.4*x | = t + K

- Evaluate constant K, when t = 0, x = 0.

                               - (10 / 4)*Ln|4c| = K

- Input constant K back in solution:

                                  Ln |4*c -0.4*x| = -0.4*t + Ln|4c|

                                  4*c -0.4*x = 4c*e^(-0.4*t)

                                   x = 10*c - 10*c*e^(-0.4*t)

- Evaluate using the derived expression t = 25 mins and x = 25, compute c?

                                   x = 10*c - 10*c*e^(-0.4*t)

                                   25/10 = c ( 1 - e^(-0.4*25) )

                                    c = 2.5 / ( 1 - e^(-0.4*25) )

                                    c = 2.500 g / Liters

step-by-step explanation:

answer: ratio of volume of cone (with 3 times the height and equal diameter) to volume of cylinder is 2 to 1. the value of π is not used.

step-by-step explanation:

radius is diameter/2 = 4.

area of circle is π r^2.

volume of cylinder is height × area of base = hπr^2 = 3(4^2) π = 48π cubic inches.

not knowing the formula for volume of cone, i calculate it using calculus (which is for calculating things).

volume of cone is integral 0 to h area(y) dy. area(y) is π r(y)^2. r(y) runs r to zero as y runs zero to h, r(0) = r, r(h) = 0.

r(y) = r - r/h y

area(y) = π (r - r/h y)^2 = π (r^2 - 2r^2y/h + r^2y^2/h^2) = π r^2(1-2y/h+y^2/h^2)

antiderivative area(y) = π r^2 (y-y^2/h+y^3/(3h^2))

integral 0 to h = π r^2(h-h^2/h+h^3/(3h^2) - (0)) = π r^2(h - h + h/3) = π r^2(h/3) = π/3 r^2 h

volume of this cone is π/3(4^2)18 cubic inches.

= 6 16 π = 96π cubic inches.

cone has twice the volume, 96/48.

cone height is 6 times the cylinder.

ratio of volume formula: π r^2 cancels.

cone over cylinder ratio is 6h/3 to h, 2 to 1.
