a tank contains 200 liters of fluid in which 30 grams of salt is dissolved. brine containing 1 gram of salt per liter is then pumped into the tank at a rate of 4 l/min; the well-mixed solution is pumped out at the same rate. find the number a(t) of grams of salt in the tank at time t.



Answer :

The quantity of salt in the tank at period t equivalents A(t) = 200 - 130 e(-t/40).

Initially, the tank has A(0) = 50 g of salt.

The rate of salt entryway is (1 g/L) × (5 L/min) = 5 g/min

And a rate of (A(t) ÷ 200 g/L) × (5 L/min) = (A(t) ÷ 40) g/min,

As an outcome, the quantity of salt in the tank modifications as

A'(t) = (5 - A(t)) ÷ 40.

Solve ODE for A(t):

A'(t) + (A(t) ÷ 40) = 4

[tex]e^{\frac{(t)}{40} }[/tex] A'(t) + ([tex]e^{\frac{(t)}{40} }[/tex] ÷ 40 A(t)) = 4[tex]e^{\frac{(t)}{40} }[/tex]

([tex]e^{\frac{(t)}{40} }[/tex] A(t))' = 4[tex]e^{\frac{(t)}{40} }[/tex]

[tex]e^{\frac{(t)}{40} }[/tex] A(t) = 160[tex]e^{\frac{(t)}{40} }[/tex] + C

A(t) = 160 + C[tex]e^{\frac{(t)}{40} }[/tex]

Given A(0) = 30, conclude that

30 = 160 + C

C = -130,

This denotes that the quantity of salt in the tank at period t equivalents

A(t) = 200 - 130 e(-t ÷ 40).
