Consider two interconnected tanks as shown in the figure above. Tank 1 initial contains 90 L (liters) of water and 290 g of salt

, while tank 2 initially contains 60 L of water and 245 g of salt. Water containing 50 g/L of salt is poured into tank1 at a rate of 3.5 L/min while the mixture flowing into tank 2 contains a salt concentration of 40 g/L of salt and is flowing at the rate of 4 L/min. The two connecting tubes have a flow rate of 6 L/min from tank 1 to tank 2; and of 2.5 L/min from tank 2 back to tank 1. Tank 2 is drained at the rate of 7.5 L/min. You may assume that the solutions in each tank are thoroughly mixed so that the concentration of the mixture leaving any tank along any of the tubes has the same concentration of salt as the tank as a whole. (This is not completely realistic, but as in real physics, we are going to work with the approximate, rather than exact description. The 'real' equations of physics are often too complicated to even write down precisely, much less solve.) How does the water in each tank change over time

Let A_1 be the amount of salt in tank 1 at time t, and A_2 the amount of salt in the tank 2.

The volume of solution in either tank stays constant. In tank 1, at time t (min) we have

90\,\mathrm L+\underbrace{\left(3.5\dfrac{\rm L}{\rm min}-6\dfrac{\rm L}{\rm min}+2.5\dfrac{\rm L}{\rm min}\right)}_0t=90\,\mathrm L

In tank 2,

60\,\mathrm L+\underbrace{\left(4\dfrac{\rm L}{\rm min}+6\dfrac{\rm L}{\rm min}-2.5\frac{\rm L}{\rm min}-7.5\frac{\rm L}{\rm min}\right)}_0t=60\,\mathrm L

Then the concentration of salt in tanks 1 and 2 at any given time is \dfrac{A_1\,\rm g}{90\,\rm L} and \dfrac{A_2\,\rm g}{60\,\rm L}.

The net rate of change of the amount of salt in tanks 1 and 2 follows a simple rule:

\dfrac{\mathrm dA_i}{\mathrm dt}=(\text{rate in})-(\text{rate out})

Each rate is in units of g/min. Each L coming in or going out contributes or removes some salt depending on the flow rate (L/min) and concentration (g/L) of the solution in either tank. For tank 1, we have

\text{rate in}=\left(50\dfrac{\rm g}{\rm L}\right)\left(3.5\dfrac{\rm L}{\rm min}\right)+\left(\dfrac{A_2}{60}\dfrac{\rm g}{\rm L}\right)\left(2.5\dfrac{\rm L}{\rm min}\right)

\text{rate out}=\left(\dfrac{A_1}{90}\dfrac{\rm g}{\rm L}\right)\left(6\dfrac{\rm L}{\rm min}\right)

Then the amount of salt in tank 1 has rate of change (ignoring units)

\dfrac{\mathrm dA_1}{\mathrm dt}=-\dfrac{A_1}{15}+\dfrac{A_2}{24}+175

A similar breakdown for tank 2 shows a rate of change of

\dfrac{\mathrm dA_2}{\mathrm dt}=\dfrac{A_1}{15}-\dfrac{A_2}6+160

In matrix form, the system is described by

\begin{pmatrix}A_1\\A_2\end{pmatrix}'=\begin{pmatrix}-\frac1{15}&\frac1{24}\\\frac1{15}&-\frac16\end{pmatrix}\begin{pmatrix}A_1\\A_2\end{pmatrix}+\begin{pmatrix}175\\160\end{pmatrix}

You can solve this with the usual eigenvalue method and method of undetermined coefficients. You should get a general solution of

\begin{pmatrix}A_1\\A_2\end{pmatrix}=C_1\begin{pmatrix}5\\-6-2\sqrt{19}\end{pmatrix}e^{\frac{-7+\sqrt{19}}{60}t}+C_2\begin{pmatrix}5\\-6+2\sqrt{19}\end{pmatrix}e^{\frac{-7-\sqrt{19}}{60}t}+\begin{pmatrix}4300\\2680\end{pmatrix}

Then use the initial values A_1(0)=290 and A_2(0)=245 to solve for C_1,C_2 and find the particular solution.

Answer:

(a) A = 0.0800 m, λ = 20.9 m, f = 11.9 Hz

(b) 250 m/s

(c) 1250 N

(d) Positive x-direction

(e) 6.00 m/s

(f) 0.0365 m

Explanation:

(a) The standard form of the wave is:

y = A cos ((2πf) t ± (2π/λ) x)

where A is the amplitude, f is the frequency, and λ is the wavelength.

If the x term has a positive coefficient, the wave moves to the left.

If the x term has a negative coefficient, the wave moves to the right.

Therefore:

A = 0.0800 m

2π/λ = 0.300 m⁻¹

λ = 20.9 m

2πf = 75.0 rad/s

f = 11.9 Hz

(b) Velocity is wavelength times frequency.

v = λf

v = (20.9 m) (11.9 Hz)

v = 250 m/s

(c) The tension is:

T = v²ρ

where ρ is the mass per unit length.

T = (250 m/s)² (0.0200 kg/m)

T = 1250 N

(d) The x term has a negative coefficient, so the wave moves to the right (positive x-direction).

(e) The maximum transverse speed is Aω.

(0.0800 m) (75.0 rad/s)

6.00 m/s

(f) Plug in the values and find y.

y = (0.0800 m) cos((75.0 rad/s) (2.00 s) − (0.300 m⁻¹) (1.00 m))

y = 0.0365 m

you throw an object straight up at 15m/s. how fast is it going when it gets back to the height from which you threw it?
laiz [17]
At the same speed because it will slow down as it approaches the peak then speed up as it goes down again


it will be going 15m/s when it gets to the same height if we neglect air resistance and the object doesn't hit something

Draw and label a picture or make a real life model of something to display conservation of energy. Make sure it is something tha
sweet-ann [11.9K]
The picture shows it has a real life something to display conservation of energy  with kinetic energy and potential energy. 


Five sentences are for potential and kinetic energy. Potential energy is to energy an object when it stores. Kinetic energy is something to motion. When the potential energy is slows down the potential energy it might be increases. As from the object when the speeds up and it is decreases to potential energy.

Kinetic energy is to calculated by KE= mass×velocity²/2 as a fraction.

Potential energy is to calculated by PE= mass×g×height.

And the another picture it has a <span>energy, kinetic energy, mechanical energy, conservation of energy.

The new gravitation force at the new location is 40 N

Explanation:

The weight of the astronaut is given by the equation

F=mg (1)

where

m is the mass of the astronaut

g is the acceleration of gravity

The acceleration of gravity at a certain distance r from the centre of the Earth is given by

g=\frac{GM}{r^2}

where G is the gravitational constant and M is the Earth's mass. So we can rewrite eq.(1) as

F=\frac{GMm}{r^2}

When the astronaut is on the Earth's surface, r=R (where R is the Earth's radius), so his weight is

F=\frac{GMm}{R^2}=640 N

Later, he moves to another location where his distance from the Earth's surface is 3 times the previous distance, so the new distance from the Earth's centre is

r'=3R+R=4R

Therefore, the new weight is

F'=\frac{GMm}{(4R)^2}=\frac{1}{16}\frac{GMm}{R^2}=\frac{F}{16}

Which means that his weight has decreased by a factor 16: therefore, the new weight is

F'=\frac{640}{16}=40 N
