A tank with a capacity of 1000 L is full of a mixture of water and chlorine with a concentration of 0.02 g of chlorine per liter

. In order to reduce the concentration of chlorine, fresh water is pumped into the tank at a rate of 10 L/s. The mixture is kept stirred and is pumped out at a rate of 25 L/s. Find the amount of chlorine in the tank as a function of time. (Let y be the amount of chlorine in grams and t be the time in seconds.)

At the start, the tank contains

(0.02 g/L) * (1000 L) = 20 g

of chlorine. Let <em>c</em> (<em>t</em> ) denote the amount of chlorine (in grams) in the tank at time <em>t </em>.

Pure water is pumped into the tank, so no chlorine is flowing into it, but is flowing out at a rate of

(<em>c</em> (<em>t</em> )/(1000 + (10 - 25)<em>t</em> ) g/L) * (25 L/s) = 5<em>c</em> (<em>t</em> ) /(200 - 3<em>t</em> ) g/s

In case it's unclear why this is the case:

The amount of liquid in the tank at the start is 1000 L. If water is pumped in at a rate of 10 L/s, then after <em>t</em> s there will be (1000 + 10<em>t</em> ) L of liquid in the tank. But we're also removing 25 L from the tank per second, so there is a net "gain" of 10 - 25 = -15 L of liquid each second. So the volume of liquid in the tank at time <em>t</em> is (1000 - 15<em>t </em>) L. Then the concentration of chlorine per unit volume is <em>c</em> (<em>t</em> ) divided by this volume.

So the amount of chlorine in the tank changes according to

\dfrac{\mathrm dc(t)}{\mathrm dt}=-\dfrac{5c(t)}{200-3t}

which is a linear equation. Move the non-derivative term to the left, then multiply both sides by the integrating factor 1/(200 - 5<em>t</em> )^(5/3), then integrate both sides to solve for <em>c</em> (<em>t</em> ):

\dfrac{\mathrm dc(t)}{\mathrm dt}+\dfrac{5c(t)}{200-3t}=0

\dfrac1{(200-3t)^{5/3}}\dfrac{\mathrm dc(t)}{\mathrm dt}+\dfrac{5c(t)}{(200-3t)^{8/3}}=0

\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dt}\left[\dfrac{c(t)}{(200-3t)^{5/3}}\right]=0

\dfrac{c(t)}{(200-3t)^{5/3}}=C

c(t)=C(200-3t)^{5/3}

There are 20 g of chlorine at the start, so <em>c</em> (0) = 20. Use this to solve for <em>C</em> :

20=C(200)^{5/3}\implies C=\dfrac1{200\cdot5^{1/3}}

\implies\boxed{c(t)=\dfrac1{200}\sqrt[3]{\dfrac{(200-3t)^5}5}}

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle is total is 138 degrees. Part of the entire angle is already given (the 88 degree measure), so all you have to do is subtract 88 from 138, which is 50.

What is a right angle degree
Luba_88 [7]

A right angle degree is always 90 degrees, or 1/4 of the full amount of degrees, which is 360. 90 degrees, is also pi/2 radians, which you will learn in trigonometry and pre-calc.
