. A marine biologist needs to add a new chemical to one of her fish tanks (300 L in volume). She adds a chemical solution with c

oncentration 5 mg L at a rate of 3 L min , and the well-mixed fluid drains out of the tank at the same rate. a. Write a differential equation to model the rate of change of the amount of new chemical y in the tank at time t.

Answer:

A differential equation to model the rate of change of the amount of new chemical y in the tank at time t is given as

(dy/dt) = 15 - 0.01y

Step-by-step explanation:

First of, we take the overall balance for the system,

Let V = volume of solution in the tank at any time

The rate of change of the volume of solution in the tank = (Rate of flow into the tank) - (Rate of flow out of the tank)

The rate of change of the volume of solution = (dV/dt)

- Rate of flow into the tank = Fᵢ = 3 L/min

- Rate of flow out of the tank = F = 3 L/min

(dV/dt) = Fᵢ - F

(dV/dt) = (Fᵢ - F) = 3 - 3 = 0

dV = 0 dt

∫ dV = 0 ∫ dt

V = 0 + c = c

where c = constant of integration.

At t = 0, V = 300 L

With the flow rate in and out of the tank the same, then it means the volume of the tank is unchanged.

Component balance for the amount of chemical in the tank.

- Let the initial amount of chemical in the tank be y₀ = 0 mg

- Let the rate of flow of the amount of chemical coming into the tank = yᵢ = 5 mg/L × 3 L/min = 15 mg/min

- If the amount of chemical in the tank, at any time = y mg

- Concentration of chemical in the tank at any time = (y/V) mg/L = (y/300) mg/L

- Rate at which that amount of chemical is leaving the tank = 3 L/min × (y/300) mg/L = (y/100) mg/L = (0.01y) mg/L

Rate of Change in the amount of chemical in the tank = (Rate of flow of chemical into the tank) - (Rate of flow of chemical out of the tank)

(dy/dt) = 15 - 0.01y

Hope this Helps!!!

Subtract the given function and indicate the domain of the difference
maxonik [38]

Answer:

The domain is x\in (-\infty,\infty).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given functions f(x)=x^2+3x+1 and g(x)=2x^2-4x-1

Subtract these two functions:

f(x)-g(x)\\ \\=(x^2+3x+1)-(2x^2-4x-1)\\ \\=x^2+3x+1-2x^2+4x+1\\ \\=(x^2-2x^2)+(3x+4x)+(1+1)\\ \\=-x^2+7x+2

Plot these difference on the coordinate plane (see attached diagram). This function is defined for all vlues of x, so the domain is x\in (-\infty,\infty).
