Two large tanks, each holding 100L of liquid, are interconnected by pipes, with the liquid flowing from tank A into tank B at a rate of 3L/min and from B into A at a rate of 1L/min. The liquid inside each tank is kept well stirred. A brine solution with a concentration of 0.1kg/L of salt flows into tank A at a rate of 6L/min. The (diluted) solution flows out of the system from tank A at 4L/min and from tank B at 2L/min. If initially, tank A contains pure water and tank B contains 10kg of salt, determine the mass of salt in each tank at time t≥0. What is the solution to the system? x(t)=

While analyzing a sample of ore, a geologist finds that it weighs 2.00 N in air and 1.13 N when immersed in water. Calculate the density of the ore.
Porosity is a measure of the void or empty spaces in a material and is a fraction of the volume of voids over the total volume. The density of the solid material used to create 7 pieces of 0.72 cm diameter and 0.92 cm height cylindrical beads is determined to be 1.57 g/mL. These beads were then placed in a flask and was filled to the 35 mL mark with a salt solution. The total weight measured of the beads and the salt solution was 42.49 g. Upon further inspection, it was found that manufacturing defects caused the measured porosity of the beads to be at 21%. Assuming that the solution was able to fully fill the empty spaces inside the beads, calculate the density of the salt solution.

- A 50 – gallon tank of pure water has a brine mixture with concentration of 2 pounds per gallon entering at the rate of 5 gallons per minute. At the same time the well-mixed contents drain out at the rate of 5 gallons per minute. Find the amount of salt in the tank at time t=80 minutes. In all such problems one assumes that the solution is well mixed at each instant of time. A tank initially contains 600 L of solution in which there is dissolved 1500 g of chemical. A solution containing 5 g/L of the chemical flows into the tank at a rate of 6 L/min, and the well-stirred mixture flows out at a rate of 3 L/min. Determine the concentration of chemical in the tank after one hour.arrow_forwardSeawater has a salinity of 3.5%, meaning that if you boil away a kilogram of seawater, when you're finished you'll have 35 g of solids (mostly NaCI) left in the pot.
