Question 48

ce-1NAT2 marksNeeds review
A

tank of 3 m height has inflow, outflow and stirring mechanisms. Initially, the tank was half-filled with fresh water. At

, an inflow of a salt solution of concentration 5 g/m

at the rate of 2 litres/s and an outflow of the well stirred mixture at the rate of 1 litre/s are initiated. This process can be modeled using the following differential equation:

where m is the mass (grams) of the salt at time t (seconds). The mass of the salt (in grams) in the tank at 75% of its capacity is __________ (rounded off to 2 decimal places).
