A tank contains 500L of salty water. Pure water is pumped in at a rate of 10 L/sec, and the the mixture is pumped out at a rate of 15L/ sec. If the concentration of salt is 5g/L initially, form an equation of amount of salt, s, at t seconds.

This is a word problem with the task of forming a first order differential equation (or DE), and involves two major aspects that need to be worked out: the volume of water in the tank at any given point, ...

Find the volume of revolution about the x-axis of the curve y=1/sqrt(x^2+2x+2) for 0<x<1

The volume of revolution is given by integrating Piy2 dx from 0 to 1.Squaring, y2=1/(x2+2x+2)Completing the square, we see that y=1/((x+1)2+1)Make the subst...

Particles P and Q move in a plane with constant velocities. At time t = 0 the position vectors of P and Q, relative to a fixed point O in the plane, are (16i - 12j) m and -5i + 4j) m respectively. The velocity of P is (i + 2j) m/s and the velocity of Q

is (2i + j) m/s. Find the shortest distance between P and Q in the subsequent motion. This is an m4 question from the edexcel June 2015 paper. First I would explain to the student that I would form an equ...

Using a Taylor's series or otherwise; derive Euler's Formula

Use the Taylor series expansion for the following three functions: f(θ) = e^(iθ), g(θ) = cos(θ) and h(θ) = sin(θ). We should find that f(θ) = e^(iθ) = 1 + iθ - (θ^2/2!) - i(θ^3/3!) + ... = Sum(θ^n/n!), g(...
