A tank contains 350 liters of fluid in which 10 grams of salt is dissolved. Brine containing 1 gram of salt per liter is then pumped into the tank at a rate of 5 L/min; the well-mixed solution is pumped out at the same rate. Find the number A(t) of grams of salt in the tank at time t.

Explanation:

Since fluid is pumping in and out at the same rate (5L/min), the total fluid volume in the tank stays constant at 350L. Only the amount of salt and its concentration changed overtime.

Let A(t) be the amount of salt (g) at time t and C(t) (g/L) be the concentration at time t

A(0) = 10 g

Brine with concentration of 1g/L is pouring in at the rate of 5L/min so the salt income rate is 5 g/min

The well-mixed solution is pouring out at the rate of 5L/min at concentration C(t) so the salt outcome rate is 5C g/min

But the concentration is total amount of salt over 350L constant volume

C = A / 350

Therefore our rate of change for salt A' is

A' = 5 - 5A/350 = 5 - A/70

This is a first-order linear ordinary differential equation and it has the form of y' = a + by. The solution of this is

So

with A(0) = 10

c + 350 = 10

c = 10 - 350 = -340
