The change in volume can be modelled by considering the amount of water entering andleaving the tank (per unit of time) as followsdVdt= fin − fout.Here volume of water in the tank V is in litres, flow rate in fin is in litres per hour, flow rate out fout isin litres per hour and time t is in hours. Initially, the tank contains 50L of water: V (0) = 50.(a) Assume the rainfall throughout the day is getting heavier, such that, fin(t) = 10 + t andthat the tank is losing 10% of its volume of water per hour, such that, fout(V ) = 0.1V . Check bydirect substitution that the functionV (t) = 10(t + 5e−0.1t)satisfies the ODE and the initial condition.Now assume that the hole is slowly growing in size, so that the flow rate out increaseswith time:fout(V, t) = 0.1(1 + 0.1t)V.Solve the ordinary differential equation for V (t) with this flow rate out, using either separation…arrow_forward
