- The following Problem deals with the closed three-tank system of Fig. 5.2.5 (Attached) , which is described by the equations in (24). Mixed brine flows from tank 1 into tank 2, from tank 2 into tank 3, and from tank 3 into tank 1, all at the given flow rate r gallons per minute. The initial amounts x1 (0) = x0 (pounds), x2(0) = 0, and x3(0) = 0 of salt in the three tanks are given, as are their volumes V1, V2, and V3 (in gallons). First solve for the amounts of salt in the three tanks at time t, then determine the limiting amount (as t → + ∞) of salt in each tank. Finally, construct a figure showing the graphs of x1(t), x2 (t), and x3(t). r = 120, x0 = 33, V1 = 20, V2 = 6, V3 = 40arrow_forward1- Solve the following systems linear differential equations (by elimination) ey i S @ P T dx dy i R t —_= (b) =X y4iet; P x+3y dx dy (C)E—y—t, E—x+tarrow_forward10.The average sizes of the prey and predator populations are defined as ¯x=1T∫A+TAx(t)dt,¯y=1T∫A+TAy(t)dt,x¯=1T∫AA+Txtdt,y¯=1T∫AA+Tytdt, respectively, where T is the period of a full cycle, and A is any nonnegative constant. a.Using the approximation (24), which is valid near the critical point, show that ¯x=c/γx¯=c/γ and ¯y=a/αy¯=a/α. b.For the solution of the nonlinear system (2) shown in Figure 9.5.3, estimate ¯xx¯ and ¯yy¯ as well as you can. Try to determine whether ¯xx¯ and ¯yy¯ are given by c/γ and a/α, respectively, in this case. Hint: Consider how you might estimate the value of an integral even though you do not have a formula for the integrand. c.Calculate other solutions of the system (2)—that is, solutions satisfying other initial conditions—and determine ¯xx¯ and ¯yy¯ for these solutions. Are the values of ¯xx¯ and ¯yy¯ the same for all solutions? In Problems 11 and 12, we consider the effect of modifying the equation for the prey x by including a term −σx2 so that…arrow_forward
