A tank contains 2580 L of pure water. A solution that contains 0.05 kg of sugar per liter enters a tank at the rate 8 L/min The solution is mixed and drains from the tank at the same rate. (a) How much sugar is in the tank initially? 0 (kg) (b) Find the amount of sugar in the tank after t minutes. amount = 129 (kg) (your answer should be a function of t) (c) Find the concentration of sugar in the solution in the tank after 33 minutes. concentration = 0.05 (kg/L)

A driver of a car stopped at a gas station to fill up his gas tank. He looked at his watch, and the time read exactly 3:40 p.m. At this time, he started pumping gas into the tank. At exactly 3:44, the tank was full and he noticed that he had pumped 10.7 gallons. What is the average rate of flow of the gasoline into the gas tank?
The resistance of a copper wire carrying an electrical current is directly proportional to its length and inversely proportional to its cross-sectional area. A copper wire with a diameter of 0.0126inch has a resistance of 64.9ohms per thousand feet. What length of 0.0201-inch-diameter copper wire will produce a resistance of 33.5ohms?
