In a tank are 100 L of brine containing 50 kg total of dissolved salt. Pure water is allowed to run into the tank at the rate of 3 L/min. Brine runs out of the tank at the rate of 2 L/min. The instantaneous concentration in the tank is kept uniform by stirring. How much salt is in the tank at the end of 1 hr?
