Water flows in a little tank, which has a leak. At the moment t=0 the tank is empty. The volume of the tank is Vcm3 at the moment (t) minutes. Water flows in the tank at a flow of 80m3 per minute. Due to the leak water leak out of the tank with a flow of kV cm3 per minute where k is a positive constant. (i) By using a differential equation show that: V=1/k (A-Ae-kt) where A is a real positive a to be determinate. (ii) Determinate the value of k when t=15 and V=500

Water flows in a little tank, which has a leak. At the moment t=0 the tank is empty. The volume of the tank is Vcm3 at the moment (t) minutes. Water flows in the tank at a flow of 80m3 per minute. Due to the leak water leak out of the tank with a flow of kV cm3 per minute where k is a positive constant.

(i) By using a differential equation show that: V=1/k (A-Ae-kt) where A is a real positive a to be determinate.

(ii) Determinate the value of k when t=15 and V=500
