Family of Curves

A family of curves is a group of curves that are each described by a parametrization in which one or more variables are parameters. In general, the parameters have more complexity on the assembly of the curve than an ordinary linear transformation. These…

XZ Plane

In order to understand XZ plane, it's helpful to understand two-dimensional and three-dimensional spaces. To plot a point on a plane, two numbers are needed, and these two numbers in the plane can be represented as an ordered pair (a,b) where a and b are…

Euclidean Geometry

Geometry is the branch of mathematics that deals with flat surfaces like lines, angles, points, two-dimensional figures, etc. In Euclidean geometry, one studies the geometrical shapes that rely on different theorems and axioms. This (pure mathematics) ge…

Lines and Angles

In a two-dimensional plane, a line is simply a figure that joins two points. Usually, lines are used for presenting objects that are straight in shape and have minimal depth or width.

2. A tank with a capacity of 650 gal. originally contains 200 gal of water with 100 lb. of salt in solution. Water containing 1 lb. of salt per gallon is entering at a rate of 4 gal/min, and the mixture is allowed to flow out of the tank at a rate of 3 gal/min. a. Find the amount of salt in the tank at any time prior to the instant when the tank begins to overflow (650 gallons). b. Find the concentration (in pounds per gallon) of salt in the tank when the tank hits 400 gallons. D.E. for mixture problems: dv dt=11-12 dA A(t) dt

- Suppose that you have the differential equation: dy = (y - 2) (y+3) dx a. What are the equilibrium solutions for the differential equation? b. Where is the differential equation increasing or decreasing? Show how you know. Showing them on the drawing is not enough. c. Where are the changes in concavity for the differential equation? Show how you know. Showing them on the drawing is not enough. d. Consider the slope field for the differential equation. Draw solution curves given the following initial conditions: i. y(0) = -5 ii. y(0) = -1 iii. y(0) = 2

5. Suppose that a mass of 5 stretches a spring 10. The mass is acted on by an external force of F(t)=10 sin () and moves in a medium that gives a damping coefficient of ½. If the mass is set in motion with an initial velocity of 3 and is stretched initially to a length of 5. (I purposefully removed the units- don't worry about them. Assume no conversions are needed.) a) Find the equation for the displacement of the spring mass at time t. b) Write the equation for the displacement of the spring mass in phase-mode form. c) Characterize the damping of the spring mass system as overdamped, underdamped or critically damped. Explain how you know. D.E. for Spring Mass Systems k m* g = kLo y" +—y' + — —±y = —±F(t), y(0) = yo, y'(0) = vo m 2 A₁ = √c₁² + C₂² Q = tan-1
