A salt solution with 1/5 pound of salt per gallon is added to the tank at 10 gal/min, and the resulting mixture is drained out at 5 gal/min. Let Q(t) denote the quantity (lbs) of salt at time t (min). (a) Write a differential equation for Q(t) which is valid up until the point at which the tank overflows.

Starting at to = 0, water that contains 1/4 g of salt per liter is poured into the tank at the rate of 4 liters/min and the mixture is drained from the tank at the rate of 2 liters/min. Determine the quantity Q(t) of salt in the tank at time t = 0 until the time when the tank overflows. Code a C program which determined this quantity Q(t) by using RK4 method with h = 1. Note: May use the concept of function prototypes, function definition, function call, recursion etc. in a program. 2. A team of surveyors conducted depth-sounding at equidistant locations across the river to measure the area of a river cross-section. Determine the area of the cross-section by coding a C program of the Composite Simpson Rule, taking into consideration the river's 6.0 m width and the fact that it is equally divided into 7 stations.

The wire is 0.357 m long and has a mass of 9.50 g. It is fixed at both ends and oscillates in its fundamental mode. By resonance, it sets the air column in the tube into oscillation at that column's fundamental frequency. Assume that the speed of sound in air is 343 m/s, find (a) that frequency and (b) the tension in the wire.
