As a spring is heated, its spring constant decreases. Suppose the spring is heated and then cooled so that the
spring constant at time t is k(t) = t sin + N/m. If the mass-spring system has mass m = 2 kg and a
damping constant b = 1 N-sec/m with initial conditions x(0) = 6 m and x'(0) = -5 m/sec and it is
subjected to the harmonic external force f (t) = 100 cos 3t N. Find at least the first four nonzero terms in
a power series expansion about t = 0, i.e. Maclaurin series expansion, for the displacement:

Plot solutions for first two, three and four non-zero terms as well as the Simulink solution on the same graph
for the first 15 sec. The graph must be fully formatted by code.
Two springs and two masses are attached in a straight vertical line as shown in Figure Q3. The system is set
in motion by holding the mass m₂ at its equilibrium position and pushing the mass m₁ downwards of its
equilibrium position a distance 2 m and then releasing both masses. if m₁ = m² = 1 kg, k₁ = 3 N/m and
k₂ = 2 N/m.

Two large tanks, each holding 100 L of liquid, are interconnected by pipes, with the liquid flowing from tank
A into tank B at a rate of 3 L/min and from B into A at a rate of 1 L/min (see Figure Q1). The liquid inside each
tank is kept well stirred. A brine solution with a concentration of 0.2 kg/L of salt flows into tank A at a rate of
6 L/min. The diluted solution flows out of the system from tank A at 4 L/min and from tank B at 2 L/min. If,
initially, tank A contains pure water and tank B contains 20 kg of salt.
