Stefan鈥檚 law of radiation states that the rate of change in the temperature of a body at T (t) kelvins in a medium at M (t) kelvins is proportional to . That is, where K is a constant. Let and assume that the medium temperature is constant, M (t) = 293 kelvins. If T (0) = 360 kelvins, use Euler鈥檚 method with h = 3.0 min to approximate the temperature of the body after
(a) 30 minutes.
(b) 60 minutes.
Combat Model.A simplified mathematical model for conventional versus guerrilla combat is given by the system where and are the strengths of guerrilla and conventional troops, respectively, and 0.1 and 1 are the combat effectiveness coefficients.Who will win the conflict: the conventional troops or the guerrillas? [Hint:Use the vectorized Runge鈥揔utta algorithm for systems with h=0.1to approximate the solutions.]
Let c >0. Show that the function is a solution to the initial value problemon the interval. Note that this solution becomes unbounded as x approaches . Thus, the solution exists on the interval with , but not for larger. This illustrates that in Theorem 1, the existence interval can be quite small (IFC is small) or quite large (if c is large). Notice also that there is no clue from the equation itself, or from the initial value, that the solution will 鈥渂low up鈥 at.
In problems 1-6, identify the independent variable, dependent variable, and determine whether the equation is linear or nonlinear.
Mixing.Suppose a brine containing 0.2 kg of salt per liter runs into a tank initially filled with 500 L of water containing 5 kg of salt. The brine enters the tank at a rate of 5 L/min. The mixture, kept uniform by stirring, is flowing out at the rate of 5 L/min (see Figure 2.6).

(a)Find the concentration, in kilograms per liter, of salt in the tank after 10 min. [Hint:LetAdenote the number of kilograms of salt in the tank attminutes after the process begins and use the fact that
rate of increase inA=rate of input- rate of exit.
A further discussion of mixing problems is given in Section 3.2.]
(b)After 10 min, a leak develops in the tank and an additional liter per minute of mixture flows out of the tank (see Figure 2.7). What will be the concentration, in kilograms per liter, of salt in the tank 20 min after the leak develops? [Hint:Use the method discussed in Problems 31 and 32.]
