The temperature of a hot cup of coffee can be modelled by the DE

T'(t)=-k(T(t)-A)

(a) What is the significance of the constants K and A?

(b) Solve the DE for T (t) in terms of K, A and the initial temperatureT0

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) If the constant A is positive then the temperature of the hot cup of coffee modelled by the DE is positive and A is negative then the temperature of the hot cup of coffee modelled by the DE is negative.

(b)The solution is A=T0-Ce-kt

Explanation for Linear Differential operators and linear differential equations

A transformation T from C∞toC∞to of the form role="math" localid="1660801324664" T(f)=f(n)+an-1f(n-1)+...+a1f'+a0fis called an nth-order linear differential operator.Here f(k)denote the k-th derivative of function f and the coefficients akare complex scalars.

If T is an nth-order linear differential operator and g is a smooth function, then the equation becomes

T(f)=g

(or)

f(n)+an-1f(n-1)+...+a1f'+a0f=g

Is called an nth-order linear differential equation (DE).The DE is called homogeneous if g = 0 and inhomogeneous otherwise.

(a) Step 2: Explanation of the significance for the constants K and A

Consider the temperature of a hot cup of coffee can be modelled by the DE

T'(t)=k(T(t)-A)

Here k and A be the constants in the differential equation.

The constant is called the continuous growth rate if it is positive and the continuous decay rate if it is negative.

If the constant A is positive then the temperature of the hot cup of coffee modelled by the DE is positive and A is negative then the temperature of the hot cup of coffee modelled by the DE is negative.

Since both the constants k andA be the significant terms in the temperature of the hot cup of coffee modelled by the DE

(b) Step 3 : Solution for the DE for T(t) in terms k, A and the initial temperature T0

Consider the temperature of a hot cup of coffee can be modelled by the DE

T'(t)=k(T(t)-A)

Here k and A be the constants in the differential equation.

T'(t)=k(T(t)-A)T'(t)=-k(T(t))+kAT'(t)=(A-t)k∵T'(t)=dTdtdTdt=(A-T)kdTdt=-k(T-A)

Integrating on both sides we get,

dTdt=-k(T-A)dT(T-A)=-kdt∫dT(T-A)=∫-kdtlnT-A=-kt+CT-A=e-ktecT-A=Ce-ktT(t)=A+Ce-kt∵A=T-Ce-kt

Here initial temperature becomes T0and the solution is A=T0-Ce-kt.

Ngozi opens a bank account with an initial balance of 1,000 Nigerian naira. Let b(t) be the balance in the account at time t; we are told that b(0) = 1,000. The bank is paying interest at a continuous rate of 5% per year. Ngozi makes deposits into the account at a continuous rate of s(t) (measured in naira per year). We are told that s(0) = 1,000 and that s(t) is increasing at a continuous rate of 7% per year. (Ngozi can save more as her income goes up over time.)
