Math 2930 Worksheet 1 (SP12) Question 1: I toss a ball (of mass m) into the air with initial velocity

y vo and it experiences a drag force of bv a. Find the velocity of the ball, as a function of time. b. Now find the maximum height of the ball c. Does the max height depend on the initial velocity of the ball? Question 2: I now drop a rock of mass m into a very deep lake. As the ball sinks, it experiences drag force of bv2. Find the rocks terminal velocity does it depend on the rocks initial velocity? Question 3: Please solve the following IVPs and their intervals of validity a. y = -xy y(2) = 2 b. y = -xy y(2) = 0 (hint: use a direction field to analyze the solution) c. y = t + y y(2) = 2 Question 4: Consider the ODE y = ay + x. The solution y(x) contains the point (1,1), and it is also known that the tangent line to the solution curve at (1,1) has a slope of 2. Find y(x), and also its interval of validity Question 5: A 1500 gallon tank initially contains 600 gallons of water with 5 lbs of salt dissolved in it. Water enters the tank at a rate of 9 gal/hr and the water entering the tank has a salt concentration of 0.2(1 + cos(t)) lbs/gal. If a well-mixed solution leaves the tank at a rate of 6 gal/hr, how much salt is in the tank when it overflows?
