Question 38 (L.O.2). Boyle’s law states that when a sample of gas is compressed at a constant temper-
ature, the pressure P and volume V satisfy equation P V = C = const. Suppose that at a certain instant
the volume is 647cm3 , the pressure is 184kP A, and the pressure is increasing at a rate of 28kP A/min.
At what rate is the volume decreasing at this instant?
A 98.1919 B 99.3825 C 98.4565 D 97.6455 E 98.362
Solution
P V = C = const, (3)
where P and V are functions of the time t in minutes, so we can differentiate both sides of equation (3)
with respect to time and receive
dP dV
·V +P · = 0. (4)
dt dt
Since the pressure P is increasing at a rate of 28 kPA/min, so
dP

Substituting these, as well as V = 647cm3 and P = 184kP A, into equations (4) yields

A family plans to organize a party at a restaurant. The overall service cost for the event (venue, decoration,

accommodating 11 people. The cost per guest is 250 thousand Vietnamese dong. The family plans to spend a
maximum of 28.25 million Vietnamese dong. If we denote x as the number of invited guests, C(x) (in million
Vietnamese dong) represents the cost for the party.
Solution
250
We have C(x) = 8 + × x. The restaurant requires a minimum of 2 tables, each table accommodating

11 people, so x ⩾ 22. On the another hand, the family plans to spend a maximum of 28.25 million, hence

selling price per device is p(x) = −0.002x + 8.6, (0 ⩽ x ⩽ 800) (million Vietnamese dong).

Solution
The company’s revenue is R(x) = x.p(x) = x(−0.002x + 8.6). Therefore, the company’s revenue (million

Question 108 (L.O.2). A tank initially contains 80 grams of salt dissolved in 100 liters of water. Pure
water flows into the tank at the rate of 12 liters per minute, and the well stirred mixture flows out of the
tank at the same rate. How much salt does the tank contain after 2 minutes?

dt
the rate at which it is flowing out.

2. Step 2. The rate at which salt enters the tank is the concentration 0 gr/l times the flow rate 12 l/min
or 0 gr/min.
3. Step 3. To find the rate at which salt leaves the tank, we need to multiply the concentration of salt
in the tank by the rate of outflow, 12 l/min. The volume of water in the tank remains constant at 100
liters, and since the mixture is well-stirred, the concentration throughout the tank is the same, namely,

contain when the tank is full?
Solution

1. Step 1. The rate of change of salt in the tank, is equal to the rate at which salt is flowing in minus

the rate at which it is flowing out.
dQ

2. Step 2. The rate at which salt enters the tank is the concentration 0 gr/l times the flow rate 12 l/min

3. Step 3. To find the rate at which salt leaves the tank, we need to multiply the concentration of salt in
the tank by the rate of outflow, 2 l/min. The volume of water in the tank after t minutes is 100 + (12 −
2)t = 100+10t liters, and since the mixture is well-stirred, the concentration throughout the tank is the

Question 115 (L.O.2). Recall that a spring with mass m, spring constant k relaxing after being stretched
will be in motion, where its position x(t) satisfies the following differential equation mx′′ (t) + kx = 0.
Let study one spring with m = 2 and k = 32. Given initial condition x(0) = 6, x′ (0) = 4, evaluate
numerically its position at t = 2.
Solution
mx′′ (t) + kx = 0.
y ′ (t) = 5x + 10y + (t − 1)
Solution
k1 = 5, k2 = 9
The particular solution has a form xr = ts .e0t .(At + B). Since α = 0 is NOT a root of the characteristic
equation, so s = 0 and xr = At + B.
