COOLING and HEATING PROBLEMS

Newton’s law of cooling states that:

The time rate of change of the temperature of a body is


proportional to the temperature difference between the
body and its surrounding medium.
Example 1:

Solution:
Example 2: Example 3:

Determine the temperature of the bar described


in #1 after 10 minutes.

Solution: Solution:
Example 4:

Solution:
Example 5:

Find the initial temperature of the body described


int Ex #4, just as it is placed into the room..

Solution:
Example 6:
A certain radioactive material is known to decay at a rate proportional to the amount present. If
initially, there is 100 mg of the material present and if after 2 years it is observed that 5% of the
original mass decayed, ind an expression for the mass at any time t.

Solution:

= 95
Example 7:

In the Ex #6, determine the time necessary for 10% of the original
mass to decay.

Solution:
Example 8:
A certain radioactive material is known to decay at a rate proportional to the amount present. If
initially, 500 mg of the material is present and after 3 years, 20% of the original mass has decayed, ind
an expression for the mass at any time t.

Solution:
Example 9: Example 10:

For the material described in Ex #8, determine For the material described in Ex #8, determine the
the amount of remaining material after 25 years amount of remaining material after 200 weeks.

Solution: Solution:
Example 11: Example 12:

Determine the amount of time for the material in Determine the amount of time required for the
Ex #8 to decay to 30% of its original amount. material in Ex #8 to decay to 250 mg.

Solution: Solution:
POPULATION GROWTH PROBLEMS
Example 13:
A certain population of bacteria is known to grow at a rate proportional to the amount present in a
culture that provides plentiful food and space. Initially there are 250 bacteria, and after 7 hours, 800
bacteria are observed in the culture. Find an expression for the approximate number of bacteria present
in the culture at any time t.
Solution:
Example 14: Example 15:

Determine the approximate number of bacteria Determine the amount of time it will take for
in Ex #13 after 24 hours. the bacteria in Ex #13 to increase to 2500.

Solution: Solution:
GEOMETRIC PROBLEMS
Example 16:

perpendicular parabola
Solution:

(a) ind: the DE for the orthogonal trajectories

thus

DE for the
orthogonal family
DE for the family
of parabolas
