Question
Assume that a rain drop evaporates at a rate proportional to its surface area. Form a differential equation involving the rate of change of the radius of the rain drop.
Advertisements
Solution
Let the surface area of the raindrop be \[A\]
Thus, the rate of evaporation will be given by \[\frac{dV}{dt}\]
As per the given condition,
\[\frac{dV}{dt} \propto A\]
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{dV}{dt} = - kA\]
Here, k is a constant. Also, the negative sign appears when V decreases and t increases.
Now, \[V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3\]
Here, `r` is the radius of the spherical drop.
\[\therefore \frac{d}{dt}\left( \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 \right) = - k \times 4 \pi r^2 \]
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{4}{3} \times 3\pi r^2 \frac{dr}{dt} = - k \times 4\pi r^2 \]
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{dr}{dt} = - k \]
It is therequired differential equation.

Solve the following differential equation `("d"y)/("d"x)` = cos(x + y)
Solution: `("d"y)/("d"x)` = cos(x + y) ......(1)
Put `square`
∴ `1 + ("d"y)/("d"x) = "dv"/("d"x)`
∴ `("d"y)/("d"x) = "dv"/("d"x) - 1`
∴ (1) becomes `"dv"/("d"x) - 1` = cos v
∴ `"dv"/("d"x)` = 1 + cos v
∴ `square` dv = dx
Integrating, we get
`int 1/(1 + cos "v") "d"v = int "d"x`
∴ `int 1/(2cos^2 ("v"/2)) "dv" = int "d"x`
∴ `1/2 int square "dv" = int "d"x`
∴ `1/2* (tan("v"/2))/(1/2)` = x + c
∴ `square` = x + c
