Question
Find the population of city at any time t given that rate of increase of population is proportional to the population at that instant and that in a period of 40 years the population increased from 30000 to 40000.
Solution: Let p be the population at time t.
Then the rate of increase of p is `"dp"/"dt"` which is proportional to p.
∴ `"dp"/"dt" prop "p"`
∴ `"dp"/"dt"` = kp, where k is a constant.
∴ `"dp"/"p"` = k dt
On integrating, we get
`int "dp"/"p" = "k" int "dt"`
∴ log p = kt + c
Initially, i.e. when t = 0, let p = 30000
∴ log 30000 = k × 0 + c
∴ c = `square`
∴ log p = kt + log 30000
∴ log p - log 30000 = kt
∴ `log("p"/30000)` = kt .....(1)
when t = 40, p = 40000
∴ `log (40000/30000) = 40"k"`
∴ k = `square`
∴ equation (1) becomes, `log ("p"/30000)` = `square`
∴ `log ("p"/30000) = "t"/40 log (4/3)`
∴ p = `square`

when t = 40, p = 40000
∴ `log (40000/30000) = 40"k"`
∴ k = `bb(1/40 log 4/3)`
∴ equation (1) becomes, `log ("p"/30000)` = `bb("t"/40 log 4/3)`
∴ `log ("p"/30000) = "t"/40 log (4/3)`
∴ `log ("p"/30000) = log (4/3)^("t"/40)`
∴ `"p"/30000 = (4/3)^("t"/40)`
∴ p = 30000 `bb((4/3)^("t"/40))`

The rate of growth of population is proportional to the number present. If the population doubled in the last 25 years and present population is 1 lac., when will the city have population 4,00,000?
Solution: Let p be the population at time t.
Then the rate of increase of p is `"dp"/"dt"` which is proportional to p.
∴ `"dp"/"dt" ∝ "p"`
∴ `"dp"/"dt"` = kp, where k is a constant
∴ `"dp"/"p"` = kdt
On integrating, we get
`int "dp"/"p" = "k"int "dt"`
∴ log p = kt + c
Initially, i.e., when t = 0, let p = 100000
∴ log 100000 = k × 0 + c
∴ c = `square`
∴ log p = kt + log 100000
∴ log p – log 100000 = kt
∴ `log ("P"/100000)` = kt ......(i)
Since the number doubled in 25 years, i.e., when t = 25, p = 200000
∴ `log (200000/100000)` = 25k
∴ k = `square`
∴ equation (i) becomes, `log("p"/100000) = square`
When p = 400000, then find t.
∴ `log(400000/100000) = "t"/25 log 2`
∴ `log 4 = "t"/25 log 2`
∴ t = `25 (log 4)/(log 2)`
∴ t = `square` years
In a certain culture of bacteria, the rate of increase is proportional to the number present. If it is found that the number doubles in 4 hours, find the number of times the bacteria are increased in 12 hours.
Solution: Let x be the number of bacteria in the culture at time t.
Then the rate of increase of x is `"dx"/"dt"` which is proportional to x.
∴ `"dx"/"dt" ∝ "x"`
∴ `"dx"/"dt"` = kx, where k is a constant
∴ `square`
On integrating, we get
`int "dx"/"x" = "k" int "dt"`
∴ log x = kt + c
Initially, i.e. when t = 0, let x = x0
∴ log x0 = k × 0 + c
∴ c = `square`
∴ log x = kt + log x0
∴ log x - log x0 = kt
∴ `log ("x"/"x"_0)`= kt ......(1)
Since the number doubles in 4 hours, i.e. when t = 4,
x = 2x0
∴ `log ((2"x"_0)/"x"_0)` = 4k
∴ k = `square`
∴ equation (1) becomes, `log ("x"/"x"_0) = "t"/4` log 2
When t = 12, we get
`log ("x"/"x"_0) = 12/4` log 2 = 3 log 2
∴ `log ("x"/"x"_0)` = log 23
∴ `"x"/"x"_0 = 8`
∴ x = `square`
∴ number of bacteria will be 8 times the original number in 12 hours.
Bacteria increases at the rate proportional to the number of bacteria present. If the original number N doubles in 4 hours, find in how many hours the number of bacteria will be 16N.
Solution: Let x be the number of bacteria in the culture at time t.
Then the rate of increase of x is `("d"x)/"dt"` which is proportional to x.
∴ `("d"x)/"dt" ∝ x`
∴ `("d"x)/"dt"` = kx, where k is a constant
∴ `("d"x)/x` = kdt
On integrating, we get
`int ("d"x)/x = "k" int "dt"`
∴ log x = kt + c .....(1)
∴ x = aekt where a = ec
Initially, i.e.,when t = 0, let x = N
∴ N = aek(0)
∴ a = `square`
∴ a = N, x = Nekt ......(2)
When t = 4, x = 2N
From equation (2), 2N = Ne4k
∴ e4k = 2
∴ ek = `square`
Now we have to find out t, when x = 16N
From equation (2),
16N = Nekt
∴ 16 = ekt
∴ `"t"/4 = square` hours
Hence, number of bacteria will be 16N in `square` hours

In a certain culture of bacteria, the rate of increase is proportional to the number present. If it is found that the number doubles in 4 hours, find the number of times the bacteria are increased in 12 hours.
Solution:
Let N be the number of bacteria present at time ‘t’.
Since the rate of increase of N is proportional to N, the differential equation can be written as –
`(dN)/dt αN`
∴ `(dN)/dt` = KN, where K is constant of proportionality
∴ `(dN)/N` = k . dt
∴ `int 1/N dN = K int 1 . dt`
∴ log N = `square` + C ...(1)
When t = 0, N = N0 where N0 is initial number of bacteria.
∴ log N0 = K × 0 + C
∴ C = log N0
Also when t = 4, N = 2N0
∴ log (2 N0) = K . 4 + `square` ...[From (1)]
∴ `log((2N_0)/N_0)` = 4K,
∴ log 2 = 4K
∴ K = `square` ...(2)
Now N = ? when t = 12
From (1) and (2)
log N = `1/4 log 2 . (12) + log N_0`
log N – log N0 = 3 log 2
∴ `log(N_0/N_0)` = `square`
∴ N = 8 N0
∴ Bacteria are increased 8 times in 12 hours.
Bacteria increase at the rate proportional to the number of bacteria present. If the original number N doubles in 3 hours, find in how many hours the number of bacteria will be 4N?
