Question
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

Initially, i.e., when t = 0, let p = 100000

∴ c = log 100000
∴ 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 = `1/25 log 2`
∴ equation (i) becomes, `log("p"/100000)` = `"t"/25 log 2`
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 = `25 (2 log 2)/(log 2)`
∴ t = 50 years

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
The population of city doubles in 80 years, in how many years will it be triple when the rate of increase is proportional to the number of inhabitants. `("Given" log3/log2 = 1.5894)`
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 = N
∴ log N = k × 0 + c
∴ c = `square`
When t = 80, p = 2N
∴ log 2N = 80k + log N
∴ log 2N – log N = 80k
∴ `log ((2"N")/"N")` = 80k
∴ log (2) = 80k
∴ k = `square`
∴ p = 3N, then t = ?
∴ log p = `log2/80 "t" + log "N"`
∴ log 3N – log N = `square`
∴ t = `square` = `square` years
