Question
The rate of growth of the population of a city at any time t is proportional to the size of the population. For a certain city, it is found that the constant of proportionality is 0.04. Find the population of the city after 25 years, if the initial population is 10,000. [Take e = 2.7182]

Solution
Let P be the population of the city at time t.
Then the rate of growth of population is `"dP"/"dt"` which is proportional to P.
∴ `"dP"/"dt" prop "P"`
∴ `"dP"/"dt"` = kP, where k = 0.04
∴ `"dP"/"dt" = (0.04)"P"`
∴ `1/"P" "dP" = (0.04) "dt"`
On integrating, we get
`int 1/"P" "dP" = (0.04) int "dt" + "c"`
∴ log P = (0.04)t +c
Initially, i.e., when t = 0, P = 10000
∴ log 10000 = (0.04) × 0 + c
∴ c = log 10000
∴ log P = (0.04) t + log 10000
∴ log P - log 10000 = (0.04) t
∴ log `("P"/10000) = (0.04) "t"`
When t = 25, then
log `("P"/10000) = (0.04) xx 25 = 1`
∴ log `("P"/10000)` = log e ....[∵ log e = 1]
∴ `"P"/10000 = "e" = 2.7182`
∴ P = 2.7182 × 10000 = 27182
∴ the population of the city after 25 years will be 27,182.

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
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

The rate of disintegration of a radioactive element at time t is proportional to its mass at that time. The original mass of 800 gm will disintegrate into its mass of 400 gm after 5 days. Find the mass remaining after 30 days.
Solution: If x is the amount of material present at time t then `dx/dt = square`, where k is constant of proportionality.
`int dx/x = square + c`
∴ logx = `square`
x = `square` = `square`.ec
∴ x = `square`.a where a = ec
At t = 0, x = 800
∴ a = `square`
At t = 5, x = 400
∴ e–5k = `square`
Now when t = 30
x = `square` × `square` = 800 × (e–5k)6 = 800 × `square` = `square`.
The mass remaining after 30 days will be `square` mg.
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?
