Q: In Section 9.3 we looked at mixing problems in which

In Section 9.3 we looked at mixing problems in which the volume of fluid remained constant and saw that such problems give rise to separable differentiable equations. (See Example 6 in that section.)...

Q: An object with mass m is dropped from rest and we assume

An object with mass m is dropped from rest and we assume that the air resistance is proportional to the speed of the object. If s(t) is the distance dropped after t seconds, then the speed is v = s(t)...

Q: If we ignore air resistance, we can conclude that heavier objects

If we ignore air resistance, we can conclude that heavier objects fall no faster than lighter objects. But if we take air resistance into account, our conclusion changes. Use the expression for the ve...
