Question

4.6 WP Figure P4.6 shows a mixing tank initially containing 2000 lb of liquid water. The tank is fitted with two inlet pipes, one delivering hot water at a mass flow

rate of 0.8 lb/s and the other delivering cold water at a mass flow rate of 1.2 lb/s. Water exits through a single exit pipe at a mass flow rate of 2.5 lb/s. Determine the amount of water, in lb, in the tank after one hour.
