    1-051-OneTankSaltModel-ModelingScenario
    A large tank initially contains 60 pounds of salt dissolved into 90 gallons of water. Salt water flows in at a rate of 4 gallons per minute, with a salt density of 2 pounds per gallon. The incoming water is mixed in with the contents of the tank...

    1-052-SaltWaterTanks-ModelingScenario
    We offer three mixing problems, of increasing order of difficulty, in which salt is coming into a tank of water and upon instantaneous mixing is leaving the tank.

    7-040-TankInterruptMixing-ModelingScenario
    We present a first order differential equation model for the interrupted mixing of a tank with salt water. We offer two solution strategies (1) two step approach and (2) Laplace Transforms.

    1-025-MixingItUp-ModelingScenario
    Students build three different models for levels of salt in a tank of water and at each stage the level of complexity increases with attention to nuances necessary for success.

    6-030-SaltAndTorricelli-ModelingScenario
    We build on a model for the height of a falling column of water with a small hole in the container at the bottom of the column of water. We use data from one video of a falling column of water.

    1-034-T-FishMixing-ModelingScenario
    This activity gives students a chance to build the underlying differential equation and/or difference equation for a mixing problem using tangible objects (fish) and a student-designed restocking and fishing plan in a lake.

    1-138-InnerEarDrugDelivery-ModelingScenario
    Students examine local drug delivery to the cochlea. The delivery system is modeled as a liquid mixing problem. Students formulate the differential equation, and solve the equation using separation of variables or integrating factor.
