Using estimates of rainfall, evaporation, and water consumption, the town engineer developed the following model of the water volume in the reservoir as a function of time

V(t)=10^9+10^8(1-e^(-t/100))-rt

where V is the water volume in liters, t is time in days, and r is the town's consumption rate in liters per day. Write two user-defined functions. The first function should define the function V(t) for use with the fzero function. The second function should use fzero to compute how long it will take for the water volume to decrease to x percent of its initial value of 10^9L. The inputs to the second function should be x and r. Test your functions for the case where x=50 percent and r=10^7 L/day.

Aloaded platform of total mass 500 kg is supported by a dashpot and by a set of springs of effective stiffness 72 kn/m. it is observed that when the platform is depressed through a distance x = 12.5 cm below its equilibrium position and then released without any initial velocity; it reaches its equilibrium position in the shortest possible time without overshoot. find the position and velocity of the loaded platform 0.10 sec. after its release. if a further load of 400 kg is added to the platform, find, i) the frequency of damped vibrations, and i) the amplitude of vibration after 2 complete oscillations, given that the initial amplitude is 15 cm.
