Question

Matlab Code

A mass balance for a pollutant in a well-mixed lake can be written as V dc dt =W-Qc-kV√c Given the parameter values V = 1x10^6 m^3, Q = 1x10^5 m^3/yr, W = 1x 10^6 g/yr, and k = 0.25 m^0.5/g^0.5/yr, use the newton raphson method(with by hand and matlab) to solve for the steady state concentration. Employ an initial guess of c = 4 g/m^3.
