A vector field $\vec{p}$ and a scalar field $r$ are given by:

$\vec{p} = (2x^2 - 3xy + z^2) \hat{i} + (2y^2 - 3yz + x^2) \hat{j} + (2z^2 - 3xz + x^2) \hat{k}$

$r = 6x^2 + 4y^2 - z^2 - 9xyz - 2xy + 3xz - yz$

Consider the statements P and Q:

P: Curl of the gradient of the scalar field $r$ is a null vector.

Q: Divergence of curl of the vector field $\vec{p}$ is zero.

Which one of the following options is CORRECT?

A

Both P and Q are FALSE

A 2 m × 2 m tank of 3 m height has inflow, outflow and stirring mechanisms. Initially, the tank was half-filled with fresh water. At $ t = 0 $, an inflow of a salt solution of concentration 5 g/ $ m^3 $ at the rate of 2 litre/s and an outflow of the well stirred mixture at the rate of 1 litre/s are initiated. This process can be modelled using the following differential equation:

$$ \frac{dm}{dt} + \frac{m}{6000 + t} = 0.01 $$

where $ m $ is the mass (grams) of the salt at time $ t $ (seconds). The mass of the salt (in grams) in the tank at 75% of its capacity is ______________ (rounded off to 2 decimal places).
