Answer

a) $7.09306$ b) $0.75992$ $kg$

Work Step by Step

a) $\frac{dm}{dt}$ = $CM^{\frac{3}{4}}$ $6$ = $C(100)^{\frac{3}{4}}$ $C$ = $\frac{3\sqrt {10}}{50}$ $\frac{dm}{dt}$ = $\frac{3\sqrt {10}}{50}M^{\frac{3}{4}}$ $\frac{dm}{dt}|_{M=125}$ = $\frac{3\sqrt {10}}{50}(125)^{\frac{3}{4}}$ = $7.09306$ b) $CM^{\frac{3}{4}}$ = $2C0.5^{\frac{3}{4}}$ $M^{\frac{3}{4}}$ = $2\times0.5^{\frac{3}{4}}$ $M$ = $(2\times0.5^{\frac{3}{4}})^{\frac{4}{3}}$ = $1.25992$ The plant must acquire the difference = $1.25992-0.5$ = $0.75992$ $kg$
