Question

Please ans a and b 

A river traveling at a velocity of 10 km/day has a dissolved-oxygen content of 5
mg/L and an ultimate CBOD of 25 mg/L at distance x = 0 km, that is,
immediately downstream of a waste discharge. The waste has a CBOD decay
coefficient, kd, of 0.2/day. The stream has a reaeration rate coefficient, kr, of
0.4/day and a saturated dissolved-oxygen concentration of 9 mg/L. (a) What is
the initial dissolved-oxygen deficit? (b) What is the location of the critical point,
in time and distance? (c) What is the dissolved-oxygen deficit at the critical
point? (d) What is the dissolved-oxygen concentration at the critical point?
