Can you help me solve this question please? Thank you Salt lake has no outlet i.e., the inlet flow is completely balanced by evaporation. Lake has a volume of 2.5 x 1011 m3 and the concentration of salt in the lake is 52 g/L. Inlet stream to the lake has a concentration of 0.18 g/L and is flowing at a rate of 3.7 x 109 m3/yr. Lake initially had a concentration of 0.18 g/L and the outflow abruptly stopped, how long ago did that occur?
7. (Mass balance, A river with 400 mg/L of salts (a conservative substance) and an upstream flow of 25.0 m³/s receives an agricultural discharge of 5.0 m³/s carrying 2,000 mg/L of salts. The salts quickly become uniformly distributed in the river. A municipality just downstream withdraws water and mixes it with enough pure water (no salt) from another source to deliver water having no more than 500 mg/L salts to its customers. What should be the flowrate mixture ratio F of pure water to river water?

10.3. For some reason, a lined hazardous-waste landfill was located on top of a confined aquifer. Situated approximately 500 m away is a community water supply well which is pumped at a rate of 104 m³/d. If an earthquake occurs which splits open the liner and pollutes the aquifer, how much time is available to shut down the well and avoid withdrawing contaminated water? Assume the follow- ing aquifer characteristics are applicable: hydraulic conductivity = 50 m/d, porosity = 0.2, aquifer thickness = 5 m, and aquifer width = 50 m. (Courtesy of Jim Hunt.)
