A lake has an initial pollutant concentration of 500 mg/L. The mass transfer coefficient for evaporation is 0.1 m/s. Calculate the concentration after 10 minutes of evaporation assuming no additional pollutants enter.
💡 Hint: Apply exponential decay equations.
Evaluate the impact of varying wind speed on the mass transfer coefficients in a polluted lake environment.
💡 Hint: Think about how fans increase evaporation in a wet area.
