Euler's Method

Please help me answer this problen. A storage tank that is 2m in diameter is being filled at the rate of 2m^3/min. When the height of the liquid is 2m in the tank, the bottom of the tank springs a leak. The rate of leaking is proportional to the head of fluid so that it is leaking at the rate of 0.4m^3/min, where h is in meters. Plot the height of the liquid as a function of time. What is the steady state height of the fluid in the tank.

This sounds like a homework assignment. If it is, show us the code you've written to try to solve the problem and ask a specific question about where you're having difficulty and we may be able to provide some guidance.

If you aren't sure where to start because you're not familiar with how to write MATLAB code, I suggest you start with the free MATLAB Onramp tutorial to quickly learn the essentials of MATLAB.

If you aren't sure where to start because you're not familiar with the mathematics you'll need to solve the problem, I recommend asking your professor and/or teaching assistant for help.

MATLAB won't be able to help you in deriving the differential equation for h(t)...
