Let for and . Which statement is true?
Using polar coordinates, . Find .
Find the maximum value of on the circle .
The vortex field has zero curl on , yet its circulation around the unit circle is . Which hypothesis of the theorem “a field with zero curl on a domain is conservative on ” fails?
For , which statements are true? (Select all that apply.)
Let . The outward flux of through the sphere of radius centred at the origin is . Find .
In Lean, xyQuot p = p.1 * p.2 / (p.1 ^ 2 + p.2 ^ 2). Which statement formalises “both partial derivatives exist at the origin, but the function is not differentiable there”?
Write circulation(P, Q, r, n) that approximates counterclockwise around the circle of radius r centred at the origin, using the parametrisation and the rectangle (left-point) rule with n equal steps in . Test it on the rotation field (circulation ), a gradient field (circulation ) and the vortex (circulation ).
