Vector Calculus - 5 - Question 1

 and S is that part of the surface of the sphere x2 + y2 + z2 = 1 which lies in the first octant, then the value of  is

Detailed Solution for Vector Calculus - 5 - Question 1


A vector normal to the surface S is given by



[Since, x2 + y2 + z2 = 1 on S]
Now, we have
 ...(i) 
where R is the projection of S on the XY-plane.
The region R is bounded by X-axis, Y-axis and x2 +y2 = 1, z = 0.

So, on putting these values in Eq. (i), we get 


= 3/8

Vector Calculus - 5 - Question 2

Detailed Solution for Vector Calculus - 5 - Question 2

Correct Answer :- c

Explanation : u = yi + xyj

v = x2i + xy2j

u * v = [(i,j,k) (y,xy,0) (x2, xy2,0)]

curl (u * v) = Δ * (u * v)

= [(i,j,k) (d/dx,d/dy.d/dz) (0,0,xy3-x3y)]

= i d/dx(xy3-x3y) +j(-d/dx(xy3-x3y)

= i(3xy2 - x3) +j(3x2y - y3)

curl (u * v) = i(3xy2 - x3) +j(y3 - 3x2y)

Vector Calculus - 5 - Question 5

The line integral of  where, C is the unit circle around the origin traversed once in the counter-clockwise direction, is 

Detailed Solution for Vector Calculus - 5 - Question 5

   ....(i)
C being unit circle around the, origin traversed once in the counter-clockwise direction. We know from Green’s theorem,

Comparing Eq. (i) with LHS of Eq. (ii), we have



So, 

Vector Calculus - 5 - Question 6

Find the value of  has usual meaning.

Detailed Solution for Vector Calculus - 5 - Question 6

We have, 



Similarly,

Vector Calculus - 5 - Question 7

The directional derivative of f(x, y, z) = 2x2 + 3y2 + z2 at the point P(2, 1, 3) in the direction of the vector 

Detailed Solution for Vector Calculus - 5 - Question 7




So, directional derivative of f indirection of vector   is nothing but the component of grad f in the direction of vector 

Vector Calculus - 5 - Question 8

A scalar field is given by f = x2/3 + y2/3, where x and y are the Cartesian coordinates. The derivative of f along the line y = x directed away from the origin, at the point (8, 8) is

Detailed Solution for Vector Calculus - 5 - Question 8



 (Putting y = x)

Derivative of f in the direction of 

Derivative of f in the direction of the point (8 , 8)

Vector Calculus - 5 - Question 9

  then the value of curl  will be

Detailed Solution for Vector Calculus - 5 - Question 9

Vector Calculus - 5 - Question 10

Velocity vector of a flow field is given as   The velocity vector at (1, 1, 1) is

Detailed Solution for Vector Calculus - 5 - Question 10

We have velocity vector 
So, the vorticity vector = Curl (Velocity vector

So, at (1, 1, 1) the vorticity vector

Vector Calculus - 5 - Question 11

If  and C is the circle x2 + y2 = 1 traversed counter clockwise, then  is

Detailed Solution for Vector Calculus - 5 - Question 11

 Since 
or 
So, 


Since, the parametric equation of given circle a
x = cos θ,y = sin θ
or dx = - sin θ
dy - cos 0 d 0
So,

Vector Calculus - 5 - Question 12

The value of  where  =  and S is the surface of the sphere having centre at (3, -1, 2) and radius 3 is

Detailed Solution for Vector Calculus - 5 - Question 12

 If V be the volume enclosed by the surface S, then by Gauss’s divergence theorem


But V is the volume of a sphere of radius 3.
So, volume V  = 
Hence, 

Vector Calculus - 5 - Question 13

Equation of the line normal to function fix) = (x - 8)2/3 + 1 at P(0, 5) is

Since,f(x) = (x - 8)2/3 + 1
Or 
Slope of tangent at (0, 5) 
Or 
Slope of normal at (0, 5)
Or 
So, equation of normal at (0, 5) is 
y-5 = 3(x - 0)
Or y = 3x + 5

Consider the points P and Q in the XY-plane, with P = (1, 0) and Q = (0, 1). The line integral  along the sem icircle with the line segment PQ as its diameter

Detailed Solution for Vector Calculus - 5 - Question 15

 Since, f(x, y)= xy
Now, we have to show that ( x d x + y dy) is exact so the value of the integral is independent of path

or integral = f(Q) - f(P)
= [xy](0,1) - [xy](1,0) = 0
