Observe that the given vector field is a gradient field:

Let f(x,y,z)=\nabla g(x,y,z), so that

\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial x} = x y^2 z^2

\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial y} = x^2 y z^2

\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial z} = x^2 y^2 z

Integrating the first equation with respect to x, we get

g(x,y,z) = \dfrac12 x^2 y^2 z^2 + h(y,z)

Differentiating this with respect to y gives

\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial y} = x^2 y z^2 + \dfrac{\partial h}{\partial y} = x^2 y z^2 \\\\ \implies \dfrac{\partial h}{\partial y} = 0 \implies h(y,z) = i(z)

Now differentiating g with respect to z gives

\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial z} = x^2 y^2 z + \dfrac{di}{dz} = x^2 y^2 z \\\\ \implies \dfrac{di}{dz} = 0 \implies i(z) = C

Putting everything together, we find a scalar potential function whose gradient is f,

f(x,y,z) = \nabla \left(\dfrac12 x^2 y^2 z^2 + C\right)

It follows that the curl of f is 0 (i.e. the zero vector).

How high would a projectile go if it was launched from ground level with an initial speed of 26 m/s at an angle of 30 degrees ab
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Vy = 26 m/s sin 30 = 13 m/s      vertical speed

t = Vy / a = 13 m/s / 9.80 m/s^2 = 1.33 sec     time to reach Vy = 0

H = Vy t + 1/2 g t^2

H = 13 m/s * 1.33 sec - 1.33^2 * 9.8 / 2 m = 8.62 m

Someone please help me

Photosynthesis is the name given to the set of chemical reactions performed by plants to convert energy from the sun into chemical energy in the form of sugar. Specifically, plants use energy from sunlight to react carbon dioxide and water to produce sugar (glucose) and oxygen. Many reactions occur, but the overall chemical reaction for photosynthesis is:

6 CO2 + 6 H2O + light → C6H12O6 + 6 O2
So it would be C, I hope this helped! :)

What fraction of a piece of concrete will be submerged when it floats in mercury? the density of concrete is 2.3×103kg/m3 and de
chubhunter [2.5K]
<span>17% Any object that is floating will display the volume of fluid that matches the mass of the object that's floating. So if the object is 100% as dense as the fluid, it will just barely sink, if it's 50% as dense as the fluid, 50% will be submerged, etc. So let's see what percent of mercury's density is concrete. 2.3x10^3 / 13.6x10^3 = 0.169117647 = 16.9117647% Rounding to 2 significant figures gives 17%. So 17% of a piece of concrete will be submerged in mercury when it's floating in mercury.</span>

146,000,000 Express this amount in gigadollars
Tema [17]
I saw an example of yahoo saying that 114,000,000= 0.114, so ima take a guess and say that the way in expressing 146,000,000 in gigadollars would be 0.146. I'm sorry if I am wrong. But if it is right give me a thanks so I could know if I was right or not.

What happens to the sound waves when the source of the sound is moving toward you
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

The perceived frequency is higher than the actual emitted sound frequency. that means that the received sound waves are of shorter wavelength.

Explanation:

When the source of a sound wave is moving toward the observer, the perceived frequency of the wave changes in relation to the observer producing a change in pitch. The effect is called Doppler effect in honor of the physicist who formulated the physical explanation.

In the case of the sound source approaching the observer, the perceived frequency is higher than that actually emitted by the sound source.
