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).

Svetradugi [14.3K]

ANSWER

Velocity of the mass reaches zero

EXPLANATION

We want to identify what hapens to a mass attached toa a spring at maximum displacement.

When a mass attached to a spring is at its maximum position of displacement, the direction of the mass begins to change. This implies that the velocity of the mass will reach zero.

Hence, at maximum displacement, the velocity of the mass reaches zero.
