To convert parametric to Cartesian systems, you need to find a way to get rid of the t's.

In this case, the t's are inside trigonometric functions, so we're going to use a very famous trig identity you should memorize:

${sin(t)}^{2} + {cos(t)}^{2} = 1$

If we plug sin(t) and cos(t) into that equation only x and y variables will be left!

BUT there's one thing. The given cos(t + pi/6) has nasty extra stuff in it. However, part a gives you a tip on how to relate x and y to a nice clean cos(t)

So if we do a little rearranging:

$\sin(t) = \frac{y}{2} \\ \cos(t) = \frac{x + y}{2 \sqrt{3} }$

Now we can plug these into the famous trig identity!

${( \frac{y}{2}) }^{2} + {( \frac{x + y}{2 \sqrt{3} } )}^{2} = 1$

Do a little bit of adjustments to get that final form asked for, and you'll be able to find those integers of a and b. ;)

Consider the vector field. f(x, y, z) = xy2z2i x2yz2j x2y2zk (a) find the curl of the vector field?

Marat540 [252]

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).
