Question

At time t = 1, a particle is located at position (x, y) = (5, 2). If it moves in the velocity field F(x, y) = xy − 1, y2 − 11 find its approximate location at time t = 1.02.

Answer 1

Answer:

Its approx location is (5.18,1.9)

Explanation:

Using F( 5,2) = ( xy-1, y²-11)

= ( 5*2-¹, 2²-11)

= (9,-5)

= so at point t=1.02

(5,2)+(1.02-1)*(9,-5)

(5,2)+( 0.02)*(9,-5)

(5+0.18, 2-0.1)

= ( 5.18, 1.9)
