The key idea is that, if a vector field is conservative, then it has curl 0. Equivalently, if the curl is not 0, then the field is not conservative. But if we find that the curl is 0, that on its own doesn't mean the field is conservative.

$\mathrm{curl}\vec F=\dfrac{\partial(5x+10y)}{\partial x}-\dfrac{\partial(-6x+5y)}{\partial y}=5-5=0$

We want to find $f$ such that $\nabla f=\vec F$ . This means

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}=-6x+5y\implies f(x,y)=-3x^2+5xy+g(y)$

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=5x+10y=5x+\dfrac{\mathrm dg}{\mathrm dy}\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dg}{\mathrm dy}=10y\implies g(y)=5y^2+C$

$\implies\boxed{f(x,y)=-3x^2+5xy+5y^2+C}$

so $\vec F$ is conservative.

$\mathrm{curl}\vec F=\left(\dfrac{\partial(-2y)}{\partial z}-\dfrac{\partial(1)}{\partial y}\right)\vec\imath+\left(\dfrac{\partial(-3x)}{\partial z}-\dfrac{\partial(1)}{\partial z}\right)\vec\jmath+\left(\dfrac{\partial(-2y)}{\partial x}-\dfrac{\partial(-3x)}{\partial y}\right)\vec k=\vec0$

Then

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}=-3x\implies f(x,y,z)=-\dfrac32x^2+g(y,z)$

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=-2y=\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial y}\implies g(y,z)=-y^2+h(y)$

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial z}=1=\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dz}\implies h(z)=z+C$

$\implies\boxed{f(x,y,z)=-\dfrac32x^2-y^2+z+C}$

so $\vec F$ is conservative.

$\mathrm{curl}\vec F=\dfrac{\partial(10y-3x\cos y)}{\partial x}-\dfrac{\partial(-\sin y)}{\partial y}=-3\cos y+\cos y=-2\cos y\neq0$

so $\vec F$ is not conservative.

$\mathrm{curl}\vec F=\left(\dfrac{\partial(5y^2)}{\partial z}-\dfrac{\partial(5z^2)}{\partial y}\right)\vec\imath+\left(\dfrac{\partial(-3x^2)}{\partial z}-\dfrac{\partial(5z^2)}{\partial x}\right)\vec\jmath+\left(\dfrac{\partial(5y^2)}{\partial x}-\dfrac{\partial(-3x^2)}{\partial y}\right)\vec k=\vec0$

Then

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}=-3x^2\implies f(x,y,z)=-x^3+g(y,z)$

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=5y^2=\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial y}\implies g(y,z)=\dfrac53y^3+h(z)$

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial z}=5z^2=\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dz}\implies h(z)=\dfrac53z^3+C$

$\implies\boxed{f(x,y,z)=-x^3+\dfrac53y^3+\dfrac53z^3+C}$

so $\vec F$ is conservative.

Find a unit vector that has the same direction as the vector a and the opposite direction of the vector

nasty-shy [4]

The unit vector is given by the following formula:
a '= (a) / (lal)
Where,
a: vector a
lal: Vector module a
We are looking for the module:
lal = root ((- 15) ^ 2 + (8) ^ 2)
lal = 17
Same direction:
a = -15i + 8j
The unit vector is:
a '= (1/17) * (- 15i + 8j)
Opposite direction:
a = 15i - 8j
The unit vector is:
a '= (1/17) * (15i - 8j)
Answer:
a unit vector that has the same direction as the vector a is:
a '= (1/17) * (- 15i + 8j)
a unit vector that has the opposite direction of the vector a is:
a '= (1/17) * (15i - 8j)
