    These problems have been taken from Appendix A of the textbook (BSL).

    1. A vector filed v(x, y, z) is said to be irrotational if, v = 0. Which of the following fieldsare irrotational? (a) vx = by, vy = 0, vz = 0; (b) vx = by, vy = bx, vz = 0

    2. Evaluate .v, v, and .vv for the two velocity fields in Q1.

    3. If r is the position vector with components (x1, x2, x3) and magnitude r, verify that (a)(1r ) =

    rr3

    ; (b) (a.r) = a.

    4. If r is the instantaneous position vector for a particle, show that the velocity and accelerationof the particle in cylindrical coordinates are given by (use A.7-2, p829):

    v =dr

    dt= er

    dr

    dt+ er

    a = er

    5. Use A.7-2, p829 to write in cylindrical coordinates, (a) v + (v)T , (b) v.[v], i.e., the component of the expression.
