Use the definition of the gradient (in two or three dimensions), assume that \(f\) and \(g\) are differentiable functions on \(\mathbb{R}^{2}\) or \(\mathbb{R}^{3},\) and let \(c\) be a constant. Prove the following gradient rules. a. Constants Rule: \(\nabla(c f)=c \nabla f\) b. Sum Rule: \(\nabla(f+g)=\nabla f+\nabla g\) c. Product Rule: \(\nabla(f g)=(\nabla f) g+f \nabla g\) d. Quotient Rule: \(\nabla\left(\frac{f}{g}\right)=\frac{g \nabla f-f \nabla g}{g^{2}}\) e. Chain Rule: \(\nabla(f \circ g)=f^{\prime}(g) \nabla g,\) where \(f\) is a function of one variable
Consider the curve \(\mathbf{r}(t)=\langle\cos t, \sin t, c \sin t\rangle,\) for \(0 \leq t \leq 2 \pi,\) where \(c\) is a real number. a. What is the equation of the plane \(P\) in which the curve lies? b. What is the angle between \(P\) and the \(x y\) -plane? c. Prove that the curve is an ellipse in \(P\).
Maximizing utility functions Find the values of \(\ell\) and \(g\) with \(\ell \geq 0\) and \(g \geq 0\) that maximize the following utility functions subject to the given constraints. Give the value of the utility function at the optimal point. $$U=f(\ell, g)=8 \ell^{4 / 5} g^{1 / 5} \text { subject to } 10 \ell+8 g=40$$
Let \(E\) be the ellipsoid \(x^{2} / 9+y^{2} / 4+z^{2}=1, P\) be the plane \(z=A x+B y,\) and \(C\) be the intersection of \(E\) and \(P\). a. Is \(C\) an ellipse for all values of \(A\) and \(B\) ? Explain. b. Sketch and interpret the situation in which \(A=0\) and \(B \neq 0\). c. Find an equation of the projection of \(C\) on the \(x y\) -plane. d. Assume \(A=\frac{1}{6}\) and \(B=\frac{1}{2} .\) Find a parametric description of \(C\) as a curve in \(\mathbb{R}^{3}\). (Hint: Assume \(C\) is described by \(\langle a \cos t+b \sin t, c \cos t+d \sin t, e \cos t+f \sin t\rangle\) and find \(a, b, c, d, e, \text { and } f .)\)
Ideal Gas Law Many gases can be modeled by the Ideal Gas Law, \(P V=n R T,\) which relates the temperature \((T,\) measured in Kelvin (K)), pressure ( \(P\), measured in Pascals (Pa)), and volume ( \(V\), measured in \(\mathrm{m}^{3}\) ) of a gas. Assume that the quantity of gas in question is \(n=1\) mole (mol). The gas constant has a value of \(R=8.3 \mathrm{m}^{3} \cdot \mathrm{Pa} / \mathrm{mol} \cdot \mathrm{K}.\) a. Consider \(T\) to be the dependent variable and plot several level curves (called isotherms) of the temperature surface in the region \(0 \leq P \leq 100,000\) and \(0 \leq V \leq 0.5.\) b. Consider \(P\) to be the dependent variable and plot several level curves (called isobars) of the pressure surface in the region \(0 \leq T \leq 900\) and \(0< V \leq 0.5.\) c. Consider \(V\) to be the dependent variable and plot several level curves of the volume surface in the region \(0 \leq T \leq 900\) and \(0 < P \leq 100,000.\)
