Answer: The points at which the given surface has horizontal tangent planes in the given region are: [From partial derivative with respect to x] (-π, -π), (-π, 0), (-π, π), (-π/2, -π), (-π/2, 0), (-π/2, π), (0, -π), (0, 0), (0, π), (π/2, -π), (π/2, 0), (π/2, π), (π, -π), (π, 0), (π, π) [From partial derivative with respect to y] (-3π/4, -π/2), (-3π/4, π/2), (-π/4, -π/2), (-π/4, π/2), (π/4, -π/2), (π/4, π/2), (3π/4, -π/2), (3π/4, π/2)

Step by step solution

01

Find the partial derivatives

To find the points with horizontal tangent planes, we need to find the partial derivatives of z with respect to x and y: $$\frac{\partial{z}}{\partial{x}} = -2 \sin{(2x)} \sin{(y)}$$ $$\frac{\partial{z}}{\partial{y}} = \cos{(2x)} \cos{(y)}$$
02

Make partial derivatives equal to zero

We now need to solve the following equations to find points with horizontal tangent planes: $$-2 \sin{(2x)} \sin{(y)} = 0$$ $$\cos{(2x)} \cos{(y)} = 0$$
03

Solve the equations for x and y

Analyzing the equations, we have two cases for each equation: For the first equation: 1. \(\sin{(2x)} = 0\) 2. \(\sin{(y)} = 0\) For the second equation: 1. \(\cos{(2x)} = 0\) 2. \(\cos{(y)} = 0\) We now solve each case: 1. For \(\sin{(2x)} = 0\), \(2x = k\pi\), where k is an integer. So, \(x=\frac{k\pi}{2}\). 2. For \(\sin{(y)} = 0\), \(y = l\pi\), where l is an integer. 3. For \(\cos{(2x)} = 0\), \(2x = (2m+1)\frac{\pi}{2}\), where m is an integer. So, \(x = (2m+1)\frac{\pi}{4}\). 4. For \(\cos{(y)} = 0\), \(y = (2n+1)\frac{\pi}{2}\), where n is an integer.
04

Apply the given region

Using above solutions, we apply the given region for x and y: \(-\pi \leq x \leq \pi,-\pi \leq y \leq \pi\) 1. For x, when k = -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, we have: \(x = -\pi, -\frac{\pi}{2}, 0, \frac{\pi}{2}, \pi\) 2. For y, when l = -1, 0, 1, we have: \(y = -\pi, 0, \pi\) 3. For x, when m = -1, 0, 1, we have: \(x = -\frac{3\pi}{4}, -\frac{\pi}{4}, \frac{\pi}{4}, \frac{3\pi}{4}\) 4. For y, when n = -1, 0, 1, we have: \(y = -\frac{3\pi}{2}, -\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{3\pi}{2}\)
05

Combine the possible x and y values

Combine the possible x and y values to find points (x, y) with horizontal tangent planes on the given surface: From partial derivative with respect to x: \((x, y) = \left(-\pi, -\pi\right), \left(-\pi, 0\right), \left(-\pi, \pi\right), \left(-\frac{\pi}{2}, -\pi\right), \left(-\frac{\pi}{2}, 0\right), \left(-\frac{\pi}{2}, \pi\right),\) \(\left(0, -\pi\right), \left(0, 0\right), \left(0, \pi\right), \left(\frac{\pi}{2}, -\pi\right), \left(\frac{\pi}{2}, 0\right), \left(\frac{\pi}{2}, \pi\right),\) \(\left(\pi, -\pi\right), \left(\pi, 0\right), \left(\pi, \pi\right)\) From partial derivative with respect to y: \((x, y) = \left(-\frac{3\pi}{4}, -\frac{3\pi}{2}\right), \left(-\frac{3\pi}{4}, -\frac{\pi}{2}\right),\) \(\left(-\frac{3\pi}{4}, \frac{\pi}{2}\right), \left(-\frac{3\pi}{4}, \frac{3\pi}{2}\right),\) \(\left(-\frac{\pi}{4}, -\frac{3\pi}{2}\right), \left(-\frac{\pi}{4}, -\frac{\pi}{2}\right),\) \(\left(-\frac{\pi}{4}, \frac{\pi}{2}\right), \left(-\frac{\pi}{4}, \frac{3\pi}{2}\right),\) \(\left(\frac{\pi}{4}, -\frac{3\pi}{2}\right), \left(\frac{\pi}{4}, -\frac{\pi}{2}\right),\) \(\left(\frac{\pi}{4}, \frac{\pi}{2}\right), \left(\frac{\pi}{4}, \frac{3\pi}{2}\right),\) \(\left(\frac{3\pi}{4}, -\frac{3\pi}{2}\right), \left(\frac{3\pi}{4}, -\frac{\pi}{2}\right),\) \(\left(\frac{3\pi}{4}, \frac{\pi}{2}\right), \left(\frac{3\pi}{4}, \frac{3\pi}{2}\right)\) However, some of the y values in this case exceed the given region of \(-\pi \leq y \leq \pi\). After removing such points, we have: \((x, y) = \left(-\frac{3\pi}{4}, -\frac{\pi}{2}\right), \left(-\frac{3\pi}{4}, \frac{\pi}{2}\right),\) \(\left(-\frac{\pi}{4}, -\frac{\pi}{2}\right), \left(-\frac{\pi}{4}, \frac{\pi}{2}\right),\) \(\left(\frac{\pi}{4}, -\frac{\pi}{2}\right), \left(\frac{\pi}{4}, \frac{\pi}{2}\right),\) \(\left(\frac{3\pi}{4}, -\frac{\pi}{2}\right), \left(\frac{3\pi}{4}, \frac{\pi}{2}\right)\) These are the points at which the given surfaces have horizontal tangent planes in the given region.

Potential functions arise frequently in physics and engineering. A potential function has the property that \(a\) field of interest (for example, an electric field, a gravitational field, or a velocity field is the gradient of the potential (or sometimes the negative of the gradient of the potential). (Potential functions are considered in depth in Chapter 14 .) In two dimensions, the motion of an ideal fluid (an incompressible and irrotational fluid) is governed by a velocity potential \(\varphi .\) The velocity components of the fluid, \(u\) in the \(x\) -direction and \(v\) in the \(y\) -direction, are given by \(\langle u, v\rangle=\nabla \varphi .\) Find the velocity components associated with the velocity potential \(\varphi(x, y)=\sin \pi x \sin 2 \pi y\).

Show that the plane \(a x+b y+c z=d\) and the line \(\mathbf{r}(t)=\mathbf{r}_{0}+\mathbf{v} t,\) not in the plane, have no points of intersection if and only if \(\mathbf{v} \cdot\langle a, b, c\rangle=0 .\) Give a geometric explanation of this result.

Use the gradient rules of Exercise 81 to find the gradient of the following functions. $$f(x, y)=x y \cos x y$$

In its many guises, the least squares approximation arises in numerous areas of mathematics and statistics. Suppose you collect data for two variables (for example, height and shoe size) in the form of pairs \(\left(x_{1}, y_{1}\right),\left(x_{2}, y_{2}\right), \ldots,\left(x_{n}, y_{n}\right)\) The data may be plotted as a scatterplot in the \(x y\) -plane, as shown in the figure. The technique known as linear regression asks the question: What is the equation of the line that "best fits" the data? The least squares criterion for best fit requires that the sum of the squares of the vertical distances between the line and the data points is a minimum. Let the equation of the best-fit line be \(y=m x+b,\) where the slope \(m\) and the \(y\) -intercept \(b\) must be determined using the least squares condition. First assume that there are three data points \((1,2),(3,5),\) and \((4,6) .\) Show that the function of \(m\) and \(b\) that gives the sum of the squares of the vertical distances between the line and the three data points is $$ \begin{aligned} E(m, b)=&((m+b)-2)^{2}+((3 m+b)-5)^{2} \\ &+((4 m+b)-6)^{2} \end{aligned}. $$ Find the critical points of \(E\) and find the values of \(m\) and \(b\) that minimize \(E\). Graph the three data points and the best-fit line.

Use the definition of differentiability to prove that the following functions are differentiable at \((0,0) .\) You must produce functions \(\varepsilon_{1}\) and \(\varepsilon_{2}\) with the required properties. $$f(x, y)=x y$$
