A steady, incompressible, two-dimensional velocity field is given by the following components in the $x y$ plane: $$ v_{x}=2+1.5 x+0.75 y, \quad v_{y}=1+3 x+1 y $$ What is the acceleration of the fluid at $(x, y)=(2,4) ?$
The velocity in a certain flow field is given by the equation $$\mathbf{v}=x \hat{\mathbf{i}}+x^{2} z \hat{\mathbf{j}}+y z \hat{\mathbf{k}}$$ Determine the expressions for the three rectangular components of acceleration.
Consider the velocity field $\vec{V}=A x /\left(x^{2}+y^{2}\right) \hat{i}+A y /$ $\left(x^{2}+y^{2}\right) \hat{j}$ in the $x y$ plane, where $A=10 \mathrm{m}^{2} / \mathrm{s},$ and $x$ and $y$ are measured in meters. Is this an incompressible flow field? Derive an expression for the fluid acceleration. Evaluate the velocity and acceleration along the $x$ axis, the $y$ axis, and along a line defined by $y=x .$ What can you conclude about this flow field?
