In a steady, two-dimensional flow field in the xyplane, the x-component of velocity is u = ax + by + cx2 where a, b, and c are constants with appropriate dimensions. Generate a general expression for velocity component ? such that the flow field is incompressible.

The $y$ component of velocity in a steady incompressible flow field in the $x y$ plane is \[v=\frac{2 x y}{\left(x^{2}+y^{2}\right)^{2}}\] Show that the simplest expression for the $x$ component of velocity is \[u=\frac{1}{\left(x^{2}+y^{2}\right)}-\frac{2 y^{2}}{\left(x^{2}+y^{2}\right)^{2}}\]
