Question

Section 11.6: Problem 20 Previous Problem List Next (1 point) Use the contour diagram for f(x, y) shown below to estimate the directional derivative of f in the direction v at the point P. (2, 2) in the direction j, the directional derivative is (a) At the point P approximately (b) At the point P approximately (3, 2) in the direction -i, the directional derivative is (i j)/2, the directional derivative (c) At the point P (4,1) in the direction v- is approximately (1, 0) in the direction -i, the directional derivative is (d) At the point P approximately Note: You can earn partial credit on this problem.

Explanation / Answer

(a)

gradiant,f(2,2)= ((6-4)/(3-2))i +((6-4)/(3-2))j

f(2,2)= 2i +2j

v =0i+1j

|v|=1

directional derivative =f. v/|v|

directional derivative =(2i +2j)(0i +1j)

directional derivative =(2*0)+(2*1)

directional derivative =2

----------------------------------

(b)

gradiant,f(3,2)= ((8-6)/(4-3))i +((8-6)/(2.6-2))j

f(3,2)= 2i +(10/3)j

v =-1i+0j

|v|=1

directional derivative =f. v/|v|

directional derivative =(2i +(10/3)j)(-1i +0j)

directional derivative =(2*-1)+((10/3)*0)

directional derivative =-2

----------------------------------

(c)

gradiant,f(4,1)= ((4-2)/(4-2))i +((4-2)/(1-0.5))j

f(4,1)= 1i +4j

v =(1i+1j)/2

|v|=1

directional derivative =f. v/|v|

directional derivative =(1i +4j)(1i+1j)/2

directional derivative =((1*1)+(4*1))/2

directional derivative =5/2

----------------------------------

(d)

gradiant,f(1,0)= 0i +((2-0)/(2-0))j

f(3,2)= 0i +1j

v =-1i+0j

|v|=1

directional derivative =f. v/|v|

directional derivative =(0i +1j)(-1i +0j)

directional derivative =(0*-1)+(1*0)

directional derivative =0+0

directional derivative =0
