Answer to Problem 1RE
The vector field is a function in a plane that associates each point in the plane,
Explanation of Solution
The vector field is a function in a plane that associates each point in the plane,
Similarly, a vector field in the three dimensional space is a function which is associated with each point
The vector field can be expressed as,
Consider the function,
