Navier-Stokes equation The Navier-Stokes equation is the fundamental equation of fluid dynamics that models the flow in everything from bathtubs to oceans. In one of its many forms (incompressible, viscous flow), the equation is
In this notation, V = (u, v, w) is the three-dimensional velocity field, p is the (scalar) pressure, ρ is the constant density of the fluid, and μ is the constant viscosity. Write out the three component equations of this

She makes one complete revolution around the mountain in reaching the top, while her vertical rate of climb is constant.

Thus the vectors in a vector field are tangent to the flow lines. (a) Use a sketch of the vector field F(x, y) = xi − yj to draw some flow lines. From your sketches, can you guess the equations of the flow lines? (b) If parametric equations of a flow line are x = x(t), y = y(t), explain why these functions satisfy the differential equations dx/dt = x and dy/dt = −y.
