The velocity components of an incompressible, two-dimensional field are given bythe following equations:  u(x,y) =y^2 -x (1+x) v(x,y) = y(2x+1) Show that the flow field is (a) irrotational and (b) satisfies conservation of mass.
1. The components of velocity in a flow field are given byu=x2+y2+z2v=xy+yz+z2w=-3xz- 0.5z2+4a) Determine the volumetric dilatation rate and interpret the result.b) Determine an expression for the rotation vector. Is this an irrotational flow field?
The velocity components in a two-dimensional flow are   u = y^3 /3 + 2x-x²y and  v= xy²-2y-x^3 /3.   Show that it is an irrotational flow.
