- Determine whether the vector field is conservative and, if so, find the general potential function. F=⟨cos(z),2y^3,−xsin(z)⟩arrow_forwardA point particle moves in space under the influence of a force derivablefrom a generalized potential of the formU(r, v) = V (r) + σ · L,where r is the radius vector from a fixed point, L is the angular momentumabout that point, and σ is the fixed vector in space. Find the components of the force on the particle in spherical polar coordinates, on the basis of the equation for the components of the generalized force Qj: Qj = −∂U/∂qj + d/dt (∂U/∂q˙j)arrow_forwardWhat does your result for the potential energy U(x=+L) become in the limit a→0?arrow_forward
- A charged particle moves along a straight line in a uniform electric field E with a speed v. If the motion and the electric field are both in the x direction, (a) show that the magnitude of the acceleration of the charge q is given by a=dvdt=qEm(1v2c2)3/2 (b) Discuss the significance of the dependence of the acceleration on the speed. (c) If the particle starts from rest at x = 0 at t = 0, find the speed of the particle and its position after a time t has elapsed. Comment on the limiting values of v and x as t .arrow_forwardPlease show correctly how the integral equation is formed. Thanks.arrow_forwardIf Force B on the x-z plane is equal to 300N and h = 4m and v = 10m, then what is the i and k components of Force B?arrow_forward
- Show that (x,t)=Asin(kxt) and (x,t)=Acos(kxt) do not obey Schrödinger's time-dependent equation.arrow_forwardShow that if A and B are matrices which don’t commute, then eA+B = eAeB, but if they do commute then the relation holds. Hint: Write out several terms of the infinite series for eA, eB, and eA+B and do the multiplications carefully assuming that A and B don’t commute. Then see what happens if they do commute.arrow_forwardHow do you do this question with integrals instead?arrow_forward
- Prove that the relation∂ri/∂qk =∂r˙i/∂q˙kholds if you have one particle system described by spherical polar coordinates: Choose for q1, q2, q3 the parameters r, θ, ϕ.arrow_forwardThe answer for this problem would be "B" but could you explain me why? The reason for this is to understand this kind of problems in the future not only this one.arrow_forwardRepeat the preceding problem, with E=2xi+3x2k.arrow_forward
