Determine whether or not f is a conservative vector field 3x^2 -5y^2

Sagot :

The given vector Field f(x,y)= [tex]3x^{2} - 5y^{2}[/tex] is not Conservative.

What is Conservative Vector Field?

A conservative vector field is a vector field that is the gradient of some function.

The integral is independent of the path that C takes going from its starting point to its ending point.

We know that , the function F conservative if

[tex]\frac{ dP}{dy}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{dQ}{dx}[/tex]

If we prove opposite of this then the function F is not conservative

We have given function , f(x,y)= [tex]3x^{2} - 5y^{2}[/tex]

let P(x,y) = [tex]3x^{2} - 5y^{2}[/tex]  and Q (x,y) =0

Now, [tex]\frac{dP}{dy}[/tex] = -10y

and, [tex]\frac{dQ}{dx}[/tex] = 0

Since [tex]\frac{dP}{dy}[/tex][tex]\frac{dQ}{dx}[/tex]

Hence, the field is not conservative.
