Question: An incompressible flow in polar coordinates is given by vr = Kcos (1-b/r2) vo = - Ksin θ (1 + br2) Does this field satisfy

An incompressible flow in polar coordinates is given by
vr = Kcos (1-b/r2)
vo = - Ksin θ (1 + br2)
Does this field satisfy continuity? For consistency, what should the dimensions of constants K and b be? Sketch the surface where vr = 0 and interpret.
