Question: ( 1 0 0 points ) A 3 D velocity field is defined as vec ( V ) = uhat ( i ) + vhat

(100 points) A 3D velocity field is defined as vec(V)=uhat(i)+vhat(j)+what(k)=(2x+y2+z+t)hat(i)+
(x2-3y+z2-t)hat(j)+(x2+y+z+t)hat(k).
(a) Is the flow steady or unsteady ?(5)
(b) Find he stagnation point of the flow, at time t=0.(10)
(c) Calculate the total acceleration (D(vec(V))Dt) of the flow. Label temporal and spatial (ad-
vection) parts of the acceleration. (25)
(d) Is the flow rotational or irrotational ?
Prove it by calculating the vorticity of the flow. (20)
(e) What is the linear strain rate of the flow in the three directions (,yy,zz)?
Based on them, can you comment on the in incompressibility of the flow? (20)
(f) Write out the complete strain rate tensor (ij) for the flow. (20)
