Question: 4 . 1 ( A ) The surface temperature of a lake changes from one location to another as T ( x 1 , x

4.1(A) The surface temperature of a lake changes from one location to another as T(x1,x2). If you attach a thermometer to a boat and take a path through the lake given by xi=bi(hat(t)), find an expression for the rate of change of the thermometer temperature in terms of the lake temperature.
4.2(A) In a table of vector differential operators, look up the expressions for gradv in a cylindrical coordinate system.
(a) Compute the vorticity for the flow in a round tube where the velocity profile is
vz=v0[1-(rR)2]
(b) Compute the vorticity for an ideal vortex where the velocity is
v=2r, constant
(c) Compute the vorticity in the vortex flow given by
v=2r[1-exp(-r24vt)]
Sketch all velocity and vorticity profiles.
4.5(A) Consider a two-dimensional flow with velocity components v1=cx1,v2=-cx2. Find expressions for the vorticity and the strain rate tensor.
4.9(A) Consider the two-dimensional flow from a line source given in cylindrical coordinates by vr=Q2r,vz=v0=0. Compute the components of the strain rate tensor for this flow.
4.11(B) Compute the components of the strain rate tensor and vorticity vector for the Burgers vortex. The velocity components in cylindrical coordinates are are constants)
vr=-ar,vz=2az
v=2r[1-exp(-r22va)]
