Question: Given the 2 D scalar field, T ( x , y ) = x 3 y 2 + 3 x 2 y l n (

Given the 2D scalar field, T(x,y)=x3y2+3x2yln(x), where ln(*) is the natural logarithm function.
(a |Find the gradient of T(x,y) in Cartesian coordinate system;
(b) Find the directional derivative delTdels in the direction s=hat(i)+2hat(j) defined in Cartesian coordinate system;
(c) Find the direction of maximum change of T at the point (2,2) and write your answer in terms of unit vector (Hint: gradient).
