Problem 3.(20 points) In addition to the customary horizontal velocity components of
the air in the atmosphere (the "wind"), there often are vertical air currents thermals) caused
by buoyant effects due to uneven heating of the air, as indicated in Fig. 3. Assume that the
velocity field in a certain region is approximated by u=U0,v=0,y>hu=U0,v=V0(1-yh),, and
u=U0,v=0,y>h. Derive the streamline function.
