Let $\rho(x, y, z, t)$ and $u(x, y, z, t)$ represent density and velocity, respectively, at a point $(x, y, z)$ and time $t$. Assume $\frac{\partial \rho }{\partial t}$ is continuous. Let $V$ be an arbitrary volume in space enclosed by the closed surface $S$ and $\hat{n}$ be the outward unit normal of $S$. Which of the following equations is/are equivalent to $\frac{\partial \rho }{\partial t} + \nabla \cdot(\rho u) = 0$?
Let $${v_1} = \left[ {\matrix{ 1 \cr 2 \cr 0 \cr } } \right]$$ and $${v_2} = \left[ {\matrix{ 2 \cr 1 \cr 3 \cr } } \right]$$ be two vectors. The value of the coefficient $$\alpha$$ in the expression $${v_1} = \alpha {v_2} + e$$, which minimizes the length of the error vector e, is
The rate of increase, of a scalar field $$f(x,y,z) = xyz$$, in the direction $$v = (2,1,2)$$ at a point (0,2,1) is
