Name:

1. Part I
There are 10 problems in Part I, each worth 4 points. Place your answer on the line below
the question. In Part I, there is no need to show your work, since only your answer on the
answer line will be graded.

(1) Compute the cross product of the vectors h1, 0, 1i and h2, 1, −3i.

p
(2) Find the gradient of the function f (x, y) = x2 + y 2 .

(3) What is the direction of steepest ascent of the function h(x, y) = xy at the point
P (2, 1)?

(4) Find a parametrization for a circle with radius 2 centered at the origin.

(5) Find an equation of the plane with normal h2, 3, −1i containing the point P (0, 1, −2).

(6) Find the linearization L(x, y) of f (x, y) = x2 y at the point (1, 1).

(7) Compute the Jacobian of the transformation x = u2 − 2v, y = 2u + v 2 .

RR
(8) Evaluate D
2dA where D is the triangular region with vertices (0, 0), (0, 1) and
(2, 0).

(9) Find rectangular coordinates of the point with spherical coordinates r = 3, φ = π,


θ = π/4.

(10) Compute div F when F(x, y, z) = hyz, cos(xz), − sin(xy)i.

2. Part II
There are 6 problems in Part II, each worth 10 points. On Part II problems show all your
work! Your work, as well as the answer, will be graded. Your solution must include enough
detail to justify any conclusions you reach in answering the question.
(1) A particle’s acceleration is given by a(t) = 9 sin t i + 9 cos t j. At t = 0 its velocity is
v(0) = 3 i + 3 k and its position is r(0) = −9 j.
(a) Find the particle’s velocity v at any time.
(b) Find the particle’s position r at any time.

(2) Use two different methods to evaluate the line integral C (y + 2x)dx + xdy, where C
is the line segment from (0, 0) to (2, 1).
(a) By direct integration.
(b) By the fundamental theorem of line integrals, after finding a potential function
for hy + 2x, xi, that is a scalar function f such that ∇f (x, y) = hy + 2x, xi.

F · dS = div F dV
S R
