Question:

2.11 Consider the flow field given in Eulerian description by the expression V =axi+bytj, where a=0 2 s−1, b=0 04 s−2, and the coordinates are measured in meters. Derive the Lagrangian position functions for the fluid particle that was located at the point x,y = 1,1 at the instant t =0. Obtain an algebraic expression for the pathline followed by this particle. Plot the pathline and compare with the streamlines plotted through the same point at the instants t =0, 10, and 20 s.
