Question:

A flow is described by velocity field \(\vec{V}=a y^{2} \hat{i}+b \hat{j}\), where \(a=1 \mathrm{~m}^{-1} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}\) and \(b=2 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\). Coordinates are measured in meters. Obtain the equation for the streamline passing through point \((6,6)\). At \(t=1 \mathrm{~s}\), what are the coordinates of the particle that passed through point \((1,4)\) at \(t=0\) ? At \(t=3 \mathrm{~s}\), what are the coordinates of the particle that passed through point \((-3,0) 2 \mathrm{~s}\) earlier? Show that pathlines, streamlines, and streaklines for this flow coincide.
