The velocity components in the $$x$$ and $$y$$ directions of a two dimensional potential flow are $$u$$ and $$v$$, respectively. Then $${{\partial u} \over {\partial y}}$$ is equal to

A fluid flow is represented by the velocity field $$\overrightarrow V = ax\,\overrightarrow i + ay\,\overrightarrow j ,$$ where a constant . The equation of stream line passing through a point $$(1, 2)$$ is

In a flow field, the streamlines and equipotential lines

For a fluid element in a two dimensional flow field ($$x-y$$ plane), it will undergo
