Evaluate aF/an, where n is the unit outer normal to the surface given, at a general point(x, y, z) of the surface given:a) F = x2 - y2, surface x2 + y2 + z2 = 4;b) F = xyz, surface x2 + 2y2 + 4z2 = 8.3.

Let arc length s be measured from the point (2,O) of the circle x2 + y2 = 4, starting in thedirection of increasing y . If u = x2 - y2, evaluate dulds on this circle. Check the resultby using both the directional derivative and the explicit expression for u in terms of s. Atwhat point of the circle does u have its smallest value?7. Under the hypotheses of Problem 3, show that &/as = av/an along each curve C of thedomain in which u and v are given, for appropriate direction of the normal n.8. Determine the points (x, y) and directions for which the directional derivative of u =3x2 + y2 has its largest value, if (x, y) is restricted to lie on the circle x2 + y2 = 1.9. A function F(x, y, 2) is known to have the following values : F(1, 1, 1) = 1, F(2, 1, 1) = 4,F(2,2, 1) = 8, F(2, 2,2) = 16. Compute approximately the directional derivatives:at the point (I, 1, 1).ViF, V,+jF, Vi+j+kFLet a function z = F(x, y) be given; its two partial derivatives az/ax and az/ay arethemselves functions of x and y:Hence each can be differentiated with respect to x and y; one thus obtains the foursecond partial derivatives:
