(a) Let's use v \mathbf{v} v to denote the bee's velocity vector at time t = 2 t=2 t = 2 .
The bee's direction of motion is tangent to the curve.
That tangent is perpendicular to both the normal vector to
3 z + x 2 + y 2 = 2 3z + x^2 + y^2 = 2 3 z + x 2 + y 2 = 2 at ( 1 , 1 , 0 ) (1,1,0) ( 1 , 1 , 0 ) , which is
< 2 x , 2 y , 3 > ∣ ( x , y , z ) = ( 1 , 1 , 0 ) = < 2 , 2 , 3 > \left< 2x\,,\,2y\,,\,3\right>\Big|_{(x,y,z)=(1,1,0)} = \left< 2\,,\,2\,,\,3\right> ⟨ 2 x , 2 y , 3 ⟩ ( x , y , z ) = ( 1 , 1 , 0 ) = ⟨ 2 , 2 , 3 ⟩
and the normal vector to z = x 2 − y 2 z = x^2 - y^2 z = x 2 − y 2 at ( 1 , 1 , 0 ) (1,1,0) ( 1 , 1 , 0 ) , which is
< 2 x , − 2 y , − 1 > ∣ ( x , y , z ) = ( 1 , 1 , 0 ) = < 2 , − 2 , − 1 > \left< 2x\,,\,-2y\,,\,-1\right>\Big|_{(x,y,z)=(1,1,0)} = \left< 2\,,\,-2\,,\,-1\right> ⟨ 2 x , − 2 y , − 1 ⟩ ( x , y , z ) = ( 1 , 1 , 0 ) = ⟨ 2 , − 2 , − 1 ⟩
So v \mathbf{v} v has to be some constant times
< 2 , 2 , 3 > × < 2 , − 2 , − 1 > = det [ ı ^ ȷ ^ k ^ 2 2 3 2 − 2 − 1 ] = < 4 , 8 , − 8 > \begin{aligned}
\left< 2\,,\,2\,,\,3\right> \times \left< 2\,,\,-2\,,\,-1\right> =\det\left[\begin{matrix}
\hat{\boldsymbol{\imath}} & \hat{\boldsymbol{\jmath}} & \hat{\mathbf{k}} \\
2 & 2 & 3 \\
2 & -2 & -1
\end{matrix}\right]
=\left< 4 \,,\, 8 \,,\, -8 \right> \end{aligned} ⟨ 2 , 2 , 3 ⟩ × ⟨ 2 , − 2 , − 1 ⟩ = det ^ 2 2 ^ 2 − 2 k ^ 3 − 1 = ⟨ 4 , 8 , − 8 ⟩
or, equivalently, some constant times < 1 , 2 , − 2 > \left< 1 \,,\, 2 \,,\, -2 \right> ⟨ 1 , 2 , − 2 ⟩ .
Since the z z z –component of v \mathbf{v} v has to be positive,
v \mathbf{v} v has to be a positive constant times
< − 1 , − 2 , 2 > \left< -1 \,,\, -2 \,,\, 2 \right> ⟨ − 1 , − 2 , 2 ⟩ .
Since the speed has to be 6 6 6 , v \mathbf{v} v has to have length 6 6 6 .
As ∣ < − 1 , − 2 , 2 > ∣ = 3 |\left< -1 \,,\, -2 \,,\, 2 \right>|=3 ∣ ⟨ − 1 , − 2 , 2 ⟩ ∣ = 3
v = 2 < − 1 , − 2 , 2 > = < − 2 , − 4 , 4 > \mathbf{v} = 2\left< -1 \,,\, -2 \,,\, 2 \right> =\left< -2 \,,\, -4 \,,\, 4 \right> v = 2 ⟨ − 1 , − 2 , 2 ⟩ = ⟨ − 2 , − 4 , 4 ⟩
(b) Solution 1 :
Suppose that the bee is at ( x ( t ) , y ( t ) , z ( t ) ) \big(x(t),y(t),z(t)\big) ( x ( t ) , y ( t ) , z ( t ) ) at time t t t .
Then the temperature that the bee feels at time t t t is
T ( x ( t ) , y ( t ) , z ( t ) , t ) = x ( t ) y ( t ) − 3 x ( t ) + 2 y ( t ) t + z ( t ) \begin{aligned}
T\big(x(t),y(t),z(t),t\big) = x(t) y(t) -3x(t) +2y(t) t +z(t)
\end{aligned} T ( x ( t ) , y ( t ) , z ( t ) , t ) = x ( t ) y ( t ) − 3 x ( t ) + 2 y ( t ) t + z ( t )
Then the rate of change of temperature (per unit time) felt by the bee at time
t = 2 t=2 t = 2 is
d d t T ( x ( t ) , y ( t ) , z ( t ) , t ) ∣ t = 2 = x ′ ( 2 ) y ( 2 ) + x ( 2 ) y ′ ( 2 ) − 3 x ′ ( 2 ) + 2 y ′ ( 2 ) 2 + 2 y ( 2 ) + z ′ ( 2 ) \begin{aligned}
\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}t}T\big(x(t),y(t),z(t),t\big)\Big|_{t=2}
&=x'(2)y(2) + x(2)y'(2) -3x'(2) +2y'(2)2+2y(2) +z'(2) \\
\end{aligned} d t d T ( x ( t ) , y ( t ) , z ( t ) , t ) t = 2 = x ′ ( 2 ) y ( 2 ) + x ( 2 ) y ′ ( 2 ) − 3 x ′ ( 2 ) + 2 y ′ ( 2 ) 2 + 2 y ( 2 ) + z ′ ( 2 )
Recalling that, at time t = 2 t=2 t = 2 , the bee is at ( 1 , 1 , 0 ) (1,1,0) ( 1 , 1 , 0 ) and has velocity
< − 2 , − 4 , 4 > \left< -2 \,,\, -4 \,,\, 4 \right> ⟨ − 2 , − 4 , 4 ⟩
d d t T ( x ( t ) , y ( t ) , z ( t ) , t ) ∣ t = 2 = ( − 2 ) ( 1 ) + ( 1 ) ( − 4 ) − 3 ( − 2 ) + 2 ( − 4 ) 2 + 2 ( 1 ) + 4 = − 10 \begin{aligned}
\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}t}T\big(x(t),y(t),z(t),t\big)\Big|_{t=2}
&=(-2)(1) + (1)(-4) -3(-2) +2(-4)2+2(1) +4 \\
&=-10
\end{aligned} d t d T ( x ( t ) , y ( t ) , z ( t ) , t ) t = 2 = ( − 2 ) ( 1 ) + ( 1 ) ( − 4 ) − 3 ( − 2 ) + 2 ( − 4 ) 2 + 2 ( 1 ) + 4 = − 10
(b) Solution 2 :
Suppose that the bee is at ( x ( t ) , y ( t ) , z ( t ) ) \big(x(t),y(t),z(t)\big) ( x ( t ) , y ( t ) , z ( t ) ) at time t t t .
Then the temperature that the bee feels at time t t t is
T ( x ( t ) , y ( t ) , z ( t ) , t ) \begin{aligned}
T\big(x(t),y(t),z(t),t\big)
\end{aligned} T ( x ( t ) , y ( t ) , z ( t ) , t )
By the chain rule, the rate of change of temperature (per unit time)
felt by the bee at time t = 2 t=2 t = 2 is
d d t T ( x ( t ) , y ( t ) , z ( t ) , t ) ∣ t = 2 = [ ∂ T ∂ x ( x ( t ) , y ( t ) , z ( t ) , t ) x ′ ( t ) + ∂ T ∂ y ( x ( t ) , y ( t ) , z ( t ) , t ) y ′ ( t ) + ∂ T ∂ z ( x ( t ) , y ( t ) , z ( t ) , t ) z ′ ( t ) + ∂ T ∂ t ( x ( t ) , y ( t ) , z ( t ) , t ) ] t = 2 \begin{aligned}
\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}t}T\big(x(t),y(t),z(t),t\big)\Big|_{t=2}
&=\bigg[\frac{\partial T}{\partial x}\big(x(t),y(t),z(t),t\big)\,x'(t)

+\frac{\partial T}{\partial z}\big(x(t),y(t),z(t),t\big)\,z'(t)

\end{aligned} d t d T ( x ( t ) , y ( t ) , z ( t ) , t ) t = 2 = [ ∂ x ∂ T ( x ( t ) , y ( t ) , z ( t ) , t ) x ′ ( t ) + ∂ y ∂ T ( x ( t ) , y ( t ) , z ( t ) , t ) y ′ ( t ) + ∂ z ∂ T ( x ( t ) , y ( t ) , z ( t ) , t ) z ′ ( t ) + ∂ t ∂ T ( x ( t ) , y ( t ) , z ( t ) , t ) ] t = 2
Recalling that T = x y − 3 x + 2 y t + z T = xy - 3x+2yt+z T = x y − 3 x + 2 y t + z , we have
d d t T ( x ( t ) , y ( t ) , z ( t ) , t ) ∣ t = 2 = [ y ( 2 ) − 3 ] x ′ ( 2 ) + [ x ( 2 ) + 2 × 2 ] y ′ ( 2 ) + z ′ ( 2 ) + 2 y ( 2 ) \begin{aligned}
\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}t}T\big(x(t),y(t),z(t),t\big)\Big|_{t=2}
&=[y(2)-3]x'(2) + [x(2)+2\times 2]y'(2) +z'(2) +2y(2)
\end{aligned} d t d T ( x ( t ) , y ( t ) , z ( t ) , t ) t = 2 = [ y ( 2 ) − 3 ] x ′ ( 2 ) + [ x ( 2 ) + 2 × 2 ] y ′ ( 2 ) + z ′ ( 2 ) + 2 y ( 2 )
Also recalling that, at time t = 2 t=2 t = 2 , the bee is at ( 1 , 1 , 0 ) (1,1,0) ( 1 , 1 , 0 ) and has velocity
< − 2 , − 4 , 4 > \left< -2 \,,\, -4 \,,\, 4 \right> ⟨ − 2 , − 4 , 4 ⟩
d d t T ( x ( t ) , y ( t ) , z ( t ) , t ) ∣ t = 2 = [ − 2 ] ( − 2 ) + [ 5 ] ( − 4 ) + 4 + 2 = − 10 \begin{aligned}
