**Velocity Field Analysis**

**Velocity Equation:**

\[
\vec{V} = (ax\hat{i} - ay\hat{j})(2 + \cos \omega t)
\]

---

**Tasks:**

1. **a) Streamline Equation:**
- Find the streamline at the point $(x, y) = (2, 2)$.

**b) Time Variation:**
- Determine if the streamline will change over time.

2. **Pathline Analysis:**
- Analyze the pathline at $(2, 2)$ when $t = 0$.

---

**Notes:**

- **Streamlines** represent paths followed by fluid particles in steady flow. At any point, they are tangent to the velocity field.
- **Pathlines** track the actual path traversed by individual fluid particles over time.

This analysis will help in understanding fluid dynamics in varying conditions detailed by the velocity field equation.

Expert Solution

Step 1

Stream line: A streamline is a line tangent to the direction of the current velocity (velocity is a vector and has magnitude and direction). To visualize this in a flow, we can imagine the movement of small labeled liquid elements.

Path line: Path lines are trajectories followed by individual fluid particles. They can be viewed as 'records' of fluid element paths in flow over a period of time. The direction the path follows is determined by the streamlines of the liquid at any given time.

Here, velocity field is given i.e., $V = (a x \hat{i} - a y \hat{j}) (2 + \cos (w t))$
