To determine Find the potential function f for the field F = 2 x i + 3 y j + 4 z k . Explanation Given information: The vector field F = 2 x i + 3 y j + 4 z k . Definition: If F is a vector field defined on D and F = ∇ f for some scalar function f on D , then f is called a potential function for F . Calculation: Write the vector field. F = 2 x i + 3 y j + 4 z k (1) From Equation (1): ∂ f ∂ x = 2 x (2) Integrate the Equation (2) to get the scalar function. f ( x , y , z ) = 2 x 2 2 + g ( y , z ) = x 2 + g ( y , z ) (3) From Equation (1) and Equation (2), ∂ f ∂ y = ∂ g ∂ y = 3 y (4) Integrate the Equation (4) to get the scalar function. g ( y , z ) = 3 y 2 2 + h ( z ) (5) Substitute Equation (5) in Equation (3)
