Textbook Question

Chapter 9.3, Problem 67E

Psychology. A rat is placed in room F or room B of the maze shown in the Figure. The rat wanders from room to room until it enters one of the rooms containing food, L or R . Assume that the rat chooses an exit from a room at random and that once it enters a room with food it never leaves.

(A) What is the long-run probability that a rat placed in room B ends up in room R ?

(B) What is the average number of exits that a rat placed in room B will choose until it finds food?

1. Show that the vector field F(x, y, z) = (2x sin ye³)ix² cos yj + (3xe³ +5)k satisfies the necessary conditions for a conservative vector field, and find a potential function for F.

1. Newton's Law of Gravitation (an example of an inverse square law) states that the magnitude of the gravitational force between two objects with masses m and M is |F| mMG |r|2 where r is the distance between the objects, and G is the gravitational constant. Assume that the object with mass M is located at the origin in R³. Then, the gravitational force field acting on the object at the point r = (x, y, z) is given by F(x, y, z) = mMG r3 r. mMG mMG Show that the scalar vector field f(x, y, z) = = is a potential function for r √√x² + y² . Fi.e. show that F = Vf. Remark: f is the negative of the physical potential energy, because F = -V(-ƒ).
