Question#1:
If 𝑛𝑛 = 2 write out explicitly the triple summation 𝐶𝐶𝑟𝑟𝑟𝑟𝑟𝑟𝑥𝑥𝑟𝑟𝑦𝑦𝑠𝑠𝑧𝑧𝑡𝑡.
Solution:
Given:
r=0 to r=2
s=0 to s=2-r
t=0 to t=2-r-s
Step 1 : when r=0
s=0 , t goes from 0 to 2:
+ +
= + +
s=1,t goes from 0 to 1 :
= +
= +
= +
s=2, t goes from o to 10 :
=
Step 2 : when r=1
s=0 , t goes from 0 to 2 :
= +
= +
= +
s=1,t goes from 0 to 0 :
= xy
Step 3: when r=2
s=0,t goes from 0 to 0 :
= =
The full expanded expression is:
+ + + + + + + xy+

Z-coordinate:
The z-coordinate remains the same, so z=5.
(𝑟, 𝜃, 𝑧)=(5,0.927,5)
The cylindrical coordinates of P are :
𝑖𝑖.the parabolic cylindrical coordinates (𝑢, 𝑣, 𝑧):
In parabolic cylindrical coordinates (𝑢, 𝑣, 𝑧), the relation are:
x= (
y=uv
z=z
Step 1 :
given x=3, y=4 and z=5
x= (
3= (
3 (
6 (
Therefore,
Y=uv
4=uv
So,
z=z
z=5
solve u and v
y=uv
4=uv
V=
Step 2 :
Substitute values in the equation
x= (

W=8 ,w=-2 (w=u2
So,
u2=8
taking square root on both side
u=2
Step 3 : calculate v
y=uv (as y=4)
4=uv
