To find the curl of the vector field ( mathbf{F} = 30 mathbf{i} + 2xy mathbf{j} + 5xz^2 mathbf{k} ), we will use the formula for curl in three-dimensional Cartesian coordinates:
[
nabla times mathbf{F} = begin{vmatrix}
mathbf{i} & mathbf{j} & mathbf{k} \
frac{partial}{partial x} & frac{partial}{partial y} & frac{partial}{partial z} \
30 & 2xy & 5xz^2
end{vmatrix}
]
Calculating the determinant gives us:
[
nabla times mathbf{F} = mathbf{i} left( frac{partial}{partial y}(5xz^2) – frac{partial}{partial z}(2xy) right) – mathbf{j} left( frac{partial}{partial x}(5xz^2) – frac{partial}{partial z}(30) right) + mathbf{k} left( frac{partial}{partial x}(2xy) – frac{partial}{partial y}(30) right)
]
Calculating each component:

Answer: d
Explanation: Curl F = -5z2j + 2y k. At (1,1,-0.2), Curl F = -0.2 j + 2 k. |Curl F| = √(-
0.22+22) = √4.04.
