3) Consider the parametrized curve CC given by

x⁢(t)=t⁢cos⁡t, y⁢(t)=t⁢sin⁡t.x(t)=t\cos t,\;y(t)=t\sin t.

a) Find the gradient of CC at (x⁢(t),y⁢(t))(x(t),y(t)).

b) Find the arc length along CC from (x⁢(0),y⁢(0))(x(0),y(0)) to (x⁢(π),y⁢(π))(x(\pi),y(\pi)).

4) Let f⁢(x,y)f(x,y) be a continuous function defined for all real values of xx and yy. Which of the following statements is true, and which is false? Justify your answers.

a) ∫cd∫abf⁢(x,y)⁢d⁢x⁢d⁢y=∫cd∫abf⁢(x,y)⁢d⁢y⁢d⁢x\int_{c}^{d}\int_{a}^{b}f(x,y)\,dx\,dy=\int_{c}^{d}\int_{a}^{b}f(x,y)\,dy\,dx for any a,b,c,d∈ℝa,b,c,d\in{\mathbb{R}} with a≤ba\leq b, c≤dc\leq d.

b) If ∂2⁡f∂⁡x2=1\frac{\partial^{2}f}{\partial x^{2}}=1, ∂2⁡f∂⁡x⁢∂⁡y=2\frac{\partial^{2}f}{\partial x\partial y}=2 and ∂2⁡f∂⁡y2=1\frac{\partial^{2}f}{\partial y^{2}}=1 then f⁢(x,y)f(x,y) has no local maxima or minima.

c) The curve CC defined by f⁢(x,y)=0f(x,y)=0 has gradient d⁢yd⁢x=(∂⁡f/∂⁡y)P(∂⁡f/∂⁡x)P\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{(\partial f/\partial y)_{P}}{(\partial f/\partial x)_{P}} at a point PP on CC.
