Card 0 of 1
Determine if the statement is true or false:
If the -axis is the axis of symmetry and a surface is revolving around it and
is an arbitrary function, then the partial differential equation associated with that said surface, satisfies the equation:
To determine the truth of this statement, assume the following.
is some function
From here, differential with respect to
and
.
Next eliminate as it is an arbitrary function.
This leads to the result,
Therefore, the statement,
If the -axis is the axis of symmetry and a surface is revolving around it and
is an arbitrary function, then the partial differential equation associated with that said surface, satisfies the equation:
is true.
