Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) : Electromagnetic Field Theory - Quiz(MCQ)
Find the gradient of the function sin x + cos y.
A)
cos x i + sin y j
B)
cos x i – sin y j
C)
sin x i – cos y j
D)
sin x i + cos y j

Correct Answer : Option (B) :   cos x i – sin y j


Explanation : Grad (sin x + cos y) gives partial differentiation of sin x+ cos y with respect to x and partial differentiation of sin x + cos y with respect to y and similarly with respect to z. This gives cos x i – sin y j + 0 k = cos x i – sin y j.
