Obtain general expression for acceleration of fluid particle


A steady, two-dimensional velocity field is given by V = Axi - Ayj, where A = 1 s^-1. Show that the streamlines for this flow are rectangular hyperbolas, xy = C. Plot streamlines that correspond to C = 0,1, and 2 m^2. Obtain a general expression for the acceleration of a fluid particle in this velocity field. Calculate the acceleration of fluid particles at the points (x, y) = (0.5, 2), (1, 1), and (2, 0.5), where xand y are measured in meters. Show the acceleration vectors on the streamline plot
