Presentation Transcript

  1. Chapter 14 14.5 Directional Derivatives and Gradient Vectors Directional Derivatives in the Plane • The next map shows the contours on the area in New York. The tributary streams flow perpendicular to the contour. • The streams are following paths of steepest descent so the water reach the river as quickly as possible. • The instantaneous rate of change in a stream’s altitude above sea level has a particular direction. • In this section why this “downhill” direction is perpendicular to the contours.
