    Unit Normal to a level surface

    Homework Statement Given $$\phi = x^{2} +y^{2}-z^{2}-1 $$ Calculate the unit normal to level surface φ = 0 at the point r = (0,1,0) Homework Equations $$ \hat{\mathbf n} = \frac{∇\phi}{|\phi|}$$ $$ z = \sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2} -1} $$ $$ \mathbf n = (1,0,(\frac{\partial z}{\partial x})_{P})...
