Homework Statement
Consider the force F=(y2z3 − 6xz2)i + 2xyz3j + (3xy2z2 − 6x2z)k.
I've solved the first part of the problem that asked if the force was conservative (it was) and what was the potential energy of the force(U)
U=-y2z3+3x2z2+c , c E ℝ
Find the balance points.
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I know the balance points are gotten trough derivation of U and equalating it to 0. However I don't know what should i use to derivate it with. ∂U/∂x + ∂U/∂y = 0 ? Doesn't help me much... Help would be appreciated.
Thanks
