1. Partial Differentiation (Introduction)

In the package onintroductory differentiation, rates of change of functions were shown to be measured by thederivative. Many applications require functions with more than one variable: the ideal gas law, for example, ispV=kTwherepis the pressure,Vthe volume,Tthe absolute temperature of the gas, andkis a constant. Rearranging this equation as p=kTV shows thatpis a function ofTandV. If one of the variables, sayT, is kept fixed andVchanges, then the derivative ofpwith respect to Vmeasures therate of changeofpressurewith respect tovolume. In this case, it is calledthe partial derivative ofpwith respect toVand written as∂p ∂V Section 1: Partial Differentiation (Introduction) 4 Example 1Ifp=kTV, find the partial derivatives ofp: (a)with respect toT,(b)with respect toV.

Solution

(a)This part of the example proceeds as follows: p=kT V, ?∂p ∂T=k V, whereVis treated as a constant for this calculation. (b)For this part,Tis treated as a constant. Thus p=kT

2. The Rules of Partial Differentiation

(a)Herez=uv, whereu=xyandv= cos(xy)so theproduct rule applies (see the package on theProduct and Quotient Rules). u=xyandv=cos(xy)?∂u ∂x=yand∂v ∂x=-ysin(xy).

Thus∂z
