Step 1
To Determine: Verify the Sum and Product Rules for derivatives of vector-valued functions.
Given: we have a vector valued function.
Explanation: we know that the property of sum and for production of the vector valued function:
property: the derivative of the sum of two vector valued function is equal to the sum of each functions derivative.
(F(t)+G(t))=F(t)+G(t)
now let us consider an example
F(t)=(t2,5t) and G(t)=(sint,cost)
now finding L.H.S we have the sum equals to
(F(t)+G(t))=(t2+sint,5t+cost)
now the derivative is
(F(t)+G(t))=(2t+cost,5sint)
now finding R.H.S we have derivative
F(t)=(2t,5)
G(t)=(costsint)
F(t)+G(t)=(2t+cost,5sint)
hence LHS=RHS
Step 2
property: if you multiply a scalar function by a vector values function the derivative of their product will follows the product rule for derivative
(f(t)G(t))=f(t)G(t)+G(t)f(t)
let us consider
f(t)=t2 and G(t)=(t4,lnt)
f(t)G(t)=(t6,t2lnt)
[f(t)G(t)]=(6t5,2tlnt+t)
now the RHS will be
f(t)=t2 and G(t)
