In a two-dimensional, incompressible flow the fluid velocity components are given by u = x – 4y and v = -y - 4x. Show that the flow satisfies the continuity equation and obtain the expression for the stream function. If the flow is potential (irrotational) obtain also the expression for the velocity potential.
