for this question, consider a southern hemisphere subtropical gyre, with convergent Ekman transport.
I know the picture quality is bad, but, in this picture, the left one is a western boundary case in which the boundary current flows southward and the right picture is the eastern boundary case in which the boundary current flows northward. In both cases the movements are counterclockwise.
1) what happens to the planetary vorticity, f, in the boundary current? Assuming that relative vorticity and depth remain constant, what happens to potential vorticity?
my answer: I think planetary vorticity increases for the eastern
boundary current and and decreases for the western boundary
current. I think potential vorticity increases for the eastern
boundary current and decreases for the western boundary current
too. Is this correct?
and can you help me solve the above question using the information i've provided throughout this entire question?

Consider a cylindrical capacitor like that shown in Fig. 24.6. Let d = rb − ra be the spacing between the inner and outer conductors. (a) Let the radii of the two conductors be only slightly different, so that d << ra. Show that the result derived in Example 24.4 (Section 24.1) for the capacitance of a cylindrical capacitor then reduces to Eq. (24.2), the equation for the capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor, with A being the surface area of...
