Answer

The value of wθ=ρeρsinϕsinθsinϕ-2sinϕcosθsinθ+ρ2sin2ϕcos3θ+ρcosϕcosθ

1Step 1. Given Information.

w=x2+zeyx=ρsinϕcosθy=ρsinϕsinθz=ρcosϕ

2Step 2. Calculation.

By Theorem 12.34, we have 

wθ=wx·xθ+wy·yθ+wz·zθ-------(1)

So first we find wx,xθ,wy,yθ,wz,zθ

So we have 

wx=ey2xwy=x2+zeywz=ey·1=eyxθ=-ρsinϕsinθyθ=ρsinϕsinθzθ=0

3Step 3. Calculation.

Use these above values in (1) we get, 

wθ=wx·xθ+wy·yθ+wz·zθwθ=2xey-ρsinϕsinθ+eyx2+zρsinϕcosθ+ey0wθ=ρeysinϕ-2xsinθ+x2+zcosθ

So from here, putting the value of  x and y in terms of ρ,ϕ,θ we get

wθ=ρeysinϕ-2xsinθ+x2+zcosθwθ=ρeρsinϕsinθsinϕ-2sinϕcosθsinθ+ρ2sin2ϕcos3θ+ρcosϕcosθ

4Step 4. Conclusion.

The value of wθ=ρeρsinϕsinθsinϕ-2sinϕcosθsinθ+ρ2sin2ϕcos3θ+ρcosϕcosθ
