Obtain the partial differential equation by eliminating the arbitrary constants 'a' and 'b' from the given equation $(x^2)p + ay^2 + b = z$.
The partial differential equation can be obtained by differentiating the given equation partially with respect to 'x' and 'y', resulting in the equations $(x^2)p + b = 2xq$ and $ay^2 + b = 2yp$. Substituting these back into the original equation, we get $(2xq)(2yp) = 4xyz$, which is the partial differential equation.
Form the partial differential equation of all spheres whose centers lie on the z-axis.
Form the partial differential equation of all spheres whose centers lie on the z-axis.
The partial differential equation of all spheres whose centers lie on the z-axis is $x^2 + y^2 + (z - c)^2 = r^2$, where $c$ is the constant representing the center of the sphere and $r$ is the radius.

Study Notes
Partial Differential Equation of a Sphere
- Given equation: $(x^2)p + ay^2 + b = z$, where 'a' and 'b' are arbitrary constants
- To obtain the partial differential equation, eliminate 'a' and 'b' from the equation
- The equation represents a sphere with center on the z-axis
Sphere Equation
- The equation of a sphere is: $x^2 + y^2 + (z - c)^2 = r^2$, where 'c' is the center of the sphere and 'r' is the radius
- Differentiating the sphere equation with respect to 'x' gives: $2x + 2(z - c)(-p) = 0$, where $p = \frac{\partial z}{\partial x}$
- Differentiating the sphere equation with respect to 'y' gives: $2y + 2(z - c)(-q) = 0$, where $q = \frac{\partial z}{\partial y}$
- Expressing the equations in terms of 'p' and 'q' gives: $x = -(z - c)p$ and $y = -(z - c)q$
- Substituting these expressions into the original equation gives: $(x^2)p + ay^2 + b = z$, where 'a' and 'b' are eliminated
- The resulting partial differential equation represents all spheres whose centers lie on the z-axis
