Help Me Solve $\text{Im}(z^3)$ in Rectangular Form

In summary, the conversation is about finding the imaginary part of $z^3$ in rectangular form, where $z=x+jy$. The solution is $\text{Im}(z^3)=3x^2y-y^3$.

I don't how to proceed further

Let $z=x+jy$ find in rectangular form:

1. $\text{Im}(z^3)$

this is where I can get to,

$\text{Im}(x^3+3x^2jy+3xj^2y^2+j^3y^3)=\text{Im}(x^3+3x^2jy-3xy^2-jy^3)$

please help me.

please help me.

So what are the terms which have a "j" part?

Hi Drain Brain! :)

You're already there:
$$\text{Im}(x^3+3x^2jy-3xy^2-jy^3) = \text{Im}((x^3-3xy^2)+(3x^2y-y^3)j)
= (3x^2y-y^3)$$

they are $3x^2yj-j^3$ is this the answer?

no .as I like serena mentioned it is
$3x^2y- y^3$ because imaginary part of $x+jy$ is $y $
 

FAQ: Help Me Solve $\text{Im}(z^3)$ in Rectangular Form

What is the meaning of "Im(z^3)" in rectangular form?

The notation "Im(z^3)" refers to the imaginary part of the complex number z^3 when it is written in rectangular form. This means that we are looking at the coefficient of the imaginary unit, i, in the expression z^3.

What is the formula for solving Im(z^3) in rectangular form?

The formula for solving Im(z^3) in rectangular form is Im(z^3) = Im((x+yi)^3) = Im(x^3 + 3x^2yi - 3xy^2 - iy^3) = 3x^2y - y^3.

How do I convert Im(z^3) from polar form to rectangular form?

To convert Im(z^3) from polar form to rectangular form, we use the formula Im(z^3) = Im(|z^3|e^(i arg(z^3))) = |z^3|sin(arg(z^3)). Here, |z^3| represents the magnitude of z^3 and arg(z^3) represents the argument or angle of z^3.

What is the relationship between Im(z^3) and the third coordinate of z^3 in the Argand plane?

In the Argand plane, the third coordinate of z^3 represents the imaginary part of z^3. Therefore, the value of Im(z^3) is equal to the third coordinate of z^3 in the Argand plane. This is because the imaginary part of a complex number is represented by the vertical axis in the Argand plane.

How can I use Im(z^3) in rectangular form to solve problems in physics and engineering?

In physics and engineering, complex numbers are often used to represent quantities that have both magnitude and direction. By using the formula Im(z^3) = 3x^2y - y^3, we can find the vertical component of a vector in a three-dimensional space. This can be useful in solving problems involving forces, electric fields, and other physical quantities that have both real and imaginary components.
