Green's theorem...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Use Green’s theorem to evaluate \[\int\limits_{C}^{}(x^2+y^2)dx+(x^2+2xy)dy\] where C is the boundary of the region in the first quadrant determined by the graphs of \[x=0, y=1, y=x^2\] Not after a straight out answer, but any guidance as to how to do it would be really appreciated :) Cheers!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Looks like we're studying the same material.....my final exam is tomorrow!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think you have the formula, right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Haha hey Nisha me too!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

AnwarA... which formula? :S

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i just solved one like this last night.....see if I can find it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So evaluate those partial derivatives and determine the boundaries for x and y and start integrating.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok, here: \[\int\limits_{C}^{}P dx+Qdy=\int\limits_{D}^{}\int\limits_{}^{}({\partial Q \over \partial x}-{\partial P \over \partial y})dA.\] The only problematic part here is to find the boundaries of the region D. Everything else is straight forward. I'll do it in steps in the next comment.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

never mind, I messed my integral up, anwarA is right.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

But isn't \[\delta(x^2+y^2)/\delta x = \delta(x^2+2xy)/\delta y = 2x\] ... so it would be zero? :S

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ooooooooh k hang on a sec then haha

OpenStudy (anonymous):

In our case, we have \(P=x^2+y^2 \implies \frac{\partial P}{\partial y}=2y\), \(Q=x^2+2xy \implies \frac{\partial Q}{\partial x}=2x+2y\), and \(dA=dx dy\). Now, we only have to find the boundaries, which is NOT difficult at all. But it's better to be done using graphs.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ahh greens thoerm , nice and easy

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Are both the limits 0 to 1...? Or am I just a bit special...?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

draw up the region

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you can either have { 0<=x<=1 , x^2<=y<=1}

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You can see from the graph that \(0 \le x \le 1\) and \(x^2 \le y \le 1\).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or {0<=y<=1 , 0<=x<=sqrt{y} }

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the first description of the region is the best to work with , so use that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now to sum up everything, our desirable integral (call it I) is going to be: \[I=\int\limits_{0}^{1}\int\limits_{x^2}^{1} (2x+2y-2y)dy dx=\int\limits_{0}^{1}\int\limits_{x^2}^{1}2x dy dx\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That integral is very easy and I found it equal to \(\frac{1}{2}\).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am not sure of you're even reading what I have been writing :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sheesh, I was reading it :-) Thank you!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

multivariable calculus is pretty fun I reckon

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It is, more problems please :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think it is too!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh, but I don't understand this surface area stuff

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sketch the solid bounded by x^2 +y^2 =4 , z=1 and z=9-3x-2y . Calculate its volume.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if you want another question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh, I made a mistake in the boundaries. Check it again; it should be \( 0\le y \le 1\) and \( 0 \le x \le \sqrt{y}\). Sorry for that :(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no, it doesnt matter

OpenStudy (anonymous):

they both describe the same region .

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not really :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

never mind, again.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's easier to make mistakes here than when you're solving in papers!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

true

OpenStudy (anonymous):

z=x^2+y^2 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Find the surface area of the surface S. S is the paraboloid x^2 + y ^ 2- z = 0 below the plane z = 99/4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[x=rcos(\theta )\]\[y= rsin(\theta)\] z= r^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 0<=r^2<=99/5 , 0<= theta <= 2 pi

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the first inequality comes frm the range on z , and should be 0<=r^2<= 99/4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so\[0\le r \le \frac{\sqrt{99}}{2}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now you need a normal vector then normal vector is defined as the cross product of \[\frac{df}{d \theta} \times \frac{df}{dr}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

where \[f = ( x(r, \theta) , y(r, \theta), z( r, \theta ) ) \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

take the cross product of the vectors \[( -r \sin(\theta) , rcos(\theta) , 0 ) \times ( \cos(\theta) , \sin(\theta) , 2r ) \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

find that cross product , then find its length ( which will be a function of r and theta ) , and then integrate that over the rectangular region :\[0 \le r \le \frac{ \sqrt{99}}{2}\]\[0 \le \theta \le 2 \pi \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you can do the rest.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hahaha I just went out for some dinner (not sure where you guys are in the world, but for me its now 9:23pm) and couldn't have asked for a better thread to come back to! Thanks guys!
