would appreciate some help on this homework question Find work done by force F = (x^2yz)I +( y^2xz)j + (z^2x y)k in moving a particle along the helix r(t) = 2 cos t I +2 sint j + (3/2π)t k, t ϵ [0,2π]. Hint: Add a straight line segment to close the path of integration and apply Stokes’ theorem.

@moypat it can be done simply without using Stokes' theorem or u want me to solve it only by Stokes' theorem??????

OpenStudy (anonymous):

id prefer if u did it using stokes theorem as the question asks.. thanks in advance for your help :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k wait i m solving one's prob.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sure, no probZ

OpenStudy (turingtest):

So you want to solve this with a surface integral? It seems easier as a line integral unless I'm missing something.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok i m back:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i guess the hint has something to do with solving it as a survace integral

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*surface

OpenStudy (turingtest):

seems like an ugly surface though

OpenStudy (anonymous):

make it in z plane it will make it simplify:)
