im not sure how to parametrise this
OpenStudy (dan815):
the curve of intersection or the plane to do stokes?
OpenStudy (dan815):
plane:
R(x,y)=<x,y,y+1>
Curve of intersection:
R(t)=<cos t,sint,sint+1>
OpenStudy (dan815):
do not try to intergrate over the curve it will get ugly

stokes simplies a lot
so do integral <Del X F> .<Rx X Ry> dxdy
over the domain x^2+y^2=1
OpenStudy (dan815):
do it in polar
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i have to find the normal vector first right?
OpenStudy (dan815):
Rx X Ry gives u normal vector
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the parametrisation is ( rcos(theta) , rsin(theta) , sin (theta) +1 ) , right?

thats the paretrization of the curve
OpenStudy (dan815):
you wanna use the plane
OpenStudy (anonymous):
do i differentaite partially r(x,y) to find the normal vector?
OpenStudy (dan815):
diff R wrt to X and R with y and cross them both
OpenStudy (dan815):
The cross product of 2 independent vectors of a plane will give you a normal vector to that plane

ok i got ( 0, -2x+4,-2) . (1,-1,1)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
do i use polar coordinates for this?
OpenStudy (dan815):
u can use dxdy too try to see what happens then
OpenStudy (dan815):
also dont think the normal vector you calculate is right
OpenStudy (anonymous):
(1,-1,1) for normal vector

(0, -2x +4 , -2) for curl
OpenStudy (dan815):
the normal vector should have no component in the x direction
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeah (1,-1,1) is what i got for the normal vector
OpenStudy (dan815):
its wrong
OpenStudy (anonymous):
(0,1,1)

OpenStudy (anonymous):
wait (0,-1,1)
OpenStudy (dan815):
yes carry on
OpenStudy (dan815):
you should watch these video ocw MIT multivariable calculus
OpenStudy (dan815):
theyre very nice, and easy to undertand
OpenStudy (dan815):
it will clear up all confusion

i must go to bed now
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okie thanks
