PLEASE HELP!!!!! Find the flux of F={xz,x^2y,y^2z} through the surface made of the cylinder x^2+y^2=1, paraboloid z=x^2+y^2, and the coordinate planes.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

what have you tried ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I've tried finding the flux by taking the partials of vectorF. I have an example we did in class we are working off that has an open ended cylinder. I don't know how to work with both the cylinder and parabolid

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Okay, can we use divergence theorem ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes. if we assume xz(i)+x^2y(j)+y^2z(k)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which would give z+x^2+y^2=?

@ganeshie8

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

yes set up the triple integral

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\int\limits_{0}^{2\pi}\int\limits_{?}^{?}\int\limits_{?}^{?} (???) r dzdrd \theta\] this is where i get lost @ganeshie8

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

you want the flux only in first octant i think

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\(\theta\) : 0->pi/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay and how do I find what r is?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

r : 0->1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

would you mind explaining why?

the shadow of the solid region between xy plane, cylinder and paraboloid gives you a disk of radius 1
