(a) Let F = (4x + 3y) i + (3y + 8z) j + (8z + 4x)k Let C be the circumference of the circle of radius 8 in the plane x + y + z = 5, oriented counterclockwise as viewed from the point (5, 5, 5). Find integral_C F · dr = (b) Now suppose we know G = (4x^2 + 3y^2) i + (3y^2 + 8z^2) j + (8z^2 + 4x^2)k but only very near to the point (5, 5, 5). Let R be a regular octagon with area 0.08 in the plane y = 5 and C be its perimeter oriented counterclockwise when viewed from (0, 10, 0). Estimate integral_C G · dr≈ Give your answer to 3 decimal places.
@ganeshie8 do you think the best way to find the integral is to use parametric eqn?
or can I use stokes' thm?
you have a closed path so yes you can use stokes
ok I get a little confuse with stokes thm, do i just find the curl and multiply it by the area of the circle? @ganeshie8
what does stokes thm say ?
@ganeshie8 is helping you he's really good at math!
curlF dot dA
I know he is :)
curlF= -8, -4, -3
\[\oint_C \vec{F}\cdot d\vec{r} = \iint _S \mathrm{curl}(\vec{F} )\cdot \hat{n} dS\]
find ndS and take the dot product with curl
whats ndS? the normal?
yes normal to the plane
so <5,5,5>
\[\hat{n}dS = \dfrac{\vec{N}}{\vec{N}\cdot \hat{k}}dxdy\]
\[\hat{n}dS = \dfrac{\langle 5,5,5 \rangle }{\langle 5,5,5 \rangle\cdot \langle 0,0,1 \rangle}dxdy\]
so I don't need the area of the circle pi(8)^2?
\[\hat{n}dS = \langle 1,1,1 \rangle dxdy\]
so its just 5?
plug that in stokes thm formula
i'm confuse, how do you ge <1,1,1>
I'm getting -15 @ganeshie8
do i multiply -15 times pi(8)^2
\[\begin{align}\oint_C \vec{F}\cdot d\vec{r} &= \iint _S \mathrm{curl}(\vec{F} )\cdot \hat{n} dS \\~\\ &= \iint_S \langle -8,-4,-3 \rangle \cdot \langle 1,1,1 \rangle dxdy \\~\\ &= \iint_S -15 dxdy \\~\\ &= -15\iint_S 1 dxdy \\~\\ \end{align}\]
so 1dxdy is the area? @ganeshie8
yes but it is the area of projection of circular disk onto the xy plane
\[\begin{align}\oint_C \vec{F}\cdot d\vec{r} &= \iint _S \mathrm{curl}(\vec{F} )\cdot \hat{n} dS \\~\\ &= \iint_S \langle -8,-4,-3 \rangle \cdot \langle 1,1,1 \rangle dxdy \\~\\ &= \iint_S -15 dxdy \\~\\ &= -15\iint_S 1 dxdy \\~\\ &= -15 (\text{Area of projection of circular disk onto xy plane })\\~\\ &= -15(\pi \times 8^2 \times \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}) \end{align}\]
you dont have answers for these problems ?
i would like @eliassaab sir to double my work
or @Kainui @SithsAndGiggles
no I don't :/ and I can't try it out because it was due tusday
its webassign right ?
yeah
this problem its hard, I have like no idea what to do for part b @ganeshie8
part b should be easy if you understand part a
for part b : find the curl of G at (5,5,5) and dot with ndS
so I find the curl first and than sub in (5,5,5)?
cool tha's what I got, i just need to multiply it by (0.08) ? @ganeshie8
Yes !
G = (4x^2 +3y^2)i+(3y^2+ 8z^2)j+(8z^2+ 4x^2)k curl(G) = <-16z, -8x, -6y> curl(G) at (5,5,5) = <-80, -40, -30> \[\int_C \vec{G}\cdot d\vec{r} = \iint_S \mathrm{curl}(G) \cdot \hat{n} dS \approx \iint_S \langle -80,-40,-30\rangle \cdot \langle 0,1,0\rangle dxdz\]
so just just (-40) * (.08) ? @ganeshie8
looks good!
cool
-3.200
wondering why they would ask for 3 decimal places
yeah let me know once you have the answers
i get -3.2
@ganeshie8 to bad that I can't check the answer :/
should the answer be negative?
yes our orientation and normal vector look good
I guess its time to more to a new question haha thank you so much for your help :) you are the best
