more help with green's theorem

OpenStudy (anonymous):

alright im up to this point and Im not sure what to put in for the bounds. I know I use the op surface and it would be an ellipse but I am not sure how to find that equation and what the bounds would be. or can I use the bottom surface and use the circle equation given?

this may or may not help, ....my scribblings in terms of limits you are projecting the ellipse onto the circle....so i think it simplifies considerably.

im still lost im not sure what you're doing with da

OpenStudy (anonymous):

why is it secgama?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can I solve for the positive root of y in the circle equation plug that in for the plane and use that as the projection?

OpenStudy (irishboy123):

you are projecting the area onto the xy plane. so you can say that \(da \cos \gamma = dx \, dy\) or \(da = \dfrac{dx \, dy}{\cos \gamma} = \sec \gamma \, dx \, dy\) https://i.gyazo.com/c4c40770961a72b24e5646536e73abcb.png

that's different from what we were shown for some reason our n doesn't have to be a unit vector as well so I don't have the sqrt(2)

OpenStudy (irishboy123):

let me scribble some stuff out, the latex is great but really time consuming....

I'll just get help from a tutor on monday

personal tutor is great way to operate, good luck

OpenStudy (phi):

you found the curl(F)= (0,-1,3) that is ok the plane z= 1+y we want to compute: \[ \int \int_S curl(\vec{F}) \cdot \hat{n} \ dS \] given z= f(x,y) , we can find \[ \hat{n} \ dS = <-f_x, -f_y, 1> dx\ dy \](note that the vector is not \( \hat{n} \) and \(dx \ dy\) is not dS see http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/mathematics/18-02-multivariable-calculus-fall-2007/video-lectures/lecture-28-divergence-theorem/ with f(x,y) = 1+y (i.e. this is the plane) <-fx, -fy, 1> is <0, -1, 1> and the integral becomes \[ \int \int_S curl(\vec{F}) \cdot \hat{n} \ dS \\ \int \int_S <0,-1,3>\cdot <0,-1,1> \ dx \ dy \\ 4 \int \int_S \ dx \ dy \] The bounds are the "shadow" of the surface S projected onto the x-y plane. In this case, the shadow is the unit circle, and we know the area will be \(\pi\). Thus the answer is \[ 4 \pi\]

OpenStudy (phi):

We could also do it this way: The equation of the plane in standard form is 0x -1y + 1z = 1 or (0,-1,1) dot P = 1 and the unit normal is \[ \hat{n}= \frac{<0,-1,1>}{\sqrt{2}} \] \[ \int \int_S curl(\vec{F}) \cdot \hat{n} \ dS \\ \int \int_S <0,-1,3> \cdot <0, -1,1>/\sqrt{2} \ dS \\ 2\sqrt{2} \int \int_S \ dS \] from z= 1+y where y varies from -1 to 1, we find the semi-major axis "a" of the ellipse is \( \sqrt{2}\) and the semi-minor axis "b" is 1. The area of an ellipse is \(a b \pi\) thus the area of the ellipse is \( \sqrt{2} \pi\) \[ \int \int_S \ dS = \sqrt{2} \pi \] and the answer is \[ 2\sqrt{2} \cdot \sqrt{2} \pi= 4 \pi \]
