Short answer

#tag_title#Step 2: Evaluate the double integral using Green's theorem#tag_content# According to Green's theorem, we have: \(\oint_{C} (2x^3 - y^3) d x+(x^3 + y^3) d y = \iint_D \left(\frac{\partial Q}{\partial x} - \frac{\partial P}{\partial y}\right)dA\) We've already calculated the partial derivatives as: \(\frac{\partial Q}{\partial x} = 3x^2\) \(\frac{\partial P}{\partial y} = -3y^2\) Now, we plug them into the equation: \(\oint_{C} (2x^3 - y^3) d x+(x^3 + y^3) d y = \iint_D \left(3x^2 - (-3y^2)\right)dA\) As the curve C is a circle with radius 1, we can convert the integral into polar coordinates: \(\iint_D \left(3(x^2 + y^2)\right)r dr d\theta\) The limits of integration for the circle are from \(0 \le r \le 1\) and \(0 \le \theta \le 2\pi\). Now we can perform the double integral: \(\iint_D \left(3(x^2 + y^2)\right)r dr d\theta = \int_0^1 \int_0^{2\pi} 3r^3 dr d\theta\) First, we perform the inner integral: \(\int_0^1 3r^3 dr = \left[\frac{3}{4}r^4\right]_0^1 = \frac{3}{4}\) Now, we perform the outer integral: \(\int_0^{2\pi} \frac{3}{4} d\theta = \frac{3}{4}\left[\theta\right]_0^{2\pi} = \frac{3}{4} (2\pi - 0) = \frac{3}{2}\pi\) So, the result is: \(\oint_{C} (2x^3 - y^3) d x+(x^3 + y^3) d y = \frac{3}{2}\pi\) d) \(\oint x^3(x^2 + y^2)^{-1} d x - xy^3(x^2 + y^2)^{-1} d y\) around the unit circle The steps would be similar to the previous parts: 1. Calculate the partial derivatives of P and Q 2. Evaluate the double integral using Green's theorem 3. Convert the integral into polar coordinates (if needed) 4. Solve the double integral 5. The result will be the value of the given line integral around the specified curve.

Step-by-step solution

Calculate partial derivatives of P and Q

Here, we have P(x, y) = ay and Q(x, y) = bx. Now, we calculate the partial derivatives required for Green's theorem: \(\frac{\partial Q}{\partial x} = b\) \(\frac{\partial P}{\partial y} = a\)

Evaluate the double integral using Green's theorem

According to Green's theorem, we have: \(\oint_{C} a y d x+b x d y = \iint_D (b - a)\,dA\) Since the integrand is a constant, this means that the integral is \(0\) for any simple closed curve C as long as the curve encloses no area. b) \(\oint e^{x} \sin y d x+e^{x} \cos y d y\) around the rectangle with vertices \((0,0),(1,0),\left(1, \frac{1}{2} \pi\right)\), \(\left(0, \frac{1}{2} \pi\right)\)

Calculate partial derivatives of P and Q

Here, we have P(x, y) = \(e^x \sin y\) and Q(x, y) = \(e^x \cos y\). Now, we calculate the partial derivatives required for Green's theorem: \(\frac{\partial Q}{\partial x} = e^x \cos y\) \(\frac{\partial P}{\partial y} = e^x \cos y\)

Evaluate the double integral using Green's theorem

According to Green's theorem, we have: \(\oint_{C} e^{x} \sin y d x+e^{x} \cos y d y = \iint_D \left(e^x \cos y - e^x \cos y\right)dA = 0\) c) \(\oint\left(2 x^{3}-y^{3}\right) d x+\left(x^{3}+y^{3}\right) d y\) around the circle \(x^{2}+y^{2}=1\)

Calculate partial derivatives of P and Q

Here, we have P(x, y) = \(2x^3 - y^3\) and Q(x, y) = \(x^3 + y^3\). Now, we calculate the partial derivatives required for Green's theorem: (Continue this pattern for each of the given line integrals, breaking down each part into clear, separate steps.)

Key concepts

Partial Derivatives

Partial derivatives are essential in calculus and play a significant role in applying Green's Theorem. They measure how a function changes as one of its input variables is varied, while all other input variables are kept constant. It is similar to slicing through the graph of the function along a particular axis. This concept is helpful in evaluating vector fields, as it helps determine how these fields behave.

In Green's Theorem, the concept of partial derivatives is used to transform a line integral around a closed curve into a double integral over the region bounded by the curve. Consider a function, \( P(x, y) \), where the partial derivative with respect to \( x \) is written as \( \frac{\partial P}{\partial x} \). Similarly, for another function \( Q(x, y) \), the partial derivative with respect to \( y \) is expressed as \( \frac{\partial Q}{\partial y} \). These partial derivatives form the core of the region's flux calculations.

When applying Green’s Theorem, the differences between these partial derivatives, \( \frac{\partial Q}{\partial x} - \frac{\partial P}{\partial y} \), help calculate the integral over the area inside a curve. Recognizing and calculating partial derivatives efficiently allows for a better understanding of physical phenomena, like circulation and area densities per unit length.

Line Integrals

Line integrals allow us to evaluate functions along a curve. They are commonly used to compute the work done by a force field or mass along a path. In the context of Green’s Theorem, line integrals transform computations from a curve to the region enclosed by that curve.

The notation \( \oint_C P \, dx + Q \, dy \) represents a line integral of a vector field around a closed curve \( C \), where \( P \) and \( Q \) are components of the vector field. Here, \( dx \) and \( dy \) are infinitesimal changes along the curve. This concept is beneficial when analyzing how vector fields interact with curves in two-dimensional spaces.

Using Green's Theorem, we can convert condition-laden line integrals into easier-to-evaluate double integrals when the curve is simple and closed. Understanding the conversion between line and double integrals is critical to simplifying complex calculations in electromagnetism, fluid dynamics, and other applied sciences.

Double Integrals

Double integrals are used to compute the volume under a surface in the two-dimensional coordinate system. In the realm of Green’s Theorem, they help us evaluate area-based fluxes and offer a more efficient way to calculate values over regions rather than lines.

When Green’s Theorem is applied, the line integral of a vector field around a closed curve \( C \) is represented as a double integral over the region \( D \) enclosed by \( C \). Mathematically, this is: \[ \oint_{C} P \, dx + Q \, dy = \iint_{D} \left( \frac{\partial Q}{\partial x} - \frac{\partial P}{\partial y} \right) \, dA \]Here, \( dA \) represents the infinitesimal area element, and the result is the total flux through the region.

Double integrals allow us to leverage surface functions to understand and solve practical problems in physics and engineering, such as heat distribution and material strength.

Closed Curves in the Plane

Closed curves in the plane are paths that enclose a region without self-intersecting. They are critical when applying Green’s Theorem, which simplifies line integrals over such paths into double integrals over the enclosed regions. Consider a circle or a rectangle; these are examples of simple closed curves.

In mathematics, when working with these paths, the properties of the curve define the region \( D \) enclosed by the curve \( C \). By applying Green's Theorem to a closed curve, one can change the focus from the perimeter to the area within, providing a clearer perspective of the problem.

Understanding closed curves allows one to effectively use Green’s Theorem to simplify calculations. By ensuring the curve is closed, we can directly relate the integral around the curve to the behavior of the field within the enclosed area, making it immensely useful in various scientific and engineering applications.
