Vector Integration Applications Gauss Theorem Solved Problems

1. State and prove Gauss’s divergence theorem.

Solution:

Gauss’s divergence theorem: If F is a differentiable vector point function and S is a closed surface enclosing a region V, then \(\int_S\)F. N dS \(\int_V\)  div F dV, where N is the outward drawn unit normal vector to S.

Proof: Let S be a closed surface. Let us choose the coordinate axes so that any line parallel to the axes meets the surface in almost two points. Let R be the projection of S on xy-plane.  Let S₁ and S₂ be the lower and upper parts of S.

Let z=f(x,y) and z = g(x, y) be the equations of S₁ and S₂ which can be put in the form f(x,y)≤z≤ g(x, y)
Let F = F₁i+F₂ j+F₃k where F_1, F₂, and F₃ are scalar point functions.

∴ \(\int_v \text{div} \mathbf{F} d V=\int_V \nabla \cdot \mathbf{F} d V=\iint_V\left(\frac{\partial F_1}{\partial x}+\frac{\partial F_2}{\partial y}+\frac{\partial F_3}{\partial z}\right) d V=\int_V \frac{\partial F_1}{\partial x} d V+\int_V \frac{\partial F_2}{\partial y}+\int_V \frac{\partial F_3}{\partial z} d V .\)

Now \(\int_V \frac{\partial F_3}{\partial z} d V=\iiint_V \frac{\partial F_3}{\partial z} d x d y d z=\iiint_R\left[F_3(x, y, z)\right]_f^g d x d y\)

⇒ \(\iint_R\left[F_3(x, y, g)-F_3(x, y, f)\right] d x d y .\)

For the upper part S₂, dx dy = dS cos γ = N . k dS, since the normal to S₂ makes an acute angle y with k.

∴ \(\iint_R F_3(x, y, g) d x d y=\int_{s_2} F_3 \mathbf{N} \cdot \mathbf{k} d S\)

For the lower part S₁ dx dy =- cos γ dS =− N . k dS, since the normal to S₁ makes an obtuse angle y with k.

∴ \(\iint_R F_3(x, y, f) d x d y=-\int_{s_1} F_3 \mathbf{N} . \mathbf{k} d S\)

⇒ \(\int_V \frac{\partial F_3}{\partial z} d V=\int_{s_2} F_3 \mathbf{N} . \mathbf{k} d S+\int_{s_1} F_3 \mathbf{N} \cdot \mathbf{k} d S=\int_S F_3 \mathbf{k} . \mathbf{N} d S\)

Similarly \(\int_V \frac{\partial F_2}{\partial y} d V=\int_S F_2 \mathbf{j} \cdot \mathbf{N} d S \text { and } \int_V \frac{\partial F_1}{\partial x} d V=\int_S F_1 \mathbf{i} \cdot \mathbf{N} d S\)

∴ \(\int_V\left(\frac{\partial F_1}{\partial x}+\frac{\partial F_2}{\partial y}+\frac{\partial F_3}{\partial z}\right) d V=\int_S F_1 \mathbf{i} \cdot \mathbf{N} d S+\int_S F_2 \mathbf{j} \cdot \mathbf{N} d S+\int_S F_3 \mathbf{k} \cdot \mathbf{N} d S\)

⇒ \(\int_V \nabla \cdot \mathbf{F} d V=\int_S\left(F_1 \mathbf{i}+F_2 \mathbf{j}+F_3 \mathbf{k}\right) \cdot \mathbf{N} d S \Rightarrow \int_V \nabla \cdot \mathbf{F} d V=\int_S \mathbf{F} \cdot \mathbf{N} d S\)

2. If F is a continuously differentiable vector point function and S is a closed surface enclosing a region V then prove that \(\int_S\)N×F dS=\(\int_V\) ∇×F dV.

Solution: Let f=a×F where a is any constant vector.

By Gauss’s divergence theorem \(\int_S\)f.N dS= \(\int_V\)∇.f dV.

⇒ \(\int_S(\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{F}) \cdot \mathbf{N} d S=\int_V \nabla \cdot(\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{F}) d V \Rightarrow \int_S \mathbf{a} \cdot(\mathbf{F} \times \mathbf{N}) d S=-\int_V \nabla \cdot(\mathbf{F} \times \mathbf{a}) d v\)

⇒ \(-\int_S \mathbf{a} \cdot(\mathbf{N} \times \mathbf{F}) d S=-\int_V(\nabla \times \mathbf{F}) \cdot \mathbf{a} d V \Rightarrow \mathbf{a} \cdot \int_S(\mathbf{N} \times \mathbf{F}) d S=\mathbf{a} \cdot \int_V \nabla \times \mathbf{F} d V\)

⇒ \(\int_S(\mathbf{N} \times \mathbf{F}) d S=\int_V \nabla \times \mathbf{F} d V\) [∵ a is any constant vector]

3. If φ  is a continuously differentiable scalar point function and S is a closed surface enclosing a region V then prove that \(\int_S\)N φ dS= \(\int_V\) ∇φ dV.

Solution: Let f=a φ where a is any constant vector.

By Gauss’s divergence theorem, \(\int_S \mathbf{f} \cdot \mathbf{N} d S=\int_V \nabla \cdot \mathbf{f} d V\)

⇒ \(\int_S a \varphi \cdot \mathbf{N} d S=\int_V \nabla \cdot \mathbf{a} \varphi d V \Rightarrow \int_S \mathbf{a} \cdot \varphi \mathbf{N} d S=\int_V \nabla \varphi \cdot \mathbf{a} d V\)

⇒ \(\mathbf{a} \cdot \int_S \varphi \mathbf{N} d S=\mathbf{a} \cdot \int_V \nabla \varphi d V \Rightarrow \int_S \varphi \mathbf{N} d S=\int_V \nabla \varphi d V\) [∵ a is any constant vector]

4. Apply Gauss’s theorem to prove that  \(\int_S\)r. N dS = 3 V.

Solution: \(\int_S\)r.NdS=\(\int_V\)div r dV=\(\int_V\)∇.r dV=\(\int_V\)3 dV=3V, where V is the volume of the region bounded by the closed surface S.

5. Prove that for any closed surface S, \(\iint_S\)N dS = 0.

Solution:\(\iint_S\)N dS=\(\iint_S\)N 1 dS=\(\int_V\)(∇ 1)dV=\(\int_V\)0 dV=0

6. For any closed surface S, prove that \(\iint_S\)Curl F . N dS = 0.

Solution: By Gauss’s  divergence theorem,

\(\iint_S\)F.N dS=\(\iint_S\)(∇×F).N dS=\(\int_V\)div(∇×F) dV=\(\int_V\)0 dV=0.

7. If S is any closed surface enclosing a volume V and F = xi + 2yj+ 3zk, prove that \(\iint_S\)F.N dS=6v.

Solution:  By Gauss’s divergence theorem,

∴ \(\iint_S \mathbf{F} \cdot \mathbf{N} d S=\int_V \nabla \cdot \mathbf{F} d V=\int_V\left[\frac{\partial}{\partial x}\{x\}+\frac{\partial}{\partial y}\{2 y\}+\frac{\partial}{\partial z}\{3 z\}\right] d V=\int_V(1+2+3) d V=6 V\)

8. If F = xi- 2yi + 3zk and S is a closed surface enclosing a volume V, show that \(\int_S\)F.N dS=2v.

Solution: 

By Gauss’s divergence theorem,

⇒ \(\int_S \mathbf{F} \cdot \mathbf{N} d S=\int_V \text{div} \mathbf{F} d V=\int_V(\nabla \cdot \mathbf{F}) d V=\int_V\left[\frac{\partial}{\partial x}\{x\}+\frac{\partial}{\partial y}\{-2 y\}+\frac{\partial}{\partial z}\{3 z\}\right] d V\)

⇒ \(\int_V(1-2+3) d V=2 \int_V d V=2 V\)

9. Computed \(\oint_S\)(ax²+by²+cz²) dS over the sphere x² +y² + z² = 1.

Solution: Let φ =x²+y²+z²-1

Normal vector to the surface, ∇φ =\(\mathbf{i} \frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial x}+\mathbf{j} \frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial y}+\mathbf{k} \frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial z}\)

=2xi+2yj+2zk

Unit normal vector, \(\mathbf{N}=\frac{2 x \mathbf{i}+2 y \mathbf{j}+2 z \mathbf{k}}{\sqrt{4 x^2+4 y^2+4 z^2}}=\frac{2 x \mathbf{i}+2 y \mathbf{j}+2 z \mathbf{k}}{2 \sqrt{x^2+y^2+z^2}}=x \mathbf{i}+y \mathbf{j}+z \mathbf{k}\)

⇒ \(\mathbf{F} \cdot \mathbf{N}=a x^2+b y^2+c z^2 \Rightarrow \mathbf{F} \cdot(x \mathbf{i}+y \mathbf{j}+z \mathbf{k})=a x^2+b y^2+c z^2 \Rightarrow \mathbf{F}=a x \mathbf{i}+b y \mathbf{j}+c z \mathbf{k}\)

⇒ \(\nabla \cdot \mathbf{F}=\frac{\partial}{\partial x}(a x)+\frac{\partial}{\partial y}(b y)+\frac{\partial}{\partial z}(c z)=a+b+c\)

Volume of the sphere \(x^2+y^2+z^2=1 \text { is } 4 \pi / 3\)

By Gauss’s divergence theorem,

⇒ \(\oint_S\left(a x^2+b y^2+c z^2\right) d S=\int_S \mathbf{F} \cdot \mathbf{N} d S=\int_V \nabla \cdot \mathbf{F} d V=\int_V(a+b+c) d V=(a+b+c) V\)

⇒ \((a+b+c) \frac{4}{3} \pi=\frac{4 \pi}{3}(a+b+c)\)

10. If F = axi + byj+ czk and a, b, c are constants, show that ∫F.N dS =\(\frac{4}{3} \pi\) (a + b + c) where S is the surface of the  unit sphere.

Solution:

Given

F = axi + byj+ czk and a, b, c are constants

∴ \(\nabla \cdot \mathbf{F}=\frac{\partial}{\partial x}\{a x\}+\frac{\partial}{\partial y}\{b y\}+\frac{\partial}{\partial z}\{c z\}=a+b+c\)

Volume of the sphere, \(V=\frac{4}{3} \pi(1)^3=\frac{4}{3} \pi\)

By Gauss’s divergence theorem, \(\int_S \mathbf{F} \cdot \mathbf{N} d S=\int_V \nabla \cdot \mathbf{F} d V=\int_V(a+b+c) d V\)

⇒ \((a+b+c) \int_V d V=(a+b+c) V=\frac{4}{3} \pi(a+b+c)\)

⇒ \(\left.=\int_{x=-2}^{x=2} \int_{y=-\sqrt{4-x^2}}^{y=\sqrt{4-x^2}} z^2\right]_{z=0}^{z=1} d x d y=\int_{x=-2}^{x=2} \int_{y=-\sqrt{4-x^2}}^{y=\sqrt{4-x^2}} 1 d x d y\)

⇒ \(\left.\int_{x=-2}^{x=2} y\right] _{y=-\sqrt{4-x^2}}^{y=\sqrt{4-x^2}} d x =\int_{x=-2}^{x=2} 2 \sqrt{4-x^2} d x=4 \int_0^2 \sqrt{4-x^2} d x\)

Solution: Given=x i− y j + (z²−1)k, Now F₁=x,F₂=−y,F₃=z−1

∴ \(\frac{\partial F_1}{\partial x}=1, \frac{\partial F_2}{\partial y}=-1, \frac{\partial F_3}{\partial z}=2 z . \text{div} \mathbf{F}=\nabla \cdot \mathbf{F}=\frac{\partial F_1}{\partial x}+\frac{\partial F_2}{\partial y}+\frac{\partial F_3}{\partial z}=1-1+2 z=2 z\)

Let \(F_1=x^3, F_2=x^2 y, F_3=x^2 z. \quad \frac{\partial F_1}{\partial x}=3 x^2, \frac{\partial F_2}{\partial y}=x^2, \frac{\partial F_3}{\partial z}=x^2\)

⇒ \(\frac{\partial F_1}{\partial x}+\frac{\partial F_2}{\partial y}+\frac{\partial F_3}{\partial z}=3 x^2+x^2+x^2=5 x^2\)

By Gauss’s divergence theorem \(\iint_S\left(x^3 d y d z+x^2 y d z d x+x^2 z d x d y\right)\)

⇒ \(\iiint_V 5 x^2 d x d y d z=4 \int_{x=0}^{x=a} \int_{y=0}^{y=\sqrt{a^2-x^2}} \int_{z=0}^{z=b} 5 x^2 d x d y d z\)

⇒ \(20 \int_{x=0}^{x=a} \int_{y=0}^{y=\sqrt{a^2-x^2}}\left[x^2 z\right]_{z=0}^{z=b} d x d y=20 b \int_{x=0}^a \int_{y=0}^{\sqrt{a^2-x^2}} x^2 d x d y\)

⇒ \(\left.20 b \int_0^a x^2 y\right]_0^{\sqrt{a^2-x^2}}=20 b \int_0^a x^2 \sqrt{a^2-x^2} d x\)

Put x = a sin θ

∴ dx = a cos θ dθ

x = 0 ⇒ θ = 0

x = a ⇒ θ = π/2

⇒ \(20 b \int_0^{\pi / 2} a^2 \sin ^2 \theta \sqrt{a^2-a^2 \sin ^2 \theta} a \cos \theta d \theta=20 a^4 b \int_0^{\pi / 2} \sin ^2 \theta \cos ^2 \theta d \theta\)

⇒ \(20 a^4 b \int_0^{\pi / 2} \sin ^2 \theta\left(1-\sin ^2 \theta\right) d \theta=20 a^4 b\left[\int_0^{\pi / 2} \sin ^2 \theta-\int_0^{\pi / 2} \sin ^4 \theta d \theta\right]\)

⇒ \(20 a^4 b\left[\frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{\pi}{2}-\frac{3}{4} \cdot \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{\pi}{2}\right]=20 a^4 b \cdot \frac{\pi}{16}=5 a^4 b \frac{\pi}{4}\)

Case (6):  For the faces CEGF, the outward normal, N = k, z = 3, dS = dx dy

⇒ \(\int_{S_6} \mathbf{F} \cdot \mathbf{N} d S=\int_{x=0}^{x=2} \int_{y=0}^{y=1}\left(2 x y \mathbf{i}+y z^2 \mathbf{j}+z x \mathbf{k}\right) \cdot \mathbf{k} d x d y\)

⇒ 0 + 0 + 0 + 6 + 18 + 6 = 30.

⇒ \(\int_V \nabla \cdot \mathbf{F} d V=\int_V\left[\frac{\partial}{\partial x}(2 x y)+\frac{\partial}{\partial y}\left(y z^2\right)+\frac{\partial}{\partial z}(x z)\right] d V=\int_V\left(2 y+z^2+x\right) d V\)

⇒ \(\int_{x=0}^{x=2} \int_{y=0}^{y=1} \int_{z=0}^{z=3}\left(x+2 y+z^2\right) d x d y d z=\int_{x=0}^{x=2} \int_{y=0}^{y=1}\left[x z+2 y z+\frac{z^3}{3}\right]_{z=1}^{z=3} d x d y\)

Let S  lie between the lines x=a, x=b,and y=c y=d.

Let y=f(x) be the curve C₁ (AEB) and y=g(x)  be the curve C₂ (ADB) where f(x)≤ g(x)

Consider \(\iint_S \frac{\partial P}{\partial y} d x d y=\int_{x=a}^{x=b} \int_{y=f(x)}^{y=g(x)}\left(\frac{\partial P}{\partial y} d y\right) d x\)

= \(=\int_{x=a}^{x=b}[P(x, y)]_{y=f(x)}^{y=g(x)} d x=\int_a^b[P(x, g(x))-P(x, f(x))] d x\)

= \(\int_a^b P(x, g) d x-\int_a^b P(x, f) d x=-\int_{C_1} P(x, y) d x-\int_{C_2} P(x, y) d x=-\int_{c_3} P d x\)

Similarly , we can prove that \(\iint_S\)\(\left(\frac{\partial Q}{\partial x}\right)\)dx dy=\(\int_C\)dy.

∴\(\int_C\) P dx + Q dy = \(\iint_S\left(\frac{\partial Q}{\partial x}-\frac{\partial P}{\partial y}\right)\)dx dy

27. Evaluate \(\oint_C\)(x dy-y dx) around the circle C where C is x² +y²=1.

Solution:

By Green’s theorem, \(\int_c P d x+Q d y=\iint_S\left(\frac{\partial Q}{\partial x}-\frac{\partial P}{\partial y}\right) d x d y\)

Put P = -y, Q = x. Then \(\frac{\partial Q}{\partial x}=1, \frac{\partial P}{\partial y}=-1\)

∴ \(\int_C x d y-y d x=\iint_S[1-(-1)] d x d y=2 \iint_S d x d y\)

= \(2 \text { (Area of the surface } S \text { ) }=2 \pi(1)^2=2 \pi\)

28. If f and g are two continuous and differentiable scalar point functions over the region V enclosed by the surface S, then prove that

1. \(\int_V\left[f \nabla^2 g+\nabla f \cdot \nabla g\right] d V\)=\(=\int_S(f \nabla g) \cdot N d S\)
2. \(\int_V\left(f \nabla^2 g-g \nabla^2 f\right) d V\)=\(=\int_S(f \nabla g-g \nabla f) \cdot \mathbf{N} d S\)

Solution:

1. Let F = f ∇g.

Then \(\nabla \cdot \mathbf{F}=\nabla \cdot(f \nabla g)=f(\nabla \cdot \nabla g)+\nabla f \cdot \nabla g=f \nabla^2 g+\nabla f \cdot \nabla g\)

By Gauss’s divergence theorem, \(\int_V \nabla \cdot \mathbf{F} d V=\int_S \mathbf{F} \cdot \mathbf{N} d S\)

⇒ \(\int_V\left[f \nabla^2 g+\nabla f \cdot \nabla g\right] d V=\int_S(f \nabla g) \cdot \mathbf{N} d S\)

2. From (1); \(\int_V\left(f \nabla^2 g+\nabla f \cdot \nabla g\right) d V=\int_S(f \nabla g) \cdot \mathbf{N} d S\) → (1)

Interchanging f and g in (1), we get \(\int_V\left(g \nabla^2 f+\nabla g \cdot \nabla f\right) d V=\int_s(g \nabla f) \cdot \mathbf{N} d S\) → (2)

(1) – (2) ⇒ \(\int_V\left(f \nabla^2 g-g \nabla^2 f\right) d V=\int_S(f \nabla g-g \nabla f) \cdot \mathbf{N} d S\)

29. Show that the area bounded by a simple closed curve C is given by ½ \(\oint_C\) x dy-y dx and hence find area of ellipse x=a cos θ, y= b sin θ ,0≤θ≤2π.

Solution:

Here P = -y, Q = x. Then \(\frac{\partial Q}{\partial x}=1, \frac{\partial P}{\partial y}=-1\)

By Green’s theorem \(\frac{1}{2} \int_C x d y-y d x=\frac{1}{2} \int_C P d x+Q d y=\frac{1}{2} \iint_S\left(\frac{\partial Q}{\partial x}-\frac{\partial P}{\partial y}\right) d x d y\)

= \(\frac{1}{2} \iint_S[1-(-1)] d x d y=\iint_S d x d y\) = Area of the surface bounded by the curve C.

Equations of ellipse are x = a cos θ, y = b sin θ, 0 ≤ θ ≤ 2π

∴ \(\frac{d x}{d \theta}=-a \sin \theta, \frac{d y}{d \theta}=b \cos \theta\)

∴ Area of the ellipse = \(\frac{1}{2} \int_c x d y-y d x=\frac{1}{2} \int_0^{2 \pi}[(a \cos \theta)(b \cos \theta) {-}(b \sin \theta)(-a \sin \theta)] d \theta\)

= \(\frac{1}{2} \int_0^{2 \pi}\left(a b \cos ^2 \theta+a b \sin ^2 \theta\right) d \theta=\frac{a b}{2} \int_0^{2 \pi} d \theta=\frac{a b}{2}(2 \pi)=\pi a b \text { sq.unit }\)

By theorem \(\int_c P d x+Q d y=\iint_s\left(\frac{\partial Q}{\partial x}-\frac{\partial P}{\partial y}\right) d x d y\)

Let \(P=x^2-\cosh y, Q=y+\sin x \text {.. Then } \frac{\partial P}{\partial y}=-\sinh y, \frac{\partial Q}{\partial x}=\cos x\)

The limits of the surface of integration are x = 0 to x = π and y = 0 to y = 1.

∴ \(\int_C\left(x^2-\cosh y\right) d x+(y+\sin x) d y=\int P d x+Q d y\)

= \(\iint_S\left(\frac{\partial Q}{\partial x}-\frac{\partial P}{\partial y}\right) d x d y=\int_{x=0}^{x=\pi} \int_{y=0}^{y=1}(\cos x+\sinh y) d x d y\)

= \(\int_{x=0}^{x=\pi}[y \cos x+\cosh y]_{y=0}^{y=1} d x=\int_0^{\pi}(\cos x+\cosh 1-1) d x\)

= \([\sin x+x \cosh 1-x]_{x=0}^{x=\pi}=\pi \cosh 1 – \pi=\pi(\cosh 1-1)=\pi\left(\frac{e+e^{-1}}{2}-1\right)\)

By Green’s theorem, \(\int_C\left(x^2+y^2\right) d x+3 x y^2 d y=\iint_S\left(3 y^2-2 y\right) d x d y\)

= \(\int_{x=-2}^{x=2} \int_{y=-\sqrt{4-x^2}}^{y=\sqrt{4-x^2}}\left(3 y^2-2 y\right) d x d y=\int_{x=-2}^{x=2}\left[y^3-y^2\right]_{y=-\sqrt{4-x^2}}^{y=\sqrt{4-x^2}} d x=\int_{x=-2}^{x=2} 2\left(4-x^2\right)^{3 / 2} d x\)

=\(-\frac{2}{\pi}[x(x-\cos x)]_{0}^{\pi /2}-\int_0^{\pi / 2}(x-\cos x) d x\)

= \(-\frac{2}{\pi}\left[\frac{\pi}{2}\left(\frac{\pi}{2}\right)-\left(\frac{x^2}{2}-\sin x\right)_0^{\pi / 2} \right]=-\frac{2}{\pi}\left[\frac{\pi^2}{4}-\frac{\pi^2}{8}+1\right]=-\frac{\pi}{4}-\frac{2}{\pi}\)

41. State and prove Stake’s theorem.

Solution: 

Stake’s theorem

Let S be a surface bounded by a closed non-intersecting curve C. If F is any differentiable vector point function, then

\(\int_C\)F.dr= \(\int_S\) curl F.Nds, where N is the outward drawn unit normal vector to S and C is traversed in the positive direction.

proof: Let S be a surface which is such that its projection on xy,yz,zx or y=h(z,x) where f,g,h are simple valued continuous and differentiable functions. Let F=F₁i+F₂j+F₃k.

Then curl F =∇×F=∇ × (F₁i + F₂j + F₃k)

=∇ × F₁i × F₂j × F₃k

Now \(\nabla \times F_1 \mathbf{I}=\left|\begin{array}{ccc}
\mathbf{I} & \mathbf{j} & \mathbf{k} \\
\frac{\partial}{\partial x} & \frac{\partial}{\partial y} & \frac{\partial}{\partial z} \\
F_1 & 0 & 0
\end{array}\right|=\frac{\partial F_1}{\partial z} \mathbf{J}-\frac{\partial F_1}{\partial y} \mathbf{k}\)

⇒ \(\left(\nabla \times F_1 \mathbf{I}\right) \cdot \mathbf{N}=\left[\frac{\partial F_1}{\partial z}(\mathbf{j} \cdot \mathbf{N})-\frac{\partial F_1}{\partial y}(\mathbf{k} \cdot \mathbf{N})\right]\) (1)

Let z = f(x,y) be the equation of S.

For any point in S, r = xi + yj + zk = xi + yi + f(x,y)k…

∴ \(\frac{\partial \mathbf{r}}{\partial y}=\mathbf{j}+\frac{\partial z}{\partial y} \mathbf{k} \text {. Since } \frac{\partial \mathbf{r}}{\partial y} \text { is the tangent vector to } S, \mathbf{N} \cdot \frac{\partial \mathbf{r}}{\partial y}=0\)

⇒ \(\mathbf{N} \cdot \mathbf{J}+(\mathbf{N} \cdot \mathbf{k}) \frac{\partial z}{\partial y}=0 \Rightarrow \mathbf{N} \cdot \mathbf{j}=-(\mathbf{N} \cdot \mathbf{k}) \frac{\partial z}{\partial y}\)

From (1); \(\left(\nabla \times F_1 \mathbf{i}\right) \cdot \mathbf{N}=-(\mathbf{N} \cdot \mathbf{k}) \frac{\partial F_1}{\partial z} \cdot \frac{\partial z}{\partial y}-(\mathbf{N} \cdot \mathbf{k}) \frac{\partial F_1}{\partial y}\)

∴ \(\left[\left(\nabla \times F_1 \mathbf{i}\right) \cdot \mathbf{N}\right] d S=-\left(\frac{\partial F_1}{\partial y}+\frac{\partial F_1}{\partial z} \cdot \frac{\partial z}{\partial y}\right)(\mathbf{N} \cdot \mathbf{k}) d S\)

= \(-\frac{\partial}{\partial y} F_1(x, y, z) \cos \gamma d S=-\frac{\partial F_1}{\partial y} d x d y\)

Let R be the projection of S on xy-plane. Then

∴ \(\int_S\left(\nabla \times F_1 \mathbf{i}\right) \cdot \mathbf{N} d S=\int_R \int-\frac{\partial F_1}{\partial y} d x d y=\int_C F_1 d x\), by green’s theorem

Similarly \(\int_S\left(\nabla \times F_2 \mathbf{j}\right) \cdot \mathbf{N} d S=\int_c F_2 d y \text { and } \int_S\left(\nabla \times F_3 \mathbf{k}\right) \cdot \mathbf{N} d S=\int_c F_3 d z\)

∴ \(\int_S \nabla \times\left(F_1 \mathbf{i}+F_2 \mathbf{j}+F_3 \mathbf{k}\right) \cdot \mathbf{N} d S=\int_c F_1 d x+F_2 d y+F_3 d z\)

∴ \(\int_S(\nabla \times F) \cdot \mathbf{N} d S=\int_c F \cdot d r\)

42. Prove by Stake’s theorem curl grad φ = 0.

Solution:  Let be a  surface enclosed by a simple closed curve C.

∴ By stoke’s theorem, \(\int_s(\text{curl} \text{grad} \varphi) \cdot \mathbf{N} d S\)

= \(\int_s[\nabla \times(\nabla \varphi)] \cdot \mathbf{N} d S=\int_c \nabla \varphi \cdot d \mathbf{r}=\int_c\left(\mathbf{i} \frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial x}+\mathbf{j} \frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial y}+\mathbf{k} \frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial z}\right) \cdot(\mathbf{i} d x+\mathbf{j} d y+\mathbf{k} d y)\)

= \(\left.\int_C\left(\frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial x} d x+\frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial y} d y+\frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial z} d z\right)=\int_C d \varphi=\varphi\right]_P^P=0\)

∴ \(\int_S(\text{curl} \text{grad} \varphi) \cdot \mathbf{N} d S=0 \Rightarrow \text{curl}(\text{grad} \varphi)=0\)

43. Find \(\int_C\)T .dr where T is the unit tangent vector and C is the unit circle in the xy-plane with centre at the origin.

Solution:  By stokes theorem ,\(\int_C\)T.dr=\(\int_S\)(curl T).N dS=\(\int_S\)(∇×T).N dS=\(\int_S\)0 dS=0.

44. Prove that \(\oint_C\)r.dr = 0.

Solution:  By stokes theorem ,\(\int_C\)T.dr=\(\int_S\)(curl r).N dS=\(\int_S\)0. N dS=0.

45. By Stoke’s theorem prove that div curl F = 0.

Solution:  Let S be the surface enclosed by a simple closed curve C

∴ \(\int_s \text{div} \text{curl} \mathbf{F} d S=\int \nabla \cdot \nabla \times \mathbf{F} d S=\int_s \Sigma \mathbf{i} \frac{\partial}{\partial x}(\nabla \times \mathbf{F}) d S=\int_S \Sigma \frac{\partial}{\partial x}[\mathbf{i} \cdot(\nabla \times \mathbf{F})] d S\)

= \(\Sigma \frac{\partial}{\partial x} \int_S(\nabla \times F) \cdot i d S=\Sigma \frac{\partial}{\partial x} \int_C\left(F_2 d y+F_3 d z\right)=0\)

∴ div curl F = 0.

46. Verify Stoke’s theorem to evaluate \(\int_C\)xy dx + xy² dy, where C is the square in the  xy-plane with vertices (1, 0), (- 1, 0), (0, 1), (0,- 1)

.Solution:

Let F = \(x y \mathbf{i}+x y^2 \mathbf{j} . \text{curl} \mathbf{F}=\left|\begin{array}{ccc}

⇒ \(\int_c x y d x+x y^2 d y=\oint_C \mathbf{F} \cdot d \mathbf{r}=\int_s \nabla \times \mathbf{F} \cdot \mathbf{N} d S=\int_S\left(y^2-x\right) \mathbf{k} \cdot \mathbf{N} d S\)

Since k. N ds = dx dy and R is the region ABCD in xy-plane,

We have \(\int_S\left(y^2-x\right) \mathbf{k} \cdot \mathbf{N} d S=\iint_R\left(y^2-x\right) d x d y\)

Equation to \(\stackrel{\leftrightarrow}{A B} \text { is } \frac{x}{1}+\frac{y}{1}=1 \Rightarrow y=1-x\)

Equation to \(\stackrel{\leftrightarrow}{B C} \text { is } \frac{x}{-1}+\frac{y}{1}=1 \Rightarrow y=1+x\)

Equation to \(\stackrel{\leftrightarrow}{C D} \text { is } \frac{x}{-1}+\frac{y}{-1}=1 \Rightarrow y=-1-x\)

Equation to \(\stackrel{\leftrightarrow}{D A} \text { is } \frac{x}{1}+\frac{y}{-1}=1 \Rightarrow y=x-1\)

⇒ \(\iint_R\left(y^2-x\right) d x d y=\int_{x=0}^{x=1} \int_{y=0}^{y=1-x}\left(y^2-x\right) d x d y+\int_{x=-1}^{x=0} \int_{y=0}^{y=1+x}\left(y^2-x\right) d x d y\)

+\(\int_{-1}^0\left[\frac{(1+x)^3}{3}-x-x^2\right] d x-\int_0^1\left[\frac{(x-1)^3}{3}-x^2+x\right] d x\)

= \(\left[\frac{(1-x)^4}{-12}-\frac{x^2}{2}+\frac{x^3}{3}\right]_0^1+\left[\frac{(1+x)^4}{12}-\frac{x^2}{2}-\frac{x^3}{3}\right]_{-1}^0\)

+\(\left[\frac{(1+x)^4}{12}-\frac{x^2}{2}-\frac{x^3}{3}\right]_{-1}^0-\left[\frac{(x-1)^4}{12}-\frac{x^3}{2}+\frac{x^2}{2}\right]_0^1\)

= \(\left[0-\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{12}\right]+\left[\frac{1}{12}-0-0-0+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{3}\right]\)

+\(\left[\frac{1}{12}-0-0-0+\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{3}\right]-\left[0-\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{12}+0-0\right]\)

Case (1): Line integral along AB: y = 1-x, dy = -dx, x varies from 1 to 0.

∴ \(\int_{C_1} x y d x+x y^2 d y=\int_1^0 x(1-x) d x+x(1-x)^2(-d x)=\int_1^0\left(x-x^2-x+2 x^2-x^3\right) d x\)

= \(\int_1^0\left(x^2-x^3\right) d x=\left[\frac{x^3}{3}-\frac{x^4}{4}\right]_1^0=-\left[\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{4}\right]=-\frac{1}{12}\)

Case (2): Line integral along BC: y = 1+x, dy = dx, x varies from 0 to -1.

∴ \(\int_{C_2} x y d x+x y^2 d y=\int_0^{-1} x(1+x) d x+x(1+x)^2 d x=\int_0^{-1}\left(x+x^2+x+2 x^2+x^3\right) d x\)

= \(\int_0^{-1}\left(2 x+3 x^2+x^3\right) d x=\left[x^2+x^3+\frac{x^4}{4}\right]_0^1=1-1+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{4}\)

Case (3): Line integral along CD: y = -1, dy = -dx, x varies from -1 to 0.

∴ \(\int_{C_3} x y d x+x y^2 d y=\int_{-1}^0 x(-1-x) d x+x(-1-x)^2(-d x)\)

=\(\int_{-1}^0\left(-x-x^2-x-2 x^2-x^3\right) d x\)

= \(-\int_{-1}^0\left(2 x+3 x^2+x^3\right) d x=-\left[x^2+x^3+\frac{x^4}{4}\right]_0^{-1}=1-1+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{4}\)

Case (4): Line integral along DA: y = x-1, dy = dx, x varies from 0 to 1.

∴ \(\int_{C_4} x y d x+x y^2 d y=\int_0^{1} x(x-1) d x+x(x-1)^2 d x=\int_0^{1}\left(x^2-x+x^3-2 x^2+x\right) d x\)

= \(\int_0^1\left(x^3-x^2\right) d x=\left[\frac{x^4}{4}-\frac{x^3}{3}\right]_0^1=\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{3}=-\frac{1}{12}\)

∴ \(\int_S\)xy dx+xy² dy=1/12+1/4+1/4−1/12=1/3

∴  Stoke’s theorem is verified.

47. Verify Stoke’s theorem for the function F =x²i + xy j integrated round the square in the plane z= 0 whose sides are along the line x = 0, y = 0, x = a, y = a.

Solution:

∴ \({F}=x^2 \mathbf{i}+x y \mathbf{j} . \quad \text{curl} \mathbf{F}=\left|\begin{array}{ccc}
\mathbf{i} & \mathbf{j} & \mathbf{k} \\
\frac{\partial}{\partial x} & \frac{\partial}{\partial y} & \frac{\partial}{\partial z} \\
x^2 & x y & 0
\end{array}\right|=\mathbf{i}(0-0)-\mathbf{j}(0-0)+\mathbf{k}(y-0)=y \mathbf{k}\)

F. dr = (x2i + xyj) . (dx i + dy j + dz k) = x2 dx + xy dy

Let N be the unit normal vector to the surface of the square.

By Stoke’s theorem \(\int_S \boldsymbol{F} \cdot d \mathbf{r}=\int_S \text{cur} l \boldsymbol{F} \cdot \mathbf{N} d S\)

Since the surface of the square lies in the xy-plane, N = k.

⇒ \(\int_S \text{curl} \mathbf{F} \cdot \mathbf{N}dS =\int_S y k \cdot{k} d S=\int_S y d S=\int_0^a \int_0^a y d x d y\)

=\(\int_0^a\left[\frac{y^2}{2} \right]_0^a d x=\int_0^a \frac{a^2}{2} d x=\left[\frac{a^2 x}{2}\right]_0^a=\frac{a^3}{2}.\)

Case (1): Along the side OA: y = 0 and x varies from 0 to a.

Case (2): Along the side AB: x = a, dx = 0 and y varies from 0 to a.

Case (3): Along the side BC: y = a, dy = 0 and x varies from a to 0.

Case (4): Along the side CO: x = 0, y varies from a to 0.

∴ \(\int_C \mathbf{F} \cdot d \mathbf{r}=\int_{c_1} \mathbf{F} \cdot d \mathbf{F}+\int_{c_2} \mathbf{F} \cdot d \mathbf{r}+\int_{c_3} \mathbf{F} \cdot d \mathbf{r}+\int_{c_4} \mathbf{F} \cdot d \mathbf{r}=\frac{a^3}{3}+\frac{a^3}{2}-\frac{a^3}{3}+0=\frac{a^3}{2}\)

=\(\int_S\) curl F.NdS

Solution:

F = y² i + x² j – (x + z) k.

∴ \(\nabla \times \mathbf{F}=\left|\begin{array}{ccc}
\mathbf{i} & \mathbf{j} & \mathbf{k} \\
\frac{\partial}{\partial x} & \frac{\partial}{\partial y} & \frac{\partial}{\partial z} \\
y^2 & x^2 & -x-z
\end{array}\right|=\mathbf{i}(0-0)-\mathbf{j}(-1-0)+\mathbf{k}(2 x-2 y)=\mathbf{j}+(2 x-2 y) \mathbf{k}\)

Let N be the unit normal vector to the surface of the triangle.

Since the triangle lies in xy-plane, N=k, and dS=dx dy.

In xy -plane, the vertices of the triangle are O(0,0), A(1,0), and B(1,1).

By Stokes theorem,

∴ \(\int_C \mathbf{F} \cdot d \mathbf{r}=\int_S(\nabla \times \mathbf{F}) \cdot \mathbf{N} d S=\int_S[\mathbf{j}+(2 x-2 y) \mathbf{k}] \cdot \mathbf{k} d S\)

= \(\iint_R(2 x-2 y) d x d y=\int_{x=0}^{x=1} \int_{y=0}^{y=x}(2 x-2 y) d x d y\) [∵ Along OB, x = y]

= \(\left.=\int_{x=0}^{x=1}\left[2 x y-y^2\right]{ }_{y=0}^{y=x} d x=\int_0^1\left(2 x^2-x^2\right) d x=\int_0^1 x^2 d x=\frac{x^3}{3}\right]_0^1=\frac{1}{3}\)

∴ \(\int_C \mathbf{F} \cdot d \mathbf{r}=\int_{O A} \mathbf{F} \cdot d \mathbf{r}+\int_{A B} \mathbf{F} \cdot d \mathbf{r}+\int_{B O} \mathbf{F} \cdot d \mathbf{r}\)

1. Along OA, y = 0, z = 0, dy = 0, dz = 0, x varies from 0 to 1

∴ \(\int_{O A} \mathbf{F} \cdot d \mathbf{r}=\int_0^{1} y^2 d x=0\)

2. Along AB, x = 1, z = 0, dx = 0, dz = 0, y varies from 0 to 1

∴ \(\left.\int_{A B} \mathbf{F} \cdot d \mathbf{r}=\int_0^1 x^2 d y=\int_0^1 d y=y\right]_0^1=1\)

3. Along BO, x = y, z = 0, dx = dy and x varies from 1 to 0.

∴ \(\left.\int_{B O} \mathbf{F} \cdot d \mathbf{r}=\int_1^0 y^2 d x+x^2 d y=\int_1 x^2 d x+x^2 d x=\int_1 2 x^2 d x=\frac{2 x^{30}}{3}\right]_1=-\frac{2}{3}\)

∴ \(\int_C F \cdot d \mathbf{F}=0+1-\frac{2}{3}=\frac{1}{3}\)

∴ Stoke’s theorem is verified.

49. Verify Stoke’s theorem for \(\oint_C\) F =- y³i + x³j,  where S is the circular disc x² +y² ≤ 1, z= 0.

Solution:  F=−y³i+x³j.

The boundary of C of S is a circle in xy -plane, x² +y²= 1, z=0

The parametric equations are x=cos θ,y=sin θ,z=0 where 0≤ θ≤2π.

∴ \(\int_c \mathbf{F} \cdot d \mathbf{r}=\int_c-y^3 d x+x^3 d y=\int_{\theta=0}^{\theta=2 \pi}-\sin ^3 \theta(-a \sin \theta) d \theta+\cos ^3 \theta(a \cos \theta) d \theta\)

Put x = sin θ

∴ dx = cos θ dθ

x = 0 ⇒ θ = 0

x = 1 ⇒ θ = π/2

= \(\int_0^{2 \pi}\left(\cos ^4 \theta+\sin ^4 \theta\right) d \theta=\int_0^{2 \pi}\left[\left(\cos ^2 \theta+\sin ^2 \theta\right)^2-2 \cos ^2 \theta \sin ^2 \theta\right] d \theta\)

= \(\int_0^{2 \pi}\left[1-\frac{1}{2} \sin ^2 2 \theta\right] d \theta=\int_0^{2 \pi}\left[1-\frac{1-\cos 4 \theta}{4}\right] d \theta\)

= \(\int_0^{2 \pi}\left[\frac{3+\cos 4 \theta}{4}\right] d \theta=\left[\frac{3 \theta}{4}+\frac{\sin 4 \theta}{16}\right]_0^{2 \pi}=\left[\frac{3 \pi}{2}+0\right]=\frac{3 \pi}{2}\)

∴ \(\nabla \times \mathbf{F}=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}

Let R be the projection of S in the xy-plane.

∴ \(\int_S(\nabla \times \mathbf{F}) \cdot \mathbf{N} d S=\iint_R 3\left(x^2+y^2\right) \mathbf{k} \cdot \mathbf{k} d x d y=3 \iint_R\left(x^2+y^2\right) d x d y\)

= \(3 \int_{x=-1}^{x=1} \int_{y=-\sqrt{1-x^2}}^{y=\sqrt{1-x^2}}\left(x^2+y^2\right) d x d y=12 \int_{x=0}^{x=1} \int_{y=0}^{y=\sqrt{1-x^2}}\left(x^2+y^2\right) d x d y\)

∴ \(\int_C \mathbf{F} \cdot d \mathbf{r}=\int_S(\nabla \times \mathbf{F}) \cdot \mathbf{N} d S\)

∴ Stoke’s theorem is verified.

50. Verify Stoke’s theorem for F = (2x-y) i -yz² j -y²zk, where S is the upper half surface of the sphere x² +y² +z²= 1 and C is its boundary.

Solution: The boundary C os S is a circle in xy-plane, i.e…,  x² +y² +z²= 1 z=0.

The parametric equations are x=cos t,y= sin t, 0≤t≤2π

F=(2x-y)i-yz²j+y²zk

r=xi+yj+zk⇒dr=dxi+dyj+dzk

F.dr=(2x-y)dx-yz² dy+y²z dz=(2cos t-sin t) (-sin t)(dt)

=(sin² t-2 cos t sin t)dt=(sin² t-sin 2t)dt.

∴ \(\int_C \mathbf{F} \cdot d \mathbf{r}=\int_0^{2 \pi}\left(\sin ^2 t-\sin 2 t\right) d t=4 \int_0^{\pi / 2} \sin ^2 t d t+\left[\frac{\cos 2 t}{2}\right]_0^{2 \pi}\)

= \(4 \cdot \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{\pi}{2}+\frac{1}{2}[\cos 4 \pi-\cos 0]=\pi+\frac{1}{2}(1-1)=\pi\)

Also \(\nabla \times \mathbf{F}=\left|\begin{array}{ccc}

2 x-y & -y z^2 & -y^2 z
\end{array}\right|=\mathbf{i}(0-0)-\mathbf{j}(0-0)+\mathbf{k}(0+1)=\mathbf{k}\)

Let R be the projection of S in the xy-plane. Then k. N dS = dx dy.

∴ \(\int_S(\nabla \times \mathbf{F}) \cdot \mathbf{N} d S=\int_S \mathbf{k} \cdot \mathbf{N} d S=\iint_R d x d y\)

= \(4 \int_{x=0}^{x=1} \int_{y=0}^{y=\sqrt{1-x^2}} d x d y=4 \int_{x=0}^{x=1}[y]{ }_{y=0}^{y=\sqrt{1-x^2}} d x=4 \int_0^1 \sqrt{\left(1-x^2\right)} d x\)

= \(4\left[\frac{x}{2} \sqrt{1-x^2}+\frac{1}{2} \text{Sin}^{-1} x\right]_0^1=4\left[\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{\pi}{2}\right]=\pi\)

∴ \(\int_C \mathbf{F} \cdot d \mathbf{r}=\int_S(\nabla \times \mathbf{F}) \cdot \mathbf{N} d S\)

∴ Stoke’s theorem is verified.

51. Verify Stoke’s theorem for A = 2 yi + 3xj− z² k where S is the upper half surface of the sphere x²+y² + z² = 9 and C is its boundary.

Solution: The boundary Cof S is a circle in xy-plane  is the circle  x²+y²=9,z=0

The parametric equations are x=3 cos θ,y=3 sin θ , z=0

⇒dx =− 3 sin θ dθ ,dy =3 cos θ dθ,dz=0

∴ \(\int_C\)A.dr=\(\int_C\)(2yi+3xj−z²k).(dxi+dyj+dzk)

= \(\int_c 2 y d x+3 x d y-z d z=\int_0^{2 \pi} 2(3 \sin \theta)(-3 \sin \theta d \theta)+3(3 \cos \theta)(3 \cos \theta d \theta)-0\)

= \(\int_0^{2 \pi}\left[-18 \sin ^2 \theta+27 \cos ^2 \theta\right] d \theta=\int_0^{2 \pi}\left(27-45 \sin ^2 \theta\right) d \theta\)

= \(27(2 \pi-0)-45 \times 4 \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{\pi}{2}=54 \pi-45 \pi=9 \pi\)

∴ \(\nabla \times \mathbf{A}=\left|\begin{array}{lll}
\mathbf{i} & \mathbf{j} & \mathbf{k} \\
\frac{\partial}{\partial x} & \frac{\partial}{\partial y} & \frac{\partial}{\partial z} \\
2 y & 3 x & -z^2
\end{array}\right|=\mathbf{i}(0-0)-\mathbf{j}(0-0)+\mathbf{k}(3-2)=\mathbf{k}\)

Let R be the projection of S in the xy-plane.

∴ \(\int_S(\nabla \times \mathbf{A}) \cdot \mathbf{N} d S=\iint_R(\mathbf{k} \cdot \mathbf{N}) d S=\iint_R d x d y\)

= \(\int_{x=-3}^{x=3} \int_{y=-\sqrt{9-x^2}}^{y=\sqrt{9-x^2}} d x d y=4 \int_{x=0}^{x=3} \int_{y=0}^{y=\sqrt{9-x^2}} d x d y\)

∴ \(\int_S(\nabla \times \mathbf{A}) \cdot \mathbf{N} d S=\int_c \mathbf{A} \cdot d \mathbf{r}\)

∴ Stoke’s theorem is verified.

52. Apply Stoke’s theorem to evaluate\(\int_C\) (y dx + z dy+x dz) where C is the curve of intersection of x²+ y² + z²= a² and x + z =a.

Solution:  

For the sphere x² + y² + z² = a², Centre O = (0, 0, 0), radius = a.

Let A be the centre and r be the radius of the circle of intersection of x² + y² + z² = a² and x + z = a.

∴ \(O A=\left|\frac{0+0-a}{\sqrt{2}}\right|=\frac{a}{\sqrt{2}}\)

⇒ \(r^2=a^2-O A^2=a^2-\frac{a^2}{2}=\frac{a^2}{2} \Rightarrow r=\frac{a}{\sqrt{2}}\)

Since the plane of the circle is perpendicular to the y-axis, the vector normal to the plane is j.  ∴ N = j.

Let F = yi + zj + xk

∴ \(\nabla \times \mathbf{F}=\left|\begin{array}{ccc}
\mathbf{i} & \mathbf{j} & \mathbf{k} \\
\frac{\partial}{\partial x} & \frac{\partial}{\partial y} & \frac{\partial}{\partial z} \\
y & z & x
\end{array}\right|=\mathbf{i}(0-1)-\mathbf{j}(1-0)+\mathbf{k}(0-1)\)

= – i – j – k

By stoke’s theorem, \(\int_C(y d x+z d y+x d z)=\int_C \mathbf{F} \cdot d \mathbf{r}=\int_S(\nabla \times \mathbf{F}) \cdot \mathbf{N} d S\)

= \(\int_S(-\mathbf{i}-\mathbf{j}-\mathbf{k}) \cdot \mathbf{j} d S=\int_S(-1) d S=-S=-(\text { Area of the circle })={-}\left(\pi a^2 / 2\right)\)

Solution:  The boundary C of S is a circle in xy-plane, i.e x² +y² =1,z=0.

The parametric equations are x=cos t, y=sint, 0≤t ≤2π.

F = (2x – y)i – y z j + y z k.

r = xi + yj + zk ⇒ dr = dxi + dyj + dzk.

= \(\mathbf{F} \cdot d \mathbf{r}=(2 x-y) d x-y z^2 d y+y^2 z d z=(2 \cos t-\sin t)(-\sin t)(d t)\)

= \(\left(\sin ^2 t-2 \cos t \sin t\right) d t=\left(\sin ^2 t-\sin 2 t\right) d t\)

By Stoke’s Theorem,

∴ \(\int_S(\nabla \times \mathbf{F}) \cdot \mathbf{N} d s=\int_C \mathbf{F} \cdot d \mathbf{r}=\int_0^{2 \pi}\left(\sin ^2 t-\sin 2 t\right) d t=4 \int_0^{\pi / 2} \sin ^2 t d t+\left[\frac{\cos 2 t}{2}\right]_0^{2 \pi}\)

= \(4 \cdot \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{\pi}{2}+\frac{1}{2}[\cos 4 \pi-\cos 0]=\pi+\frac{1}{2}(1-1)=\pi\)

54. Evaluate  \(\int_S\)(∇x F). N dS where F =yi + (x- 2xz) j -xy k and S is the surface S  of the sphere x² +y² + z² = a², above the xy-plane.

Solution:  The boundary C of S is a circle in xy-plane, i.e. x² +y² =1,z=0.

The parametric equations are x=a cos t, y= a sin t,z=0, 0≤t ≤2π. And dx =-a isn’t dt, dy= a cos t dt, dz=0.

∴ \(\int_S \nabla \times \mathbf{F} \cdot \mathbf{N} d S=\int_C \mathbf{F} \cdot d \mathbf{r}=\int_C[y \mathbf{i}+(x-2 x z) \mathbf{j}-x y \mathbf{k}] \cdot d \mathbf{r}\)

= \(\int_C y d x+(x-2 x z) d y-x y d z=\int_{t=0}^{t=2 \pi} a \sin t(-a \sin t) d t+(a \cos t-0) a \cos t d t\)

= \(a^2 \int_{t=0}^{t=2 \pi}\left(\cos ^2 t-\sin ^2 t\right) d t\)

= \(a^2 \int_{t=0}^{t=2 \pi} \cos 2 t d t=\left[\frac{a^2}{2} \sin 2 t\right]_{t=0}^{t=2 \pi}=0\)

55. Prove that \(\oint_C\) f∇g .dr  \(\oint_C\)(∇fx ∇g) .N dS.

Solution: By Stoke’s theorem,

∴ \(\oint_c(f \nabla g) \cdot d \mathbf{r}=\int_S[\nabla \times(f \nabla g)] \cdot \mathbf{N} d S=\int_s[\nabla f \times \nabla g+f \text { curl } \text{grad} g] \cdot \mathbf{N} d S\)

= \(\int_S(\nabla f \times \nabla g) \cdot \mathbf{N} d S\) ∵ curl grad g = 0.

56. Prove that \(\int_S\) curlφ f .dS = \(\int_C\) φ f .dr− \(\int_S\) ∇φ x f.dS.

Solution: Applying Stoke’s theorem to the function φ f.

∴ \(\oint_c(f \nabla g) \cdot d \mathbf{r}=\int_s[\nabla \times(f \nabla g)] \cdot \mathbf{N} d S=\int_s[\nabla f \times \nabla g+f \mathrm{curl} \text{grad} g] \cdot \mathbf{N} d S\)

∴ \(\int_s(\nabla f \times \nabla g) \cdot \mathbf{N} d S .\)

∵ curl grad g = 0.

57.Prove that \(\oint_C\)f∇f.dr = 0.

Solution:

By Stoke’s theorem, \(\int_C(f \nabla f) \cdot d \mathbf{r}=\int_S(c u r l f \nabla f) \cdot \mathbf{N} d S\)

= \(\int_S \phi \text{curl} \mathbf{f} \cdot d \mathbf{S}=\int_C \phi \mathbf{f} \cdot d \mathbf{r}-\int_S \nabla \phi \times \mathbf{f} \cdot d \mathbf{S} .\)

12. Define line integral and explain the Cartesian form of line integral.

Line integral:

An integral which is to be evaluated along a curve is called a ” Line Integral. Suppose r=xi+yj+zk defines a piecewise smooth curve C joining two points A and B. Suppose F is a vector point function defined and continuous along C. If s denotes the arc length of the curve C then \(\frac{d r}{d s}\)= T is a unit vector along the tangent to the curve C at the point r.

The component of the vector F along the tangent is F.\(\frac{d r}{d s}\). The integral of F.\(\frac{d r}{d s}\) along from A to B written as \(\int_A^B\left(F \cdot \frac{d r}{d s}\right)\) ds \(=\int_A^B \mathbf{F} \cdot d \boldsymbol{r}\)  \(=\int_C F \cdot d r\) . is an example of a line integral. it is called tangent line integral of F along C.

Cartesian form: If F = F₁i +F₂ j + F₃k then

F.dr =(F₁i +F₂ j + F₃k). (dxi+dyj+dzk)= F₁dx+F₂dy+F₃dz

∴ \(\int_C\)F.dr=\(\int_C\)F₁dx+F₂dy+F₃dz

If the parametric equation of the curve C are x=x(t),y(t), z=z(t) and if t₁ at A, t=t₂ at  B then \(\int_C\)F.dr=\(=\int_{t_1}^{t_2}\left[F_1 \frac{d x}{d t}+F_2 \frac{d y}{d t}+F_3 \frac{d z}{d t}\right]\)dt

⇒ \(6 t^2\left(t^2+1\right) \mathbf{i}-5 t^3 \mathbf{J}+10\left(t^2+1\right) \mathbf{k}\)

⇒ \(\mathbf{F} \cdot \frac{d \mathbf{r}}{d t}=6 t^2\left(t^2+1\right) \cdot 2 t-5 t^3 \cdot 4 t+10\left(t^2+1\right) \cdot 3 t^2\)

⇒ \(12 t^5+12 t^3-20 t^4+30 t^4+30 t^2=12 t^5+10 t^4+12 t^3+30 t^2\)

∴ \(\left.\int \mathbf{F} \cdot d \mathbf{r}=\int\left(\mathbf{F} \cdot \frac{d \mathbf{r}}{d t}\right) d t=\int_1^2\left(12 t^5+10 t^4+12 t^3+30 t^2\right) d t=12 t^6+2 t^5+3 t^4+10 t^3\right]_1^2\)

Equation of the joining (0,0,0) to (2,1,3) are  \(\frac{x}{2}=\frac{y}{1}=\frac{z}{3}=t\) (say).

∴ x = 2t, y = t, z = 3t, t varies from 0 to 1. Also \(\frac{d x}{d t}=2, \frac{d y}{d t}=1, \frac{d z}{d t}=3\)

⇒ \(\mathbf{r}=x \mathbf{i}+y \mathbf{j}+z \mathbf{k} \Rightarrow d \mathbf{r}=d x \mathbf{i}+d y \mathbf{j}+d z \mathbf{k}=\left(\frac{d x}{d t} \mathbf{i}+\frac{d y}{d t} \mathbf{j}+\frac{d z}{d t} \mathbf{k}\right) d t=(2 \mathbf{i}+\mathbf{j}+3 \mathbf{k}) d t\)

⇒ \(\mathbf{F}=3 x^2 \mathbf{i}+(2 x z-y) \mathbf{j}+z \mathbf{k}=12 t^2 \mathbf{i}+\left(12 t^2-t\right) \mathbf{j}+3 t \mathbf{k}\)

⇒ \(\int_C \mathbf{F}. d \mathbf{r}=\int_C\left[12 t^2 \mathbf{i}+\left(12 t^2-t\right) \mathbf{j}+3 t \mathbf{k}\right] \cdot(2 \mathbf{i}+\mathbf{j}+3 \mathbf{k}) d t=\int_C\left(24 t^2+12 t^2-t+9 t\right) d t\)

∴ \(\left.\int_0^1\left(36 t^2+8 t\right) d t=12 t^3+4 t^2\right]_0^1=12+4=16\)

20. Evaluate \(\int_c\)A.dr where C is the line joining (0,0,0) and (2,1,1), given A = (2y + 3)i + xzj + (yz−x)k.

Solution:

The equations of the line joining (0,0,0) and (2,1,1) are  \(\frac{x}{2}=\frac{y}{1}=\frac{z}{3}\) =t.

Then along the line C,x=2t,y=t,z=t.

∴ At (0,0,0,) , t=0 and at (2,1,1,) , t=1.

r=xi+yj+zk=2ti+rj=tk.

∴ dr=(2i+j+k)dt.

∫A.dr=\(\int_C[2(2 y+3)+1(x z)+1(y z-x)] d t\)

=\(\int_0^1[2(2 t+3)+(2 t \cdot t)+(t \cdot t-2 t)] d t\)

In parametric form, x=cos θ,y=sin θ, z=0 and θ varies from 0 to 2π.

∴ \(\int_C F \cdot d r\)=\(\int_C(y \mathbf{i}+z \mathbf{j}+x \mathbf{k}) \cdot(\mathbf{i} d x+\mathbf{j} d y+\mathbf{k} d z)\)

⇒ \(\int_C(y d x+z d y+x d z)\)=\(\int_C y d x\)

⇒ \(=\int_{\theta=0}^{2 \pi} \sin \theta(-\sin \theta) d \theta\)

⇒ \(\theta=-4 \int_0^{\pi / 2} \sin ^2 \theta d \theta\)

⇒ \(\frac{20}{3}\)

∴ \(\int_{c} \mathbf{F} \cdot d r\)\(\)=\(\int_{c_1} \mathbf{F} \cdot d r\)+\(\int_{c_2} \mathbf{F} \cdot d r\)+\(\int_{c_3} \mathbf{F} \cdot d r\)=1+0+\(\frac{20}{3}\)=\(\frac{23}{3}\).

(1) Line integral along OP: Here y=0, dy=0 and x varies from o to a. \(\int_{O P} F \cdot d r\)=\(\int_0^a x^2 d x\)=\(\frac{a^3}{3}\)

(2)  Line integral along PQ: Here x=a, dx=0, and y changes from 0 to b.

∴ \(\int_{P Q} F \cdot d r\)=\(\int_a^b(-2 a y) d y\)=\(\left.-a y^2\right]_0^b\)=−ab²

(3) Line integral along QR: Here y=b, dy=0, and x changes from a to 0.

∴\(\int_{Q R} F \cdot d r\)=\(\int_b^0 0\)=0

∴\(=\int_a^0\left(x^2+b^2\right) d x\)

=\(\left[\frac{x^3}{3}+b^2 x\right]_a^0\)

=\(-\frac{1}{3} a^3-a b^2\)

24. Find \(\int_c\)y²dx−x²dy, where C the curve represents sides of ΔABC, where A =(1, 0), B = (0, 1), C = (- 1, 0).

Solution:

Equation of \(\overleftrightarrow{A B}\) is \(\frac{y-0}{1-0}\)=\(=\frac{x-1}{0-1}\)⇒ y=1−x

Equation  of \(\overleftrightarrow{B C}\) is \(\frac{y-1}{0-1}\)\(=\frac{x-0}{-1-0}\) ⇒ y=1+x.

Equation of \(\overleftrightarrow{C A}\) is y=0.

Case(1): Line integral along \(\overleftrightarrow{A B}\): y=1-x, dy =−dx, x varies from 1 to 0

∴ \(\int_{c_1} y^2 d x-x^2 d y=\int_1^0(1-x)^2 d x-x^2(-d x)=\int_1^0\left(1+x^2-2 x+x^2\right) d x\)

= \(\int_1^0\left(1-2 x+2 x^2\right) d x=\left[x-x^2+\frac{2 x^2}{3}\right]_1^0=-\left(1-1+\frac{2}{3}\right)=-\frac{2}{3}\)

Case(2): Line integral aling \(\overleftrightarrow{B C}\): y=1+x,dy=dx, x varies from 0 to −1

∴ \(\int_{c_2} y^2 d x-x^2 d y=\int_0^{-1}(1+x)^2 d x-x^2 d x=\int_0^{-1}\left(1+2 x+x^2-x^2\right) d x\)

= \(\int_0^{-1}(1+2 x) d x=\left[x+x^2\right]_0^{-1}=-1+1=0\)

Case(3): Line integral along \(\overleftrightarrow{C A}\): y=0,dy=0, x varies from −1 to 1.

∴ \(\int_{c_3} y^2 d x-x^2 d y=\int_{-1}^1 0=0\)

∴ \(\int_C y^2 d x-x^2 d y=\int_{c_1} y^2 d x-x^2 d y+\int_{c_2} y^2 d x-x^2 d y+\int_{c_3} y^2 d x-x^2 d y\)

Solution:

Given curve is y²=x⇒ 2y dy=dx. Work done by F is \(\int_C F \cdot d r\). the integration is performed in xy-plane and y varies from 0 to 1.

⇒ \(\int_c \mathbf{F} \cdot d \mathbf{r}=\int_c\left(x^2-y^2+x\right) d x-(2 x y+y) d y=\int_0^1\left(y^4-y^2+y^2\right) 2 y d y-\left(2 y^3+y\right) d y\)

⇒ \(\int_0^1\left(2 y^5-2 y^3-y\right) d y=\left[\frac{y^6}{3}-\frac{y^4}{2}-\frac{y^2}{2}\right]_0^1=\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{2}=\frac{2-3-3}{6}=\frac{-4}{6}=\frac{-2}{3}\)

Unit normal vector, N \(=\frac{2 i+j+2 k}{\sqrt{4+1+4}}\)=\(=\frac{1}{3}(2 \mathbf{i}+\mathbf{j}+2 \mathbf{k})\).

Let R be the projection of S on xy-plane.

Now R is bounded by the x-axis, y-axis, and the line 2x+y=6z= 0

⇒ \(\mathbf{F} \cdot \mathbf{N}=\left[\left(x+y^2\right) \mathbf{i}-2 x \mathbf{j}+2 y z \mathbf{k}\right] \cdot \frac{1}{3} (2 \mathbf{i}+\mathbf{j}+2 \mathbf{k})=\frac{1}{3}\left[2 x+2 y^2-2 x+4 y z\right]=\frac{2}{3}\left(y^2+2 y z\right)\)

⇒ \(\iint_R\left[y^2+y(6-2 x-y)\right] d x d y=2 \int_{x=0}^{x=3} \int_{y=0}^{y=6-2 x} y(3-x) d x d y\)

⇒ \(2 \int_{x=0}^{x=3}\left[\frac{y^2}{2}(3-x)\right]_{y=0}^{y=6-2 x} d x=\int_{x=0}^{x=3}(3-x)(6-2 x)^2 d x\)

⇒ \(\int_0^3(3-x)\left(36-24 x+4 x^2\right) d x=\int_0^3\left(108-108 x+36 x^2-4 x^3\right) d x\)

∴ \(\left[108 x-54 x^2+12 x^3-x^4\right]_0^3=324-486+324-81=81\)

Solution:

Consider the cube OABCPQRS surrounded by the following faces:

(1) For the faces PQAR, i is the outward normal:

∴ N=i, x=a, dS=dy dz.

∴ \(\int_{R_1} \mathbf{F} \cdot \mathbf{N} d S=\int_{y=0}^{y=a} \int_{z=0}^{z=a}\left(4 x z \mathbf{i}-y^2 \mathbf{j}+y z \mathbf{k}\right) \cdot \mathbf{i} d y d z\)

⇒ \(\int_{y=0}^{y=a} \int_{z=0}^{z=a} 4 x z d y d z=\int_{y=0}^{y=a} \int_{z=0}^{z=a} 4 a z d y d z\)

⇒ \(\int_{y=0}^{y=a}\left[2 a z^2\right]_{z=0}^{z=a} d y=\int_{y=0}^{y=a} 2 a^3 d y=\left[2 a^3 y\right]_0^a=2 a^4\)

(2) For the faces OBSC,−i is the outward normal:

∴ N=-i,x=0 , and dS =dy dz

∴ \(\int_{R_2} \mathbf{F} \cdot \mathbf{N} d S\)

=\(\iint_{R_2}\left(4 x z \mathbf{i}-y^2 \mathbf{j}+y z \mathbf{k}\right) \cdot(-\mathbf{i}) d y d z\)

=\(-\iint_{R_2} 4 x z d y d z\)=0

(3) For the face BQPS, j is the outward normal:

∴N=j,y=a, and dS=dx dz

∴\(\int_{R_3} \mathbf{F} \cdot \mathbf{N} d S\)

=\(\iint_{R_3}\left(4 x z \mathbf{i}-y^2 \mathbf{j}+y z \mathbf{k}\right)\).j dx dz

=\(-\iint_{R_3} y^2 d x d z\)

=\(-a^2 \int_{x=0}^{x=a} \int_{z=0}^{z=a} d x d z\)

=\(-a^2[x]_0^a[z]_0^a\)

=-a⁴

(4) For the OARC, -j is the  outward normal:

∴ N=-j, y=0 and dS =dx dz

∴ \(\int_{R_4} \mathbf{F} \cdot \mathbf{N} d S\)

=\(\int_{R_4}\)(4xzi-y²j+yzk).(-j) dS

=\(\int_{R_4}\)∫y² dx dz=0

(5) For the face PRCS, k is the outward normal:

∴ N=k, z=a, and dS= dx dy

∴ \(\int_{R_5} \mathbf{F} \cdot \mathbf{N} d S\)

=\(\int_{R_5}\left(4 x z \mathbf{i}-y^2 \mathbf{j}+y z \mathbf{k}\right) \cdot \mathbf{k} d S\)

=\(\iint_{R_5} y z \cdot d x d y\)

=\(\int_{x=0}^{x=a} \int_{y=0}^{y=a} a y d x d y\)

=\(a[x]_0^a \cdot\left[\frac{y^2}{2}\right]_0^a\)

∴ \(=\frac{a^4}{2}\)

(6) For the face OAQB, -k is the outward normal:

∴ N=-k, z=0 and dS= dx dy

∴ \(\int_{R_6} \mathbf{F} \cdot \mathbf{N} d S\)

=\(\int_{R_6}\left(4 x z \mathbf{i}-y^2 \mathbf{j}+y z \mathbf{k}\right) \cdot(-\mathbf{k}) d S\)

=\(-\iint_{R_6} y z d x d y\)=0

∴ \(\int_S \mathbf{F} \cdot \mathbf{N} d S\)=2a⁴+0-a⁴+0+½ a⁴+0=3/2a⁴.

Solution:

Given

x²yz = 3x + z² and 3x²-y + 2z=1 at (1,-2, 1)

A vector normal to the surfaces f=xy²z-3x-z² is grad (xy²z-3x-z²)

A vector normal to g=3x-y+2z-1 is 6xi-2yj+2k

At(1,-2,1), grad g=6i+4j+2k:

If θ is the angle between the surfaces, then

cos θ \(=\frac{1(6)+(-4) 4+2 \cdot 2}{\sqrt{1+16+4} \sqrt{36+16+4}}\)

= \(\frac{-6}{\sqrt{21} \sqrt{56}}\)

x²y + z = 3, x log z-y² = 4 at P (- 1, 2, 1)

The normal to the surfaces xy+z=3 is 2xyi+xj+k

At (-1,2,1), the normal is 4i+j+k

The normal to the surface x log z-y=4 is log zi-2yjj+(x/z)k

At(-1,2,1) the normal is -4j-k

The angle between the surfaces is equal to the angle between normal to the surfaces.

∴ cos θ \(=\left|\frac{4 \cdot 0+1(-4)+1(-1)}{\sqrt{4^2+1^2+1^2} \sqrt{(-4)^2+(-1)^2}}\right|\)

= \(\frac{5}{\sqrt{18} \sqrt{17}}\)

curl \(\frac{\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{r}}{r^3}=\nabla \times\left(\frac{\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{r}}{r^3}\right)=\Sigma\left\{\mathbf{i} \times \frac{\partial}{\partial x}\left(\frac{\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{r}}{r^3}\right)\right\}\)

Now \(\frac{\partial}{\partial x}\left(\frac{\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{r}}{r^3}\right)=-\frac{3}{r^4} \frac{\partial r}{\partial x}(\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{r})+\frac{1}{r^3}\left(\mathbf{a} \times \frac{\partial \mathbf{r}}{\partial x}\right)+\frac{1}{r^3}\left(\frac{\partial \mathbf{a}}{\partial x} \times \mathbf{r}\right)\)

⇒ \(\frac{\partial}{\partial x}\left(\frac{\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{r}}{r^3}\right)=-\frac{3}{r^4} \frac{x}{r}(\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{r})+\frac{1}{r^3}(\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{i})=-\frac{3 x}{r^5}(\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{r})+\frac{1}{r^3}(\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{i})\)

⇒ \(\mathbf{i} \times \frac{\partial}{\partial x}\left(\frac{\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{r}}{r^3}\right)=-\frac{3 x}{r^5} \mathbf{i} \times(\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{r})+\frac{1}{r^3} \mathbf{i} \times(\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{i})\)

⇒ \(\mathbf{i} \times \frac{\partial}{\partial x}\left(\frac{\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{r}}{r^3}\right)=-\frac{3 x}{r^5} \mathbf{i} \times(\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{r})+\frac{1}{r^3} \mathbf{i} \times(\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{i})\)

⇒ \(-\frac{3 x^2}{r^5} a+\frac{3}{r^5} a_1 x \mathbf{r}+\frac{1}{r^3} a-\frac{1}{r^3} a_1 \mathbf{i}\)

⇒ \(\Sigma\left\{\mathbf{i} \times \frac{\partial}{\partial x}\left(\frac{\mathbf{a} \times \mathbf{r}}{r^3}\right)\right\}=\left\{-\frac{3}{r^5} \Sigma x^2\right\} \mathbf{a}+\left\{\frac{3}{r^5} \Sigma a_1 x\right\} \mathbf{r}+\frac{3}{r^3} \mathbf{a}-\frac{1}{r^3} \Sigma a_1 \mathbf{i}\)

⇒ \(-\frac{3}{r^5} r^2 a+\frac{3}{r^5}(r \cdot a) r+\frac{3}{r^3} a-\frac{1}{r^3} a=-\frac{a}{r^3}+\frac{3}{r^5}(a \cdot r)\)

=∑(F×i).i=0.

133. If f is a vector point function, prove that(f×∇)×r=-2f.

Solution:

⇒ (f × i) × i + (f × j × j + (f × k) × k

= (i.f) i – (i.i)f + (j.f) j – (j.j) f + (k.f) k – (k.k)f

= (i.f)  i – (i.i) f + (j.f) j – (j.j)f + (k.f)k- (k.k) f

= (i.f)i+(j.f) j + (k.f) k – 3f = f – 3f = -2f

Solution:

⇒ \(f \nabla g=\mathbf{i} f \frac{\partial g}{\partial x}+\mathbf{j} f \frac{\partial g}{\partial y}+\mathbf{k} f \frac{\partial g}{\partial z}\)

= \(\mathbf{f} \times \frac{d \mathbf{g}}{d t}+\frac{d \mathbf{f}}{d t} \times \mathbf{g}\) .

∴ \(\mathbf{f} \times \mathbf{g}\) is differentiable at t and \(\frac{d}{d t}\{\mathbf{f} \times \mathbf{g}\}=\frac{d \mathbf{f}}{d t} \times \mathbf{g}+\mathbf{f} \times \frac{d \mathbf{g}}{d t}\)

Vector Differentiation Practice Problems With Solutions

9. Prove that a vector function f is constant if f \(\frac{d f}{d t}\)=0

Solution:

Suppose f is constant  then \(\frac{d \mathbf{f}}{d t}\)=0

Conversely suppose that \(\frac{d \mathbf{f}}{d t}\)=0 .Let f= f₁i+f₂j+f₃k

⇒ \(\frac{d f_1}{d t} \mathbf{i}+\frac{d f_2}{d t} \mathbf{j}+\frac{d f_3}{d t} \mathbf{k}\)=0

⇒ \(\frac{d f_1}{d t}\)=0, \(\frac{d f_2}{d t}\)=0,\(\frac{d f_3}{d t}\)=0

⇒ f₁,f₂,f₃  are constants ⇒ f is a  constant vector function.

10. Prove that a vector function f is o fconstant magnitude if f.\(\frac{d f}{d t}\)=0

Solution:

Suppose f is constant magnitude. Then f²=|f|²= a constant.

∴ \(\frac{d}{d t}\){f²}=0 ⇒ 2f. \(\frac{d \mathbf{f}}{d t}\) =0  ⇒ f. \(\frac{d \mathbf{f}}{d t}\)

Conversely suppose that f. \(\frac{d \mathbf{f}}{d t}\) =0⇒ 2f. \(\frac{d \mathbf{f}}{d t}\) =0  ⇒ \(\frac{d}{d t}\){f²}=0

∴ f² is constant  ⇒|f|²= constant  ⇒ f is of constant length.

11. Prove that a vector function I has constant direction if f  x \(\frac{d f}{d t}\)=0

Solution:

Let f (t)=f (t)F where f (t) =| f (t)| and F (t) is a vector function with unit magnitude, for every t in the domain of f.

∴  \(\frac{d \mathbf{f}}{d t}\) = \(\frac{d}{d t}\){fF} =f\(\frac{d \mathbf{F}}{d t}+\frac{d f}{d t}\) F

f× \(\frac{d \mathbf{f}}{d t}\)=f F ×(f\(\frac{d \mathbf{F}}{d t}+\frac{d f}{d t}\) F)= f²( F ×\(\frac{d \mathbf{F}}{d t}\)) +f\(\frac{d \mathbf{f}}{d t}\)

(F×F) = f(F×\(\frac{d \mathbf{F}}{d t}\))

Suppose f has a constant direction.

Then F is constant  ⇒ \(\frac{d \mathbf{F}}{d t}\))=0

⇒ F× \(\frac{d \mathbf{F}}{d t}\)=0  ⇒ f×\(\frac{d \mathbf{f}}{d t}\)= f²( F ×\(\frac{d \mathbf{F}}{d t}\)) =0

Conversely suppose that f×\(\frac{d \mathbf{f}}{d t}\) = 0. Then  f²( F ×\(\frac{d \mathbf{F}}{d t}\)) =0⇒ F ×\(\frac{d \mathbf{F}}{d t}\)=0

Given

r = e^-ti  + + log(t²+ l)J-tan t k

r = \(e^{-t} \mathbf{i}+\log \left(t^2+1\right) \mathbf{j}-\tan t \mathbf{k} \Rightarrow \frac{d \mathbf{r}}{d t}=-e^{-t} \mathbf{i}+\frac{2 t}{t^2+1} \mathbf{j}-\sec ^2 t \mathbf{k}\)

Solution:

1. \(\mathbf{A} \times \mathbf{B}=\left|\begin{array}{ccc}
\mathbf{i} & \mathbf{j} & \mathbf{k} \\
t^2 & -t & 2 t+1 \\
2 t-3 & 1 & -t

= \(\mathbf{i}\left(t^2-2 t-1\right)-\mathbf{j}\left(-t^3-4 t^2+4 t+3\right)+\mathbf{k}\left(t^2+2 t^2-3 t\right)\)

= \(\left(t^2-2 t-1\right) \mathbf{i}+\left(t^3+4 t^2-4 t-3\right) \mathbf{j}+\left(3 t^2-3 t\right) \mathbf{k}\)

= \(\left(t^2+2 t-3\right) \mathbf{i}+(1-t) \mathbf{j}+(t+1) \mathbf{k}\)

⇒ \(|\mathbf{A}+\mathrm{B}|=\sqrt{\left(t^2+2 t-3\right)^2+(1-t)^2+(t+1)^2}\)

= \(\sqrt{t^4+4 t^2+9+4 t^3-6 t^2-12 t+2+2 t^2}\)

= \(\sqrt{t^4+4 t^3-12 t+11}\)

⇒ \(\frac{d}{d t}(|\mathbf{A}+\mathrm{B}|)=\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{t^4+4 t^3-12 t+11}} \times 4 t^3+12 t^2-12=\frac{4+12-12}{2 \sqrt{1+4-12+11}}=\frac{2}{2}\)

(3) \(\frac{d}{d t}\) (A.A)

Solution:

(1)  A.B = 5t² sint-t cos t

∴ \(\frac{d}{d t}\) ( A.B) 5t² cos t +10 t sin t+ t sin t -cos t =5t² cos t + 11 t sin t -cos t

(2) \(\mathbf{A} \times \mathbf{B}\)

= \(\mathbf{i}\left(0-t^3 \cos t\right)-\mathbf{j}\left(0+t^3 \sin t\right)+\mathbf{k}\left(-5 t^2 \cos t-t \sin t\right)\)

Solution: r- a cos t i+ a sin t j+ at tan θ k

r = \(a \cos t \mathbf{i}+a \sin t \mathbf{j}+a t \tan \theta \mathbf{k}\)

Solution: r= a cos t i+ a sin t j+ at tan θ k

r = \(a \cos t \mathbf{I}+a \sin t \mathbf{j}+a t \tan \theta \mathbf{k}\)

∴ \(\frac{d \mathbf{r}}{d t}=-a \sin t \mathbf{i}+a \cos t \mathbf{j}+a \tan \theta \mathbf{k}\), \(\frac{d^2 \mathbf{r}}{d t^2}=-a \cos t \mathbf{i}-a \sin t \mathbf{j}\), \(\frac{d^3 \mathbf{r}}{d t^3}=a \sin t \mathbf{i}-a \cos t \mathbf{j}\)

22. Define the partial derivative of a vector function.

Solution:

Partial derivative: Let f = f (p, q, t) be a vector function of scalar variables that exists, then the limit is called the ”partial derivative”  of f  with respect to t. It is denoted by \(\frac{\partial f}{\partial f}\) . Similarly we can define \(\frac{\partial f}{\partial p}\),\(\frac{\partial f}{\partial q}\).

23. If f=cos xyi+(3xy-2x²)j-(3x+2y) k then find \(\frac{\partial^2 \mathbf{f}}{\partial x^2}\),\(\frac{\partial^2 \mathbf{f}}{\partial x \partial y}\),\(\frac{\partial^2 \mathbf{f}}{\partial y^2}\).

Solution:

f = \(\cos x y \mathbf{i}+\left(3 x y-2 x^2\right) \mathbf{j}-(3 x+2 y) \mathbf{k}\)

⇒ \(\frac{\partial \mathbf{f}}{\partial x}=-y \sin x y \mathbf{i}+(3 y-4 x) \mathbf{j}-3 \mathbf{k}\)

⇒ \(\frac{\partial \mathbf{f}}{d y}=-x \sin x y \mathbf{i}+3 x \mathbf{j}-2 \mathbf{k}\)

⇒ \(\frac{\partial^2 \mathbf{f}}{\partial x^2}=\frac{\partial}{\partial x}\left(\frac{\partial \mathbf{f}}{\partial x}\right)=-y^2 \cos x y \mathbf{i}-4 \mathbf{j}\)

⇒ \(\frac{\partial^2 \mathbf{f}}{\partial x \partial y}=\frac{\partial}{\partial x}\left(\frac{\partial \mathbf{f}}{\partial y}\right)\)

= \(-(x y \sin x y+\sin x y) \mathbf{i}+3 \mathbf{j}\)

∴ \(\frac{\partial^2 \mathbf{f}}{\partial y^2}=\frac{\partial}{\partial y}\left(\frac{\partial \mathbf{f}}{\partial y}\right)=-x^2 \cos x y \mathbf{i}\)

24.If f=(2x²y-x⁴)i+(e^xy-y sin x)j+(x² cos y) k, find \(\frac{\partial^2 \mathbf{f}}{\partial x^2}\) and  \(\frac{\partial^2 \mathbf{f}}{\partial x \partial y}\)

Solution:

Given

f=(2x²y-x⁴)i+(e^xy-y sin x)j+(x² cos y) k

f = \(\left(2 x^2 y-x^4\right) \mathbf{i}+\left(e^{x y}-y \sin x\right) \mathbf{j}+\left(x^2 \cos y\right) \mathbf{k}\)

⇒ \(\frac{\partial f}{\partial x}=\left(4 x y-4 x^3\right) \mathbf{I}+\left(y e^{x y}-y \cos x\right) \mathbf{j}+(2 x \cos y) \mathbf{k}\)

and \(\frac{\partial f}{\partial y} \doteq 2 x^2 \mathbf{I}+\left(x e^{x y}-\sin x\right) \mathbf{j}-x^2 \sin y \mathbf{k}\)

⇒ \(\frac{\partial^2 f}{\partial x^2}=\left(4 y-12 x^2\right) \mathbf{I}+\left(y^2 e^{x y}+y \sin x\right) \mathbf{j}+2 \cos y \mathbf{k}\)

and \(\frac{\partial^2 f}{\partial x \partial y}=4 x \mathbf{I}+\left(x y e^{x y}+e^{x y}-\cos x\right) \mathbf{j}-2 x \sin y \mathbf{k} .\)

25. If f= a cos  nt+b sin nt then prove that \(\frac{\partial^2 r}{\partial t^2}\)+n² r =0 where a,b,n are constants .

Solution:

Given r = \(a \cos n t+b \sin n t\). Then \(\frac{\partial r}{\partial t}=-a n \sin n t+b n \cos n t\)

∴ \(\frac{\partial^2 r}{\partial t^2}=-a n^2 \cos n t-b n^2 \sin n t=-n^2(a \cos n t+b \sin n t)=-n^2 r \Rightarrow \frac{\partial^2 r}{\partial t^2}+n^2 r=0 \text {. }\)

At (1,-1,1), \(\mathbf{f}=2 x^2 \mathbf{i}-3 y z \mathbf{j}+x z^2 \mathbf{k}=2 \mathbf{i}+3 \mathbf{j}+\mathbf{k}\) and \(\mathbf{i} \frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial x}+\mathbf{j} \frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial y}+\mathbf{k} \frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial z}=\mathbf{i}\left(-3 x^2 y\right)+\mathbf{j}\left(-x^3\right)+\mathbf{k}(2)=3 \mathbf{i}-\mathbf{j}+2 \mathbf{k}\)

1. \(\mathbf{f} \cdot\left(\mathbf{i} \frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial x}+\mathbf{j} \frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial y}+\mathbf{k} \frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial z}\right)=(2 \mathbf{i}+3 \mathbf{j}+\mathbf{k}) \cdot(3 \mathbf{i}-\mathbf{j}+2 \mathbf{k})=6-3+2=5\)

3. \(\frac{\partial \mathbf{f}}{\partial z} \times\left(\mathbf{i} \frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial x}+\mathbf{j} \frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial y}+\mathbf{k} \frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial z}\right)=(3 \mathbf{j}+2 \mathbf{k}) \times(3 \mathbf{i}-\mathbf{j}+2 \mathbf{k})\)

= \(\left|\begin{array}{rrr}\mathbf{i} & \mathbf{j} & \mathbf{k} \\ 0 & 3 & \mathbf{2} \\ 3 & -1 & 2\end{array}\right|\)

62. Prove that g grad φ is a normal vector to the level surface φ (x,y, z) = c where c is constant.

Solution:

Let p(x,y,z) be a point on the level surface and T be the unit tangent vector at P The position vector of P is r= xi+yj+zk

∴\(\frac{\partial r}{\partial s}=\mathbf{i} \frac{\partial x}{\partial s}+\mathbf{j} \frac{\partial y}{\partial s}+\mathbf{k} \frac{\partial z}{\partial s}\)

φ (x,y,z) = c ⇒ \(\frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial s}\)=0

⇒ \(\frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial x} \frac{\partial x}{\partial s}+\frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial y} \frac{\partial y}{\partial s}+\frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial z} \frac{\partial z}{\partial z}\)=0

\(\left(\mathbf{i} \frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial x}+\mathbf{j} \frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial y}+\mathbf{k} \frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial z}\right) \cdot\left(\mathbf{i} \frac{\partial x}{\partial s}+\mathbf{j} \frac{\partial y}{\partial s}+\mathbf{k} \frac{\partial z}{\partial s}\right)\)=0

63. If φ is a scalar point function then prove that\(\frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial s}\) direction of grad φ.

Solution:

\(\frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial s}\) =(grad φ ) .e =\(\frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial N}\)N.e where N is the normal vector to the surface. at P.

∴  \(\frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial s}\)=\(\frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial N}\) |N| |e| cos (N,e) = \(\frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial N}\) cos (N,e)

\(\frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial s}\) has maximum ⇔ cos (N,e) = 1 ⇔  N=e.

∴ The directional derivative has maximum value along the normal to the surface.

∴ \(\frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial s}\)  has maximum value in the direction of grad   φ

Maximum value of the directional derivative=\(\frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial \mathbf{N}}\)=|grad φ|

grad \(\varphi=\mathbf{i} \frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial x}+\mathbf{j} \frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial y}+\mathbf{k} \frac{\partial \varphi}{\partial z}=(y+3 z) \mathbf{i}+(x+2 z) \mathbf{j}+(3 x+2 y) \mathbf{k}\)

At(1,1,1), \(\text{grad} \varphi=4 \mathbf{i}+3 \mathbf{j}+5 \mathbf{k}\)

Maximum value of the directional derivative of \(\varphi\) at (1,1,1) is \(|\text{grad} \varphi|\)

= \(\sqrt{16+9+25}=5 \sqrt{2}\)

A directional derivative is maximum in the direction of the unit normal vector N.

Solution:

The angle between surfaces: Let P be a point of intersection (common point) to the level surfaces f(x, y, z) = 0,g (x, y, z) = 0. The angle between the normals to the surfaces f(x,y, z) = 0, g (x,y, z) = 0 at P is called the “Angle between the surfaces” at P.

68. Find the angle between the surfaces of the spheres x²+y² + z² = 29, x² +y² + z² + 4x- 6y- 8z- 47 = 0 at the point (4,- 3, 2).

Solution: Let f=x²+y² + z² − 29,  g=x² +y² + z² + 4x- 6y- 8z- 47

grad f = \(\mathbf{i} \frac{\partial f}{\partial x}+\mathbf{j} \frac{\partial f}{\partial y}+\mathbf{k} \frac{\partial f}{\partial z}=2 x \mathbf{i}+2 y \mathbf{j}+2 z \mathbf{k}\)

grad g = \(\mathbf{i} \frac{\partial g}{\partial x}+\mathbf{j} \frac{\partial g}{\partial y}+\mathbf{k} \frac{\partial g}{\partial z}=(2 x+4) \mathbf{i}+(2 y-6) \mathbf{j}+(23-8) \mathbf{k}\)

At (4,-3,2), \(\text{gradf}=8 \mathbf{i}-6 \mathbf{j}+4 \mathbf{k}=\mathbf{a}\) (say), \(\text{grad} g=12 \mathbf{i}-12 \mathbf{j}-4 \mathbf{k}=\mathbf{b}\)  (say).

Now \(\mathbf{a}, \mathbf{b}\) are normal vectors to the surfaces at (4,-3,2)

∴ Angle between the surfaces at (4,-3,2) is equal to \((\mathbf{a}, \mathbf{b})\).

⇒ \(\cos (\mathbf{a}, \dot{b})=\frac{\mathbf{a} \cdot \mathbf{b}}{|\mathbf{a}||\mathbf{b}|}=\frac{(8 \mathbf{i}-6 \mathbf{j}+4 \mathbf{k}) \cdot(12 \mathbf{I}-12 \mathbf{j}-4 \mathbf{k})}{\sqrt{64+36+16} \sqrt{144+144+16}}\)

= \(\frac{96+72-16}{\sqrt{166} \sqrt{304}}=\frac{152}{\sqrt{116 \times 304}}=\sqrt{\frac{19}{29}}\)

∴ \((\mathbf{a}, \mathbf{b})=\text{Cos}^{-1}\left(\sqrt{\frac{19}{29}}\right)\)

69.   Find the angle between the surfaces x²+y²+z²=9 and =x²+y²−z=3

Solution:

∇f = \(\mathbf{i} \frac{\partial f}{\partial x}+\mathbf{j} \frac{\partial f}{\partial y}+\mathbf{k} \frac{\partial f}{\partial z}\)=2xi+2yj+2zk. At( 2,-1,2), ∇f=4I-2J+4K

The normal to the surface x+y+z= 9 at (2,-1,2), is 4i-2j+4k

= \(2xi+2yj-k At (2,-1,2), g=4i-2j-kx\)

The normal to the surface z= x²+y²-z at (2,-1,2) is 4i-2j+4k

If  θ  is the angle between the surfaces at (2,-1,2) then

cos θ \(=\frac{(4 \mathbf{i}-2 \mathbf{j}+4 \mathbf{k}) \cdot(4 \mathbf{i}-2 \mathbf{j}-\mathbf{k})}{|4 \mathbf{i}-2 \mathbf{j}+4 \mathbf{k}||4 \mathbf{i}-2 \mathbf{j}-\mathbf{k}|}\)

= \(\frac{16+4-4}{\sqrt{16+4+16} \sqrt{16+4+1}}\)

= \(\frac{16}{6 \sqrt{21}}\)=\(\frac{8}{3 \sqrt{21}}\)

∴ Angle between the surfaces = Cos^-1\((8 / 3 \sqrt{21)}\)

Solution: \(\int_0^1\left\{\int_0^1 \frac{x-y}{(x+y)^3} d y\right\} d x\)

= \(\int_0^1\left\{\int_0^1\left[\frac{2 x}{(x+y)^3}-\frac{1}{(x+y)^2}\right] d y\right\} d x\)

It is convenient to consider a horizontal strip, with one end moving on x=y^2 and another end moving on x=3-2y.

To cover the region, this strip has to be slid from y=0 to y=1.

= \(\int_0^1\left[\int_{x^2}^x\left(x^2 y+x y^2\right) d y\right] d x=\int_0^1\left[\frac{x^2 y^2}{2}+\frac{x y^3}{3}\right]_{x^2}^x d x\)

Advanced Problems On Multiple Integrals With Detailed Solutions

22. Evaluate \(\iint e^{2 x+3 y} d x d y\) over the triangle bounded by x=0,y=0, and x+y=1.

Solution:

Given

The region of integration R is the shaded area shown in the figure.

The integral can be evaluated over R by considering either a horizontal strip or a vertical strip.

Imagine a vertical strip such that one end is moving on y=0 and the other end is moving on y=1-x.

By sliding this strip from x=0 to x=1 the region can be covered.

Hence \(\iint_R e^{2 x+3 y} d x d y=\int_0^1 \int_0^{1-x} e^{2 x+3 y} d x d y=\int_0^1\left[\int_0^{1-x} e^{2 x+3 y} d y\right] d x\)

= \(\int_0^1\left[\frac{e^{2 x+3 y}}{3}\right]_0^{1-x} d x\)

= \(\int_0^1 \frac{1}{3}\left(e^{3-x}-e^{2 x}\right) d x=\frac{1}{3}\left[-e^{3-x}-\frac{e^{2 x}}{2}\right]_0^1\)

= \(\frac{1}{3}\left[-e^2-\frac{e^2}{2}+e^3+\frac{1}{2}\right]=\frac{1}{3}\left[\frac{2 e^3-3 e^2+1}{2}\right]\)

23. Evaluate \(\iint_R x^2 d x d y\) where R is the region in the first quadrant bounded by the hyperbola xy=16 and the lines y=x,y=0, and x=8.

Solution:

Given

The hyperbola xy=16 and the lines y=x,y=0, and x=8.

The region is as a shaded area. It may be noted that the entire region can’t be covered with a single horizontal strip or a vertical strip.

Let us divide the region into two regions R₁ and R₂ and evaluate. Hence

∴ \(\iint_{\boldsymbol{R}} x^2 d x d y\) =\(\iint_{R_1} x^2 d x d y+\iint_{R_2} x^2 d x d y\)

Imagine a vertical strip in R₁ ∋ one end moves on the x-axis and another end moves on y = x. Thus the limits of y are 0 to x

And the strip must be slid from x = 0 to x = 4 to cover R₁

Imagine a vertical strip in R₂  ∋ one end moves on the x-axis and another end moves on = 16/x. Thus the limits of y are 0, 16/x.

This strip must be moved from x = 4 tox = 8 to cover R₂

Hence \(\iint_R x^2 d x d y=\iint_{R_1} x^2 d x d y+\iint_{R_2} x^2 d x d y\)

= \(\int_0^4 \int_0^x x^2 d x d y+\int_4^8 \int_{10}^{16 / x} x^2 d x d y \cdot\)

= \(\int_0^4\left[\int_0^x x^2 d y\right] d x+\int_4^8\left[\int_{10}^{16 / x} x^2 d y\right] d x\)

= \(\int_0^4\left[x^2 \cdot y\right]_0^x d x+\int_4^8\left[x^2 y\right]_0^{16 / x} d x=\int_0^4 x^3 d x+\int_4^8 16 x d x\)

= \(\left[\frac{x^4}{4}\right]_0^4+\left[\frac{16 x^2}{2}\right]_4^8=\frac{256}{4}+\frac{16 \cdot 64}{2}-\frac{16 \cdot 16}{2}=64+512-128=448\).

= \(\int_{x=0}^1\left[\int_{y=0}^{1-x}\left(x^2+y^2\right) d y\right] d x\)

= \(\int_0^1\left[x^2 y+\frac{y^3}{3}\right]_0^{1-x} d x d y=\int_0^1\left[x^2(1-x)+\frac{1}{3}(1-x)^3\right] d x\)

= \(\left[\frac{x^3}{3}-\frac{x^4}{4}-\frac{1}{12}(1-x)^4\right]_0^1=\left[\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{4}-0\right]-\left[0-0-\frac{1}{12}\right]\)

= \(\frac{4-3+1}{12}=\frac{1}{6} .\)

The region of integration is \(-a \leq x \leq a\),

– \(\frac{b}{a} \sqrt{a^2-x^2} \leq y \leq \frac{b}{a} \sqrt{a^2-x^2} \text {. }\)

Understanding Multiple Integrals With Solved Exercises

34. Evaluate \(\iint r \sqrt{a^2-r^2} d \theta d r\)over the upper half of the circle r=a cos⁡θ.

Solution:

Given

The required integral = \(\int_0^{\pi / 2} \int_{r=0}^{r=a \cos \theta} r \sqrt{a^2-r^2} d r d \theta\)

= \(\int_0^{\pi / 2}\left[-\frac{1}{3}\left(a^2-r^2\right)^{3 / 2}\right]_0^{a \cos \theta} d \theta\)

= \(-\frac{1}{3} \int_0^{\pi / 2}\left\{\left(a^2-a^2 \cos ^2 \theta\right)^{3 / 2}-\left(a^2\right)^{3 / 2}\right\} d \theta\)

= \(\frac{a^3}{3} \int_0^{\pi / 2}\left(1-\sin ^3 \theta\right) d \theta=\frac{a^3(3 \pi-4)}{18} .\)

35. Evaluate \(\iint \frac{\sqrt{\left(a^2 b^2-b^2 x^2-a^2 y^2\right)}}{\sqrt{\left(a^2 b^2+b^2 x^2+a^2 y^2\right)}} d x d y\) the field of integration being the positive quadrant of the ellipse \(x^2 / a^2+y^2 / b^2=1\).

Solution: Changing the variables x,y to , where x=aX,y=bY

We see that, since ∂ (x,y)/ ∂ (x,y)= ab, the integral = \(a b\iint \sqrt{\left(\frac{1-X^2-Y^2}{1+X^2+Y^2}\right)}\)dX dY,

The new field of integration is the positive quadrant of the circle X²+Y²=1.

Changing X,Y to r, where X= r cosθ , Y= =r sinθ , so that(X,Y)/(r,θ )=r,

We see that the integral = ab\(=a b \iint \frac{\sqrt{\left(1-r^2\right)}}{\sqrt{\left(1+r^2\right)}}\)r dr dθ.

It is easily seen that the positive quadrant of the circle X²+Y²= 1, will be described if 0 varies from 0 to π/2 and corresponds to each value of θ between 0 and  π/2, r varies from 0 to 1.

This new domain of integration, therefore, is the rectangle [ 0, 1:0, 1/2π].

Thus the integral = \(a b \int_0^{\pi / 2} d \theta \int_0^1 \frac{\sqrt{\left(1-r^2\right)}}{\sqrt{\left(1+r^2\right)}} r d r\)

= \(\frac{\pi}{2} a b \int_0^1 \frac{\sqrt{\left(1-r^2\right)}}{\sqrt{\left(1+r^2\right)}} r d r=\frac{1}{2} \pi(\pi-2) a b\)

where the integral has been evaluated by putting \(r^2=\cos t\).

36. Integrate the function \(\frac{1}{x y}\) over the area bounded by the four circles \(x^2+y^2=a x, a^{\prime} x, b y, b^{\prime} y \text { where } a, a^{\prime}, b, b^{\prime}\) are all positive.

Solution:  The integration is to be carried over the shaded area. We have supposed a’> a and b’ > b.

The region of integration is defined by ax≤ x+y ≤ a’ x; by≤x+y≤ b’y. We change the variables to u, v, where

u = \(\frac{\left(x^2+y^2\right)}{x, v}=\frac{\left(x^2+y^2\right)}{y} \Rightarrow x=\frac{u v^2}{u^2+v^2} ; y=\frac{u^2 v}{u^2+v^2}\)

It is easy to see that \(\frac{\partial(u, v)}{\partial(x, y)}=-\frac{\left(x^2+y^2\right)^2}{x^2 y^2}\)

∴ \(\frac{\partial(x, y)}{\partial(u, v)}=-\frac{x^2 y^2}{\left(x^2+y^2\right)^2}\).

Since the Jacobian is negative, the transformation is inverse. This fact may also be directly verified. The new field of integration is determined by the boundaries u=a, u=a’, v=b,v=b’, and is, therefore, the rectangle [a, a’; b, b’].

Thus we see that the integral = \(\iint \frac{1}{x y}|J| d u d v=\iint \frac{x y}{\left(x^2+y^2\right)^2} d u d v\)‘

= \(\iint \frac{1}{u v} d u d v=\int_a^{a^{\prime}} \frac{1}{u} d u \int_b^{b^{\prime}} \frac{1}{v} d v=\log \frac{a^{\prime}}{a} \cdot \log \frac{b^{\prime}}{b} .\)

37. By substituting x+y=u,x=uv, prove that the value of \(\iint \sqrt{[x y(1-x-y)]} d x d y\) taken over the interior of the triangle bounded by the lines x=0,y=0,x+y-1=0 is 2π/105.

Solution: 

Now x=uv,y=u (1-v)⇒ ∂(x,y)/∂(u,v)=-u, so that  the jacobian≤ 0.

The jacobian vanishes when u=0, i.e when x=y=0, but not otherwise.

It is easy to see that to the origin of the xy-plane corresponds to the whole line u=0 of the uv- plane so that the correspondence ceases to be one-to-one.

In order to exclude x=0, y=0, we look upon the given integral, which certainly exists, as the limit, when h→0, of the integral over the region bounded by x+y=1, x=0, y=h. (h>0)

The transformed region is, then, bounded by the lines u=1,v=0,u(1-v)=h, which correspond to the three boundaries of the region in the xy-plane. When h→0, this new region of the UV-plane tends, as the limit, to the square bounded by the lines u=1, v=1,u=0,v=0.

Thus the Integral

= \(\iint \sqrt{[u \nu u(1-v)(1-u)} u d u d v=\int_0^1 u^2 \sqrt{1-u} d u \int_0^1 \sqrt{[v(1-v)]} d v\)

Putting \(u=\sin ^2 \theta\) and \(v=\sin ^2 \psi\), we see that

⇒ \(\int_0^1 u^2 \sqrt{(1-u)} d u=2 \int_0^{\pi / 2} \sin ^5 \theta \cos ^2 \theta d \theta\)

= \(\frac{2 \cdot 4 \cdot 2 \cdot 1}{\not \cdot 5 \cdot 3 \cdot 1}=\frac{16}{105}\),

∴ \( \int_0^1 \sqrt{v(1-v)} d v=2 \int_0^{\pi / 2} \sin ^3 \psi \cos ^2 \psi d x=\frac{2 \cdot 1 \cdot 1}{4 \cdot 2} \cdot \frac{\pi}{2}=\frac{\pi}{8}\).

Note:  We have u=x+y, v=x/(x+y) and x= uv, y= u(1-v).

38. Using the transformation x+y=u,x-y=ν, evaluate \(\iint e^{\frac{x-y}{x+y}} d x d y\) over the region bounded by x=0,y=0,x+y=1.

Solution:

Solving x+y=u, x-y=v, we have x=\(\frac{u+v}{2}, y=\frac{u-v}{2}\)

We transform the function, curves in to u, v plane with this substitution. xy plane

Curves :

x=0

y=0

x+y=1

u v plane

u=-v

u=v

u=1

Now, \(f(x, y)=e^{\frac{x-y}{x+y}}\) is . \(f(u, v)=e^{\frac{v}{u}}\) . \(J\left(\begin{array}{ll}x & y \\ u & v\end{array}\right)\)

= \(\left|\begin{array}{ll}\frac{\partial x}{\partial u} & \frac{\partial x}{\partial v} \\ \frac{\partial y}{\partial u} & \frac{\partial y}{\partial v}\end{array}\right|\)

= \(\left|\begin{array}{cc}\frac{1}{2} & \frac{1}{2} \\ \frac{1}{2} & -\frac{1}{2}\end{array}\right|=-\frac{1}{2}\).

Hence dx dy = \(\left|J\left(\begin{array}{ll}
x & y \\
u & v
\end{array}\right)\right| d u d v=\frac{1}{2} d u d v\)

⇒ \(\int_0^1 \int_{-u}^u e^{v / u} \cdot \frac{1}{2} d v d u\)

= \(\frac{1}{2} \int_0^1\left[u e^{v / u}\right]_{-u}^u d u=\frac{1}{2} \int_0^1\left(u \cdot e-u \cdot e^{-1}\right) d u\)

= \(\frac{1}{2} \int_0^1\left(u e-\frac{u}{e}\right) d u\)

= \(\frac{1}{2}\left(e-\frac{1}{e}\right)\left[\frac{u^2}{2}\right]_0^1=\frac{1}{4}\left(e-\frac{1}{e}\right)\).

In the new region of the u-v plane imagine a vertical strip with one end on v=-u and the other end on v=u. This has, to be slid from u=0 to u=1, to cover the region. With the transformation, the integral becomes

39. By changing into polar coordinates evaluate the integral \(\int_0^{2 a} \int_0^\sqrt{2 a x-x^2}\left(x^2+y^2\right) d x d y\).

Solution:  The region of integration is the semi-circle x+y=2ax above the x-axis. Changing into polar, the region becomes r=0 to r=2a cos θ from  θ=0 to θ= π/2. Hence the required integral

= \(\int_0^{\pi / 2} \int_0^{2 a \cos \theta}\left(r^2 \cos ^2 \theta+r^2 \sin ^2 \theta\right) r d r d \theta\)

=\(\int_0^{\pi / 2} \cdot \int_0^{2 a \cos \theta} r^2 d r d \theta\)

= \(\int_0^{\pi / 2}\left[\frac{r^4}{4}\right]_0^{2 a \cos \theta} d \theta=4 a^4 \int_0^{\pi / 2} \cos ^4 \theta d \theta=\frac{3 \pi a^4}{4} .\)

40. Change into polar coordinates and evaluate \(\int_0^a \int_0^{\sqrt{a^2-x^2}} e^{-\left(x^2+y^2\right)} d x d y\).

Solution: 

Here f(x,y) =e^-(x2+y2) and the region is bounded by y=0, y=\(\sqrt{a^2-x^2}\), x=0,x=a.

The region is shown in the figure. Substitute x=r cosθ,y=r sinθ. f(x,y)= e^{-(r2cos2θ+r sin2θ)} = e^-r2.

The curve y= \(\sqrt{a^2-x^2}\) is a circle whose equation is x²+y²=a².

Substituting x= r cosθ , y= r sinθ, this becomes r=a

Imagine a wedge with one end at the pole O and the other end moving on r=a.To cover the region the wedge has to be moved from θ=0 to θ= π/2

Thus \(\int_0^a \int_0^{\sqrt{a^2-x^2}} e^{-\left(x^2+y^2\right)} d x d y=\int_0^{\pi / 2} \int_0^a e^{-r^2} r d r d \theta\)

= \(\int_0^{\pi / 2}\left[-\frac{e^{-r^2}}{2}\right]_0^a d \theta\)

= \(\int_0^{\pi / 2}\left[-\frac{e^{-a^2}}{2}+\frac{1}{2}\right] d \theta\)

= \(\frac{1-e^{-a^2}}{2}[\theta]_0^{\pi / 2}=\frac{\pi}{4}\left(1-e^{-a^2}\right)\)

41. Change into polar coordinates and evaluate \(\int_0^{\infty} \int_0^{\infty} \frac{1}{\left(a^2+x^2+y^2\right)^{3 / 2}} d x d y\).

Solution:

The region of integration is y-=0, y = ∞ , x = 0, x = ∞ , and hence the entire region lies in the first quadrant. Put x = r cos θ, y = r sin θ.

Now \(\frac{1}{\left(a^2+x^2+y^2\right)^{3 / 2}}\)

= \(\frac{1}{\left(a^2+r^2 \cos ^2 \theta+r^2 \sin ^2 \theta\right)^3 / 2}\)\(=\frac{1}{\left(a^2+r^2\right)^{3 / 2}}\)

Imagine a wedge of angular thickness δθ with one end at pole r=0 and the other end on r=∞. To cover the first quadrant this wedge has to be moved from θ =0 to θ =π/2.

Hence \(\int_0^{\infty} \int_0^{\infty} \frac{1}{\left(a^2+x^2+y^2\right)^{3 / 2}} d x d y\)

= \(\int_0^{\pi / 2} \int_0^{\infty} \frac{1}{\left(a^2+r^2\right)^{3 / 2}} r d r d \theta\)

= \(\int_0^{\pi / 2}-\left[\frac{1}{\left(a^2+r^2\right)^{1 / 2}}\right]_0^{\infty} d \theta\)

= \(\int_0^{\pi / 2} \frac{1}{a} d \theta=\frac{1}{a} \cdot \frac{\pi}{2}=\frac{\pi}{2 a}\)

42. Change into polar coordinates and evaluate \(\int_0^a \int_{\sqrt{a x-x^2}}^{\sqrt{a^2-x^2}} \frac{1}{\sqrt{a^2-x^2-y^2}} d x d y\).

Solution:

The region of integration is surrounded by y = \(\sqrt{a x-x^2}, y=\sqrt{a^2-x^2}, x=0, x=a\).

y = \(\sqrt{a x-x^2}\) i.e., \(y^2=a x-x^2\) i.e., \(\left(x-\frac{a}{2}\right)^2+y^2=\frac{a^2}{4}\) represents a circle with center (a/2,0), radius a/2.

y = \(\sqrt{a^2-x^2}\) represents a circle with center (0,0) and radius a.

The region of integration is shown in the figure

Put x = \(r \cos \theta, y=r \sin \theta\) so that \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{a^2-x^2-y^2}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{a^2-r^2}}, x^2+y^2=a^2\) is r=a \(\left(x-\frac{a}{2}\right)^2+y^2=\frac{a^2}{4}\) is \(r=a \cos \theta\)

Imagine a wedge of angular thickness δθ with one end on r = a cos θ   and another end on r = a. To cover the region this wedge has to be moved from θ = 0 to 0 = π/2. Thus the given integral in polar coordinates is

⇒ \(\int_0^{\pi / 2} \int_{a \cos \theta}^a \frac{1}{\sqrt{\left.a^2-r^2\right)}} r d r d \theta\)

= \(\int_0^{\pi / 2}\left[-\sqrt{a^2-r^2}\right]_{a \cos \theta}^a d \theta\)

= \(\int_0^{\pi / 2} a \sin \theta d \theta\)\(=a[-\cos \theta]_0^{\pi / 2}\)=a

43. Evaluate the integral \(\int_0^{4 a} \int_{y^2 / 4 a}^y \frac{x^2-y^2}{x^2+y^2} d x d y\) by changing to polar coordinates.

Solution:  The region of integration is y= 0,y=4a,x=y/4a, x=y

∴ The regions is bounded by the line y=x and the parabola y= 4ax.

Put x = \(r \cos \theta, y=r \sin \theta\).

Then dx dy = r dr dθ

⇒ \(y^2=4 a x \Rightarrow r^2 \sin ^2 \theta=4 a \cdot r \cos \theta\)

⇒ r = \(\frac{4 a \cos \theta}{\sin ^2 \theta}\)

The limits of integration are r=0 to r = \(\frac{4 a \cos \theta}{\sin ^2 \theta}\) and for the line x=y, slope, \(\tan \theta=1 \Rightarrow \theta=\pi / 4\).

∴ limits for θ are θ = \(\pi / 4\) to \(\theta=\pi / 2\)

Also \(x^2+y^2=r^2, x^2-y^2=r^2\left(\cos ^2 \theta-\sin ^2 \theta\right)\).

∴ \(\int_0^{4 a} \int_{y^2 / 4 a}^y \frac{x^2-y^2}{x^2+y^2} d x d y\)

= \(\int_{\theta=\pi / 4}^{\pi / 2} \int_{r=0}^{4 a \cos \theta / \sin ^2 \theta}\left(\cos ^2 \theta-\sin ^2 \theta\right) r d r d \theta\)

= \(\int_{\pi / 4}^{\pi / 2}\left(\cos ^2 \theta-\sin ^2 \theta\right)\left[\frac{r^2}{2}\right]_0^{4 a \cos \theta / \sin ^2 \theta} d \theta\)

= \(8 a^2 \int_{\pi / 4}^{\pi / 2}\left(\cos ^2 \theta-\sin ^2 \theta\right) \frac{\cos ^2 \theta}{\sin ^4 \theta} d \theta\)

= \(8 a^2 \int_{\pi / 4}^{\pi / 2}\left(\cot ^4 \theta-\cot ^2 \theta\right) d \theta=8 a^2\left[-\frac{\cot ^3 \theta}{3}+2 \cot \theta+2 \theta\right]_{/ 4}^{\pi / 2}\)

= \(8 a^2\left[\pi+\frac{1}{3}-2-\frac{\pi}{2}\right]=\frac{4 a^2}{3}[3 \pi-10]\)

44. By changing into polar coordinates evaluate \(\iint \frac{x^2 y^2}{x^2+y^2} d x d y\) over the angular region between the circles.

Solution: 

Put x=r cos θ,y= r sin θ.

Then dx dy=r dr dθ and x+y=r.

For the circle x+y=a ⇒ r=a

⇒ r=a and x+y=b ⇒  r=b ⇒ r=b.

∴ \(\iint \frac{x^2 y^2}{x^2+y^2}\) dx dy \(=\int_{\theta=0}^{2 \pi} \int_{r=a}^b \frac{r^2 \cos ^2 \theta r^2 \sin ^2 \theta}{r^2} r d r d \theta\)

= \(\int_{\theta=0}^{2 \pi} \int_{r=a}^b \sin ^2 \theta \cos ^2 \theta \cdot r^3 d r d \theta\)

= \(\int_{\theta=0}^{2 \pi}\left[\frac{r^4}{4}\right]_a^b \sin ^2 \theta \cos ^2 \theta d \theta\)

= \(\frac{b^4-a^4}{4} \int_0^{2 \pi} \sin ^2 \theta \cos ^2 \theta d \theta\)

= \(\frac{b^4-a^4}{4} \cdot 2 \int_0^\pi \sin ^2 \theta \cos ^2 \theta d \theta\)

= \(\frac{b^4-a^4}{2} \times 2 \int_0^{\pi / 2} \sin ^2 \theta \cos ^2 \theta d \theta\)

= \(\left(b^4-a^4\right) \cdot \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{\pi}{2}=\frac{\left(b^4-a^4\right) \pi}{16}\)

45. By changing the variables evaluate \(\iint_R(x+y)^2 d x d y\) where R is the region bounded by the parallelogram x+y=0,x+y=1,2x-y=0,2x-y=4.

Solution:  Put x+y =u,2x-y=v.Then the given parallelogram reduces to a rectangle.

⇒ \(\frac{\partial(u, v)}{\partial(x, y)}\)

= \(\left|\begin{array}{ll}
\frac{\partial u}{\partial x} & \frac{\partial u}{\partial y} \\
\frac{\partial v}{\partial x} & \frac{\partial v}{\partial y}
\end{array}\right|\)

= \(\left|\begin{array}{rr}
1 & 1 \\
2 & -1
\end{array}\right|\)=-3 .

∴ Jacobian J = \(\frac{\partial(x, y)}{\partial(u, v)}=-\frac{1}{3}\) .

u.varies from 0 to 1 and v varies from 0 to 4.

∴ \(\iint_R(x+y)^2 d x d y=\int_{u=0}^1 \int_{v=0}^4 u^2\left(\frac{1}{3}\right) d u d v\)

= \(\frac{1}{3} \int_{v=0}^4 \frac{u^3}{3} d v=\frac{1}{9} \int_0^4 d v=\frac{4}{9} \text {. }\)

46. Change the order of integration in the double integral \(\int_0^{2 a} \int_{\sqrt{2 a x-x^2}}^{\sqrt{(2 a x)}} f(x, y) d x d y\).

Solution:  The given domain of integration is described by a line that starts from x=0 and moving parallel to itself, goes over to x=2a; the extremities of the moving line on the parts of the parabola y= 2ax and the circle xy=2ax in the first quadrant.

We now regard the same region as described by a line moving parallel to the x-axis instead of the y-axis. In this way, the domain of integration is subdivided into three sub-regions to each of which corresponds a double integral. Thus we have

⇒ \(\int_0^{2 a} \frac{\sqrt{2 a x}}{\sqrt{2 a x-x^2}} f d x d y\)

= \(\int_0^a \int_{y^2 / 2 a}^{a-\sqrt{\left(a^2-y^2\right)}} f d y d x\)

+\(\int_0^{2 a} \int_{a+\sqrt{a^2-y^2}}^{2 a} f d y d x+\int_a^{2 a} \int_{y^2 / 2 a}^{2 a} f d y d x\)

47. Change the order of integration in \(\int_0^{\rho \cos a} \int_{\tan a}^{\sqrt{\left(a^2-x^2\right)}} f(x, y) d x d y\) and verify result when f(x,y)=1.

Solution: The limits of integration are given by y = x tan α (a straight line), y= \(\sqrt{\left(a^2-x^2\right)}\), i.e., x²+y²= a² (a circle); x = 0 (y-axis) and x = a cos α  (a straight line). Clearly, the area of integration is OMNO.

The strips parallel to x- x-axis change their character at point M. Draw a straight line AM parallel to the x-axis and this divides the area OMNO into two portions OMA and AMN.

For the area OMA, the limits of x are from 0 to y cot α, and the limits of y are from 0 to y sin α. For the area AMN, the limits of x are from 0 to \(\sqrt{\left(a^2-y^2\right)}\), and the limits for are from a sin α  to a.

Hence changing the order of integration, we have \(\int_0^{\cos \alpha} \int_{x \tan \alpha}^{\sqrt{\left(a^2-x^2\right)}} f(x, y) d x d y\)

= \(\int_0^{\sin \alpha} \int_0^{y \cot \alpha} f(x, y) \cdot d x d y+\int_{a \sin \alpha}^\rho \int_0^{\sqrt{\left(a^2-y^2\right)}} f(x, y) d x d y\)

To verify result when f(x, y)=1,

L.H.S. =\(\int_0^{\cos \alpha} \int_{x \tan \alpha}^{\sqrt{\left(a^2-x^2\right)}} d x d y=\int_0^{\cos \alpha}\left\{\sqrt{\left(a^2-x^2\right)}-x \tan \alpha\right\} d x\)

= \(\frac{a}{2} \cos \alpha \cdot a \sin \alpha+\frac{a^2}{2} \text{Sin}^{-1}(\cos \alpha)-\frac{a^2 \cos ^2 \alpha}{2} \tan \alpha\)

= \(\frac{1}{2} a^2 \text{Sin}^{-1}\left\{\sin \left(\frac{\pi}{2}-\alpha\right)\right\}=\frac{1}{2} a^2\left(\frac{\pi}{2}-\alpha\right)\)

R.H.S. = \(\int_0^{\sin \alpha} \int_0^{\cot \alpha} d y d x+\int_{a \sin \alpha}^{\infty} \int_0^{\left.\sqrt{\left(a^2-y^2\right.}\right)} d y d x\)

= \(\int_0^{\sin \alpha} y \cot \alpha d y+\int_{a \sin \alpha}^0 \sqrt{\left(a^2-y^2\right)} d x\)

= \(\frac{1}{2} a^2 \sin \alpha \cot \alpha+\frac{a^2}{2} \cdot \frac{\pi}{2}-\left\{\frac{a}{2} \sin \alpha \cdot a \cos \alpha+\frac{a^2}{2} \cdot \alpha\right\}\)

= \(\frac{a^2}{2}\left(\frac{\pi}{2}-\alpha\right)\)

48. Change the order of integration in the double integral \(\int_0^{\infty} \int_x^{\infty} \frac{e^{-y}}{y} d x d y\) and hence find the value.

Solution: The limits of integration are given by the straight line y = x, y = ∞ x=0, and x= ∞ i.e., the region of integration is bounded by x = 0,y = x, and an ‘infinite boundary. Hence taking the strips parallel to the x-axis, the limits for y are from 0 to ∞.

Hence changing the order of integration, we have \(\int_0^{\infty} \int_x^{\infty} \frac{e^{-y}}{y} d x d y\)

= \(\int_0^{\infty} \int_0^y \frac{e^{-y}}{y} d y d x\) \(=\int_0^{\infty} \frac{e^{-y}}{y}[x]_0^y d y\)

= \(\int_0^{\infty} e^{-y} d y\)=1

49. Change the order of integration in double integral \(\int_0^p \int_0^x \frac{\phi^{\prime}(y) d x d y}{\sqrt{(a-x)(x-y)}}\) and hence find its value.

Solution: The region of integration is ONM. The limit for x are from y to a and limits for y are from 0 to a.

Hence \(\int_0^e \int_0^x \frac{\phi^{\prime}(y) d x d y}{\sqrt{(a-x)(x-y)}}\) \(=\int_0^a \int_y^g \frac{\phi^{\prime}(y) d y d x}{\sqrt{(a-x)(x-y)}}\)

To find the value, let x=a sin²θ +y cos²θ

Also (a-x)=(a-y) cos²θ, x-y=(a-y) sin²θ.

For the limits of  θ, when x=y, we have  y=a sin²θ+y cos²θ =(y-a) sin² θ=0

⇒θ=0 and when x=a,we have a=a sin ²θ+y cos² θ

⇒ (a-y) cos² θ =0 ⇒ θ =π/2

Thus the limits of θ bare from 0 to π/2

∴ Given integral = \(\int_0^2 \int_y^{\infty} \frac{\phi^{\prime}(y) d y d x}{\sqrt{(a-x)(x-y)}}\)

= \(\int_0^\pi \int_0^{\pi / 2} \frac{\phi^{\prime}(y) \cdot 2(a-y)(\sin \theta \cos \theta) d y d \theta}{(a-y)(\sin \theta \cos \theta)}\)

= \(2 \int_0^e \int_0^{\pi / 2} \phi^{\prime}(y) d y d \theta=2 \int_0^{\infty} \phi^{\prime}(y) \cdot \frac{\pi}{2} d y\)

= \(\pi[\phi(y)]_0^a=\pi[\phi(a)-\phi(0)]\)

50. Change the order of integration in \(\int_0^{2 a} \int_0^{\sqrt{2a x-x}} \frac{\phi^{\prime}(y)\left(x^2+y^2\right) x d x d y}{\sqrt{4 a^2 x^2-\left(x^2+y^2\right)}}\) and hence evaluate it.

Solution:  Clearly, the area of integration is OMNO.

Solving x²-2ax+y²=0 for x, we get x=a ± \(\sqrt{\left(a^2-y^2\right)}\)

hence limits of x are from a-\(\sqrt{\left(a^2-y^2\right)}\) to a+ \(\sqrt{\left(a^2-y^2\right)}\)

The limits of y are from 0 t0 a.

Hence, given integral becomes \(\int_0^e \int_{a-\sqrt{\left(a^2-y^2\right)}}^{a+\sqrt{\left(a^2-y\right)}} \frac{\phi^{\prime}(y)\left(x^2+y^2\right) x d y d x}{\sqrt{4 a^2 x^2-\left(x^2+y^2\right)^2}}\)

To evaluate the integral, put \(x^2+y^2=t\).

2 x d x=d t.

Then = \(\int_0^2 \int_{a-\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{\left(a^2-y^2\right)}}^{\left.a^2-y^2\right)} \frac{\phi^{\prime}(y)\left(x^2+y^2\right) x d y d x}{\sqrt{4 a^2 x^2-\left(x^2+y^2\right)^2}} \)

= \(\frac{1}{2} \int_0^1 \int_{t_1}^{t^2} \frac{\phi^{\prime}(y) t d y d x}{\sqrt{4 a^2\left(t-y^2\right)-t^2}}\)

= \(-\frac{1}{4} \int_0^2 \int_{t_1}^2 \frac{\phi^{\prime}(y)\left(4 a^2-2 t\right) d y d t}{\sqrt{\left(4 a^2 t-t^2-4 a^2 y^2\right)}}+\int_0^2 \int_{t_1}^2 \frac{\phi^{\prime}(y) \cdot a^2 d y d t}{\sqrt{4 a^2\left(a^2-y^2\right)-\left(2 a^2+t^2\right)}}\)

= \(-\frac{1}{2} \int_0^\rho \phi^{\prime}(y)\left[\sqrt{4 a^2 t-t^2-4 a^2 y^2}+a^2 \text{Sin}^{-1}\left\{\frac{-2 a^2+t}{\sqrt{4 a^2\left(a^2-y^2\right)}}\right\}\right]_{t_1}^{t_2} d y\)

51. Show how the change in the order of integration leads to the evaluation of \(\int_0^{\infty} \frac{\sin r x}{x} d x \text { from } \int_0^{\infty} \int_0^{\infty} e^{-x y} \sin r x d x d y\)

Solution: 

Let \(I=\int_0^{\infty} \int_0^{\infty} e^{-x y} \sin r x d x d y\)

= \(\int_0^{\infty} \sin r\left[\frac{e^{-x y}}{-x}\right] d x=\int_0^{\infty} \frac{\sin r x}{x} d x=x\)…..(1)

Again, \(I=\int_0^{\infty} \int_0^{\infty} e^{-x y} \sin r x d x d y=\int_0^{\infty}\left[\int_0^{\infty} e^{-x y} \sin r x d x\right] d y\)

= \(\int_0^{\infty} \frac{r d y}{\left(r^2+y^2\right)}=\left[\text{Tan}^{-1}\frac{y}{r}\right]_0^{\infty}=\pi / 2\)……(2)

Hence from (1) and (2) we have \(\int_0^{\infty} \frac{\sin r x}{x} d x=\pi / 2\).

52. Change the order of integration in \(\int_0^a \int_0^{\sqrt{a^2-y^2}}\left(x^2+y^2\right) d y d x\).

Solution:  The limits on the inner integrals are functions of y and these are x limits. These limits are obtained by considering horizontal strips. This region of integration is surrounded by x=0, x=\(\sqrt{a^2-y^2}\), y=0, y=a, and this region is shown as a shaded area in the figure.

Now we have to consider vertical strips for changing the order of integration. Imagine a vertical strip with one end on the axis (y=0) and the other end on the curve x²+y²=a² (y=\(\sqrt{a^2-y^2}\)).  To cover the region, this strip has to be moved from x=0 to x=a.

Hence the new equivalent double integral is \(\int_0^a \int_0^{\sqrt{a^2-x^2}}\left(x^2+y^2\right) d y d x\)

= \(\int_0^a\left[x^2 y+\frac{y^3}{3}\right]_0^{\sqrt{a^2-x^2}} d x\)

= \(\int_0^a x^2 \sqrt{a^2-x^2} d x+\int_0^a \frac{\left(a^2-x^2\right)^{3 / 2}}{3} d x\)

⇒ \(\int_0^a x^2 \sqrt{a^2-x^2} d x=\int_0^{\pi / 2} a^2 \sin ^2 \theta \cdot a \cos \theta \cdot a \cos \theta d \theta\)(where x=\(a \sin \theta\))

= \(a^4 \int_0^{\pi / 2} \sin ^2 \theta \cos ^2 \theta d \theta=a^4 \cdot \frac{1}{4} \cdot \frac{1}{2} \frac{\pi}{2}=\frac{\pi a^4}{16}\)

⇒ \(\int_0^a \frac{\left(a^2-x^2\right)^{3 / 2}}{3} d x\)

= \(\int_0^{\pi / 2} \frac{a^3 \cos ^3 \theta a \cos \theta}{3} d \theta=\frac{a^{4^{\pi / 2}}}{3} \int_0 \cos ^4 \theta d \theta\)

= \(\frac{a^4}{3} \cdot \frac{3}{4} \cdot \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{\pi}{2}=\frac{\pi a^4}{16}\)

Hence \(\int_0^a \int_0^{\sqrt{a^2-x^2}}\left(x^2+y^2\right) d y d x=\frac{\pi a^4}{16}+\frac{\pi a^4}{16}=\frac{\pi a^4}{8}\).

53. Change the order of integration and evaluate \(\int_0^4 a \int_{x^2 / 4 a}^{2 \sqrt{a x}} d x d y\).

Solution: The limits on the inner integral are functions of x= and these are y limits.

These limits are obtained by considering vertical strips. The region is bounded by  y\(=\frac{x^2}{4 a}\),y=\(\sqrt{a x}\),x=0,x=4a and the

To change the order of integration we consider a horizontal strip with one end on the y²=4ax i..e. x=\(=\frac{y^2}{4 a}\) and the other end on x²=4ay  i.e, x=2\(\sqrt{a y}\)

This strip has to be slid be from y=0 to y= 4a to cover the region.

Hence the double integral with new limits is \(\int_0^{4 a} \int_{y^2 / 4 a}^{2 \sqrt{a y}} d y d x=\int_0^{4 a}\left[\int_{y^2 / 4 a}^{2 \sqrt{a y}} d x\right] d y\)

= \(\int_0^{4 a}[x]_{y^2 / 4 a}^{2 \sqrt{a y}} d y=\int_0^{4 a} 2 \sqrt{a y}-\frac{y^2}{4 a} d y\)

= \(2 \sqrt{a} \cdot\left[\frac{y^{3 / 2}}{3 / 2}\right]_0^{4 a}-\frac{1}{4 a}\left[\frac{y^3}{3}\right]_0^{4 a}\)

= \(\frac{4 \sqrt{a}}{3}\left[2^3 a^{3 / 2}\right]-\frac{1}{4 a}\left[\frac{64 a^3}{3}\right]\)

= \(\frac{32 a^2}{3}-\frac{16 a^2}{3}=\frac{16 a^2}{3}\).

54. Change the order of integration and evaluate \(\int_0^a \int_2^{2 a-x} x y d y d x\).

Solution: The limits on the inner integral are functions of x and these are limits of y. These are obtained by considering vertical strips. The region is bounded by

y\(=\frac{x^2}{ a}\) , y=2a-x, x=0, x=a and this is

To change the order of integration we consider horizontal strips. Since two different curves surround the region let us divide the region into two regions R₁, and R_2, and in each region, we consider a horizontal strip.

Integral over \(R_1=\int_0^a \int_0^{\sqrt{a y}} x y d x d y\).

Integral over \(R_2=\int_a^{2 a} \int_0^{2 a-y} x y d x d y\)

Thus given the integral of changing the order of integration, it becomes \(\int_0^a \int_0^{\sqrt{a y}} x y d x d y+\int_a^{2 a} \int_0^{2 a-y} x y d x d y\)

= \(\int_0^a\left[\frac{x^2 y}{2}\right]_0^{\sqrt{a y}} d y+\int_a^{2 a}\left[\frac{x^2 y}{2}\right]_0^{2 a-y} d y\)

= \(\int_0^a \frac{a y^2}{2} d y+\int_a^{2 a} \frac{y(2 a-y)^2}{2} d y\)

= \(\frac{a}{2} \int_0^a y^2 d y+\int_a^{2 a} \frac{y\left(4 a^2+y^2-4 a y\right)}{2} d y\)

= \(\frac{a}{2}\left[\frac{y^3}{3}\right]_0^a+\frac{1}{2}\left[\frac{4 a^2 y^2}{2}+\frac{y^4}{4}-\frac{4 a y^3}{3}\right]_a^{2 a}\)

= \(\frac{a^4}{6}+\frac{1}{2}\left[\frac{4 a^2 4 a^2}{2}+\frac{4 a^2 \cdot 4 a^2}{4}-\frac{32 a^4}{3}-\frac{4 a^4}{2}-\frac{a^4}{4}+\frac{4 a^4}{3}\right]\)

= \(\frac{a^4}{6}+\frac{5 a^4}{24}=\frac{9 a^4}{24}=\frac{3}{8} a^4\).

55. Change the order of integration and evaluate \(\int_0^{2 a} \int_0^{\sqrt{a^2-(x-a)^2}} d x d y\)

Solution:  The region of integrals is surrounded by

y=0,y=\(\sqrt{a^2-(x-a)^2}\) , x= 0 and x=2a.

y=\(\sqrt{a^2-(x-a)^2}\) ⇒y²=a²-(x-a)²

⇒ (x-a)²+ y²=a².

This represents a circle with center (a,0) and radius a.

The region is in the given integral the limits are obtained by considering the vertical strip.

Now imagine a horizontal strip where both ends slide on two parts of the circle in the first quadrant.

(x-a)²+y²=a² ⇒ (x-a)²= a²-y² ⇒ x-a =± \(\sqrt{a^2-y^2}\) ⇒ x=a±\(\sqrt{a^2-y^2}\)

Thus the end L of the horizontal strip moves on a-\(\sqrt{a^2-y^2}\) whereas the end M of the horizontal strip moves on a + \(\sqrt{a^2-y^2}\).

To cover the region this strip slides from y = 0 to y = a.

Thus the given double integral with the change of order of integration becomes

⇒ \(\int_0^a \int_{a-\sqrt{a^2-y^2}}^{a+\sqrt{a^2-y^2}} d x d y=\int_0^a[x] \frac{a-\sqrt{a^2-y^2-y^2}}{[x} d y\)

= \(\int_0^a a+\sqrt{a^2-y^2}-a+\sqrt{a^2-y^2} d y\)

= \(2 \int_0^a \sqrt{a^2-y^2} d y=2 \cdot\left[\frac{y \sqrt{a^2-y^2}}{2}+\frac{a^2}{2} \text{Sin}^{-1} \frac{y}{a}\right]_0^a\)

= \( 2\left[\frac{a^2}{2} \cdot \frac{\pi}{2}\right]=\frac{\pi a^2}{2}\) .

56. Evaluate the following integral by changing the order \(\int_0^3 \int_1^{\sqrt{4-y}}(x+y) d x d y\).

Solution:  I=\(\int_0^3 \int_1^{\sqrt{4-y}}(x+y) d x d y\)

The integration first w.r.t. ‘x’ then w.r.t. ‘x’  The integration w.r.t. ‘x’ corresponds to along one edge of the horizontal strip and the integration w.r.t. ‘y’ corresponds to sliding the strip from y = 0 to y = 3. Horizontal strip ends lie on x = 1, x =\(\sqrt{4-y}\) i.e., y = 4- x². The region of integration is ABC.

Change of order of integration: On change of order of integration, we integrate first w.r.t. y from y=0 to y=4-x² then w.r.t x from x=1 to x=2

I = \(\int_1^2 \int_0^{4-x^2}(x+y) d y d x=\int_1^2\left[x y+\frac{y^2}{2}\right]_0^{4-x^2} d x\)

= \(\int_1^1\left[x\left(4-\dot{x}^2\right)+\frac{\left(4-x^2\right)^2}{2}\right] d x\)

= \(\int_1^2\left(4 x-x^3+\frac{x^4+16-8 x^2}{2}\right) d x\)

= \(\left[2 x^2-\frac{x^4}{4}+\frac{x^5}{10}+8 x-\frac{4 x^3}{3}\right]_1^2\)

= \(\left(8-4+\frac{16}{5}+16-\frac{32}{3}\right)-\left(\frac{1}{10}+2-\frac{1}{4}+8-\frac{4}{3}\right)=\frac{241}{60}\)

57. By changing the order of integration, evaluate \(\int_0^a \int_y^a \frac{x}{x^2+y^2} d x d y\)

Solution: The limits on the inner integral are functions of y and these are limits of x. These are obtained by considering horizontal strips. The region is a triangle bounded by y = 0, x = a, and y=x.

To change the order of integration, we consider the vertical strip.

So the limits of integration are y = 0 to y=x and x = 0 to x = a. On changing the order of integration, given integral becomes

⇒ \(\int_0^a \int_0^a \frac{x}{x^2+y^2} d y d x\)

= \(\int_0^a\left[\frac{1}{x} \text{Tan}^{-1} \frac{y}{x}\right]_0^x \cdot x d x\)

= \(\int_0^a \frac{1}{2} \text{Tan}^{-1}(1) \cdot x d x=\int_0^a \frac{\pi}{4} d x=\frac{\pi a}{4}\) .

58. Change the order of integration and evaluate the double integral \(\int_0^1 \int_1^{e^x} d y d x\).

Solution: The limits on the inner integral are functions of x and these are limits of y. These are obtained by considering the vertical strip. The region of integration is bounded by y=1, x=1 y =e^x To change the order of integration we consider the horizontal strip. So the limits of integration are x = 1 to x = log y and y = 1 to y = e.

By changing the order of integration the given integral becomes \(\int_1^e \int_{\log y}^1 d x d y=\int_1^e[x]_{\log y}^1 d y=\int_1^e[1-\log y] d y=[y-y \log y+y]_1^e=e-2\).

= \(\int_0^a \int_0^a\left[x^2 z+y^2 z+\frac{z^3}{3}\right] d x d y\)

= \(\int_0^a \int_0^a\left(x^2 a+y^2 a+\frac{1}{3} a^3\right) d x d y=\int_0^a\left[x^2 a y+\frac{1}{3} y^3 a+\frac{1}{3} a^3 y\right] d x\)

= \(\int_0^a\left(x^2 a^2+\frac{1}{3} a^4+\frac{1}{3} a^4\right) d x=\left[\frac{1}{3} x^3 a^2+\frac{1}{3} a^4 x+\frac{1}{3} a^4 x\right]=a^5\)

13. Evaluate \(\iiint_V(2 x+y)\)dxdy dz, where V is the closed region bounded by the cylinder z = 4- x² and the planes  x= 0, y = 0, y = 2 and z = 0.

Solution:

Given

\(\iiint_V(2 x+y)\)dxdy dz

Here a column parallel to the z-axis is bounded by the plane z=0 and the surface z=4-x of the cylinder.

This cylinder z=4-x meets the z-axis,x=0,y=0, at(0,0,4) and the x-axis , y=0, z=0 at (2,0,0) in the given region.

Therefore, it is evident that the limits of integration for z are from 0 to 4-x, for from 0 to 2 and for x from 0 to 2.

Hence the given integral

14. Use the substitution x+y + z = u,y + z = uv, z = uvw to evaluate the integral \(\iiint[x y z(1-x-y-z)]^{1 / 2}\)dx dy dz taken over the tetrahedral volume enclosed by the planes x=0, y = 0, z = 0 and x+y + z= 1.

Solution:

Given

x+y + z = u,y + z = uv, z = uvw

Here x = \(u(1-v), y=u v(1-u v), z=u v w\).

∴ \(\frac{\partial(x, y, z)}{\partial(u, v, w)}\)

= \(\left|\begin{array}{ccc}
1-v & -u & 0 \\
v(1-w) & u(1-w) & -u v \\
v w & u w & u v
\end{array}\right|=u^2 v\)

The tetrahedral volume is covered by taking the limits for u from 0 to 1, v from 0 to and w from 0 to 1.

Required integral = \(\int_0^1 \int_0^1 \int_0^1\left[u^3 v^{2 w}(1-u)(1-v)(1-w)\right]^{1 / 2} u^2 v d u d v d w\)

= \(\int_0^1 u^{7 / 2}(1-u)^{1 / 2} d u \int_0^1 v^2(1-v)^{1 / 2} d v \int_0^1 w^{1 / 2}(1-w)^{1 / 2} d w \text {. }\)

Putting u = \(\sin ^2 \theta, \nu=\sin ^2 \phi, w=\sin ^2 t\) the integral becomes

∴ \(\int_0^{\pi / 2} 2 \sin ^2 \theta \cos ^2 \theta d \theta \int_0^{\pi / 2} 2 \sin ^5 \phi \cos \phi d \phi \int_0^{\pi / 2} 2 \sin ^2 t \cos ^2 t d t=\frac{\pi^2}{1920}\)

Solution:  x= r sinθ cos Φ, y= r sin θ sin Φ, z= r cosθ.

dx dy dz \(=\frac{\partial(x, y, z)}{\partial(r, \theta, \phi)}\) dr dθ dΦ=-r² sin dr dθ dΦ

To cover the positive octant of the sphere r varies from 0 to 0 varies from 0 to π/2 and θ varies from π /2  to 0.

Required integral = \(\int_{r=0}^a \int_{\phi=0}^{\pi / 2} \int_{\theta=\pi / 2}^0 r^3 \sin ^2 \theta \cos \theta \sin \phi \cos \phi\left(-r^2 \sin ^2 \theta\right) d r d \theta d \phi\)

= \(\int_{r=0}^a \int_{\theta=0 \phi=0}^{\pi / 2} \int^{\pi / 2} r^5 \sin \phi \cos \phi \sin ^3 \theta \cos \theta d r d \theta d \phi\)

= \(\int_0^a r^5 d r \int_0^{\pi / 2} \sin \phi \cos \phi d \phi \int_0^{\pi / 2} \sin ^2 \theta \cos \theta d \theta=\frac{a^6}{48}\)

Solution: \(\iint_R\)∫(x²+y² + z² )dx dy dz

R is the region bounded by the sphere x²+y² + z² +  = 1

Change to spherical polar co-ordinates, we have

x = r sin θ  cos Φ , y=sin θ  sin Φ, z = r cos θ  , dx dy dz = r² sinθ  dr dθ  dΦ

I = \(\iiint_{R^{\prime}} r^2 \cdot r^2 \sin \theta d r d \theta d \phi\)

Over the region \(R^1: r\) varies from 0 to 1, θ varies from 0 to \(\pi, \phi\) varies from 0 to \(2 \pi\)

I = \(\int_{\phi=0}^{2 \pi} \int_{\theta=0}^\pi \int_0^1 r^4 \sin \theta d r d \theta d \phi\)

= \(\int_{\phi=0}^{2 \pi} \int_{\theta=0}^\pi \frac{r^5}{5} \sin \theta d \theta d \phi\)

= \(\frac{1}{5} \int_{\phi=0}^{2 \pi} \int_{\theta=0}^\pi \sin \theta d \theta d \phi\)

= \(\frac{1}{5} \int_{\phi=0}^{2 \pi}(-\cos \theta)_0^\pi d \phi=\int_{\phi=0}^{2 \pi} \frac{2}{5} d \phi\)

= \(\left(\frac{2}{5} \phi\right)_0^{2 \pi}=\frac{4 \pi}{5}\)

17. Evaluate \(\int_0^1 \int_0^{\sqrt{1-x^2}} \int_0^{\sqrt{1-x^2-y^2}} \frac{d z d y d x}{\sqrt{1-x^2-y^2-z^2}}\) dz dy dx coordinates. 0 by changing to a spherical polar

Solution:
Here the regeion of integration is bounded by z=0, z=\(\sqrt{1-x^2-y^2}\): y=0, y=\(\sqrt{1-x^2}\); x=0, x=1 which is the sphere x+y+z=1 is the positive octant.

To change spherical polar coordinates,

Put x=r sin θ cos Φ, y= r sin θ sin Φ, z= r cos θ  so that x²+y²+z²=r²

∴ f(x,y,z) \(=\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-x^2-y^2-z^2}}\)=\(\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-r^2}}\)

Note that r varies from 0 to 1,θ varies from 0 t0 π/2 and Φ varies from 0 to π/2.

Hence the given triple integral is equivalent to \(\int_0^{\pi / 2} \int_0^{\pi / 2} \int_0^1 r^2 \sin \theta \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{1-r^2}} d r d \theta d \phi\)

= \(\int_0^{\pi / 2} \int_0^{\pi / 2} \int_0^1(\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-r^2}}-\sqrt{1-r^2})) \sin \theta d r d \theta d \phi\)

= \(\int_0^{\pi / 2} \int_0^{\pi / 2} \sin \theta\left[\text{Sin}^{-1} r-\left(\frac{r \sqrt{1-r^2}}{2}+\frac{1}{2} \text{Sin}^{-1} r\right)\right]_0^1 d \theta d \phi\)

= \(\int_0^{\pi / 2} \int_0^{\pi / 2} \sin \theta \cdot \frac{\pi}{4} d \theta d \phi=\frac{\pi}{4} \int_0^{\pi / 2}[-\cos \theta]_0^{\pi / 2} d \phi\)

= \(\frac{\pi}{4} \int_0^{\pi / 2} d \phi=\frac{\pi}{4} \cdot \frac{\pi}{2}=\frac{\pi^2}{8}\)

18. Evaluate ∫∫∫ z² dx dy dz taken over the volume bounded by the surfaces x² +y² = a², x² +y² = z and z = 0.

Solution: The limits of z=0 are z= x+y   the limits of y and the limits of x are x=-a to x=a.

∴ I = \(\iiint z^2 d x d y d z=\int_{x=-a}^{x=a}\left[\int_{y=-\sqrt{a^2-x^2}}^{y=\sqrt{a^2-x^2}}\left\{\int_{z=0}^{z=x^2+y^2} z^2 d z\right\} d y\right] d x\)

= \(\int_{x=-a}^{x=a}\left\{\int_{y=-\sqrt{a^2-x^2}}^{y=\sqrt{a^2-x^2}}\left[\frac{z^3}{3}\right]_{z=0}^{z=x^2+y^2} d y\right\} d x\)

= \(\int_{x=-a}^{x=a}\left[\int_{y=-\sqrt{a^2-x^2}}^{\sqrt{a^2-x^2}} \frac{\left(x^2+y^2\right)^3}{3}\right] d x\)

= \(\int_{x=-a}^{x=a} \iint_{y=-\sqrt{a^2-x^2}}^{y=x^2} \frac{1}{3}\left(x^6+3 x^4 y^2+3 x^2 y^4+y^6\right) d y d x\)

= \(\frac{2}{3} \int_{x=-a}^{x=a}\left[x^6 y+3 x^4 \frac{y^3}{3}+3 x^2 \frac{y^5}{5}+\frac{y^7}{7}\right] d x\)

= \(\frac{4}{3} \int_0^a\left[x^6+3 x^4 \frac{\left(a^2-x^2\right)}{3}+\frac{3 x^2\left(a^2-x^2\right)}{5}+\frac{\left(a^2-x^2\right)^3}{7}\right] \sqrt{a^2-x^2} d x\)

Put \(x=a \sin \theta\).

Then \(d x=a \cos \theta d \theta. x=0, a \Rightarrow \theta=0, \pi / 2\).

∴ I = \(\frac{4}{3} \int_0^{\pi / 2}\left[a^6 \sin ^6 \theta+a^6 \sin ^4 \theta \cos ^2 \theta+\frac{3}{5} a^6 \sin ^2 \theta \cos ^4 \theta+\frac{a^6}{7} \cos ^6 \theta\right] a \cos \theta a \cos \theta d \theta\)

= \(\frac{4 a^8}{3} \int_{\theta=0}^{\theta=\pi / 2}\left(\sin ^6 \theta \cos ^2 \theta+\sin ^4 \theta \cos ^4 \theta+\frac{3}{5} \sin ^2 \theta \cos ^6 \theta+\frac{1}{7} \cos ^8 \theta\right) d \theta\)

= \(\frac{4 a^8}{3}[\frac{1}{8} \times \frac{5}{6} \times \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{\pi}{2}+\frac{3}{8} \times \frac{1}{6} \times \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{1}{2}\)

x \(\frac{\pi}{2}+\frac{3}{5} \times \frac{5}{8} \times \frac{3}{6} \times \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{\pi}{2}+\frac{1}{7} \times \frac{7}{8}\)

x \(\frac{5}{6} \times \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{\pi}{2}]\)

= \(\frac{4 a^8}{3}\left[\frac{15 \pi+9 \pi+9 \pi+15 \pi}{8 \times 6 \times 4 \times 2 \times 2}\right]=\frac{48 \pi a^8}{3(8 \times 6 \times 2 \times 2)}=\frac{\pi a^8}{12}\)

19. Using double integral find the area enclosed by the curves y = 2x² and y² = 4x.

Solution:
The region of integration is the region bounded by y² = 4x and y = 2x²

To find A, solve the equations y² = 4x and y = 2x²

y = 2x² ⇒ y² = 4x⁴⇒4x⁴ = 4 ⇒ x(x³-l) = 0

⇒x = 0, 1.

∴A is (1,1)

Required area =\(\iint_R d x d y\)

Take a strip PQ parallel toy axis with P lies only = 2x², Q lies on y² = 4x ⇒ y = 2\(\sqrt{x}\)

The limits of are y = 2x² to y = 2\(\sqrt{x}\) and the limits ofx are x = 0 to x = 1.

Required Area = \(\int_0^1 \int_{2 x^2}^{2 \sqrt{x}} d x d y=\int_0^1 [y x_{2 x^2}^{2 \sqrt{x}} d x=\int_0^1\left[2 \sqrt{x}-2 x^2\right] d x\)

= \(\left[\frac{2 x^{3 / 2}}{3 / 2}-2 \frac{x^3}{3}\right]_0^1=\frac{4}{3}-\frac{2}{3}=\frac{2}{3}.\)

20. Find the smaller of the areas bounded by y = 2- x and x² +y² = 4 using double integral.

To find limits for y, take a strip PQ parallel to the they-axis with P lies on y = 2 -x and Q lies on the circle x²+y² = 4.

y limits are \(y=2-x\) to \(y=\sqrt{4-x^2}\) and x limits are x=0 to x=2.

∴ A = \(\int_0^2 \int_{2-x}^{\sqrt{4-x^2}} d x d y=\int_0^2\left[\int_{2-x}^{\sqrt{4-x^2}} d y\right] d x=\int_0^2[y] d x\)

= \(\int_0^{\sqrt{4-x^2}}\left[\sqrt{4-x^2}-(2-x)\right] d x\)

= \(\left[\frac{x}{2} \sqrt{4-x^2}+\frac{4}{2} \text{Sin}^{-1} \frac{x}{2}-2 x+\frac{x^2}{2}\right]\)

= \(0+2\left(\text{Sin}^{-1} 1-\text{Sin}^{-1} 0\right)-2 \cdot 2+\frac{4}{2}\)

21. Find the area bounded by the parabola y² = 4-x and y² = 4 -4x as a double integral and evaluate it.

Solution:

Given y² = 4− x =− (x- 4) is a parabola with vertex (4, 0) and towards the negative x-axis, axis of symmetry the x-axis. y² = 4 − 4x = − 4(x − 1) is a parabola with vertex (1,0) and towards the negative x-axis, axis of symmetry the x-axis.

To find the points of intersection, solve y² = 4- x and y² = 4- 4x.

∴ 4 −x = 4- 4x ⇒ 3x = 0 ⇒ x = 0 and y² = 4- x ⇒  y² = 4  ⇒ y = ±4 and the points of intersection are (0, 2), (0,- 2).

The region is the shaded region in the figure.

Both curves are symmetric about x-axis.

Required area A=2 (Area above the x-axis)=2∫\(\int_R\)dx dy

It is convenient to take strip PQ  parallel to the x-axis with P lies on y² = 4− 4x and Q lies on y² = 4−x.

Now y² = 4− 4x ⇒ x = 1 −y² /4 and y² = 4− x ⇒ x = 4 −y² and the limits of y are y = 0,y = 2.

Required area, A = \(2 \int_0^2\left[\int_{1-y^2 / 4}^{4-y^2} d x\right] d y=2 \int_0^2[x] y_{1-y^2 / 4}^{4-y^2} d y=2 \int_0^2\left[4-y^2-\left(1-\frac{y^2}{4}\right)\right] d y \)

= \(2 \int_0^2\left(3-\frac{3}{4} y^2\right) d y=2\left[3 y-\frac{3}{4} \frac{y^3}{3}\right]=2\left[3 \times 2-\frac{8}{4}\right]=2[6-2]=8\)

22. Find the area bounded by x² = 4y and x− 2y + 4 = 0 using double integral.

Solution: Solving the given curves x² = 4y, x −2y + 4 = 0;

We get x² =4 \(\left(\frac{x+4}{2}\right)\) ⇒. x² −  2x- 8 = 0

⇒ (x- 4)(x + 2) = 0 ⇒ x = 4 or −2.

Ifx = 4 theny = 4; Ifx =− 2 then y = 1.

The points of intersection are (−2, 1) and (4, 4).

Take strip PQ parallel to y-axis with P lies on x2 = 4y and Q lies on x − 2y + 4 = 0.

∴ The limits of y are \(y=\frac{x^2}{4}\) to \(y=\frac{x+4}{2}\) and the limits of x are x=-2 to x=4.

Required area = \(\int_{-2}^4 \int_{x^2 / 4}^{(x+4) / 2} d x d y=\int_{x=-2}^{x=4}\left[\int_{y=x^2 / 4}^{y=(x+4) / 2} d y\right] d x=\int_{-2}^4[y] \int_{y=x / 4}^{y=(x+4) / 2} d x\)

= \(\int_{-2}^4\left(\frac{x+4}{2}-\frac{x^2}{4}\right) d x=\left[\frac{x^2}{4}+2 x-\frac{x^3}{12}\right]_{-2}^4=\left(4+8-\frac{16}{3}\right)-\left(1-4+\frac{2}{3}\right)=15-\frac{18}{3}=9\) .

23. Find the smaller area bounded \(\frac{x^2}{9}+\frac{y^2}{4}\) = 1 and \(\frac{x}{3}+\frac{y}{2}\) = 1 using double integral.

Solution:

The curves \(\frac{x^2}{9}+\frac{y^2}{4}\)=1, \(\frac{x}{3}+\frac{y}{2}\) =1 intersect at A(3,0), B(0,2).

Take strip PQ parallel to y-axis with P lies on \(\frac{x^2}{9}+\frac{y^2}{4}\) =1 and Q lies on \(\frac{x}{3}+\frac{y}{2}\) =1.

The limits of integration are y-varies from

y = \(2(1-x / 3)\) to \(y=2 \sqrt{1-x^2 / 9}\) and x varies from x=0 to x=3.

= \(\int_0^3\left[2 \sqrt{1-\frac{x^2}{9}}-2\left(1-\frac{x}{3}\right)\right] d x\)

= \(2\left[\frac{x}{6} \sqrt{1-\frac{x^2}{9}}+\frac{3}{2} \text{Sin}^{-1} \frac{x}{3}-x+\frac{x^2}{6}\right]\)

= \(\frac{3 \pi}{2}-6+3=\frac{3 \pi}{2}-3=\frac{3(\pi-2)}{2}\)

24. Find the smaller area bounded by y² = 4x, x +y = 3 and x-axis using double integral

Solution: Solving y= 4x², x+y=3, we get y²= 4(3-y) = y²+4y-12=0

= (y+6)(y-2) =0 = y=-6 or 2

Take strip parallel to x-axis with P lies on y²=4x and Q lies on x+y=3.

To find the smaller area bounded by y=4x²,x+y=3 and x-axis, the limits of integration are x varies from x=y²/4 x=3-y and y varies from y=0 to y=2.

The required area = \(\int_0^2 \int_{y^2 / 4}^{3-3} d y d x=\int_0^2[\int_{y^2 / 4}^{3-y} d x d y\)

= \(\int_0^2[x] \cdot d y=\int_0^{3-y}\left[3-y-\frac{y^2}{4}\right] d y=\left[3 y-\frac{y^2}{2}-\frac{y^3}{12}\right]\)

= \(6-2-\frac{2}{3}=\frac{10}{3}\)

25. Find the area of the ellipse \(\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}\)= 1 by double integration.

Solution: The area of the ellipse = 4 (Area in the first quadrant)

Take strip PQ parallel toy-axis with P on x-axis and Q on the ellipse.

The limits of integration are y varies from y = 0 to y = \(b \sqrt{1-x^2 / a^2}\) and x varies from x = 0 to x = a.

∴ Area of the ellipse = \(4 \int_0^a \int_0^{b \sqrt{1-x^2 / a^2}} d x d y\)

= \(4 \int_0^a[y]_0^{b \sqrt{1-x^2 / a^2}} d x=4 \int_0^a b \sqrt{1-\frac{x^2}{a^2}} d x\)

= \(\frac{4 b}{d} \int_0^a \sqrt{a^2-x^2} d x=\frac{4 b}{a}\left[\frac{x}{a} \sqrt{a^2-x^2}+\frac{a^2}{2} \text{Sin}^{-1} \frac{x}{a}\right]\)

= \(\frac{4 b}{a}\left(\frac{a^2}{2} \frac{\pi}{2}\right)=\pi a b\) .

Equation of \(\stackrel{\leftrightarrow}{A D}\)  is \(\frac{y-0}{0-1}\)= \(\frac{x-1}{1-0}\)……. (2)

Area of \(\triangle A B D=\iint_{A B D} d x d y\).

Take a strip PQ parallel to the x-axis with P on (2) and Q is on (1).

∴ x=-y+1 and x=2 y+1 and y varies from 0 to 1.

= \(\int_0^1 3 y d y=3\left[\frac{y^2}{2}\right]=\frac{3}{2}\) .

∴ Area of the parallelogram A B C D is = \(2 \times \frac{3}{2}=3\)

27. Find the area bounded between ∫r = 2 cos θ and r = 4 cos θ .

Solution: Area A = \(\iint_R r d r d \theta\)where the region R is the region between the circles r = 2 cos θ and r = 4 cos θ

The area is the region outside the circle r = 2 cos θ and inside, the circle r = 4 cos θ.

We first integrate w.r.to r and so, we take the radius vector OPQ.

When PQ is moved to cover the area A, r varies from r = 2 cosθ to r = 4 cos θ, and 0 varies from 0 =- π/2 to θ = π/2.

∴ Area  A = \(\int_{-\pi / 2}^{\pi / 2} \int_{2 \cos \theta}^{4 \cos \theta} r d r d \theta\)

= \(\int_{-\pi / 2}^{\pi / 2}\left[\frac{r^2}{2}\right]_{2 \cos \theta}^{4 \cos \theta} d \theta\)

28. Find the area of one loop of the lemniscate r² = a² cos 2θ.

Solution:

Given r² = a² cos 2 θ

Area of the loop = \(\iint_R r d r d \theta\), where R is the region as in the figure.

Since the loop is symmetric about the initial line, the required area is twice the area above the initial line. First, we integrate w.r.to r.

In the region, take a radical strip OP, its ends are r=0 and r= a\(\sqrt{\cos 2 \theta}\)

When the strip is moved to cover the region R, θ varies from 0 to π/4

= \(\int_0^{\pi / 4} a^2 \cos 2 \theta d \theta\)

= \(a^2 \int_0^{\pi / 4} \cos 2 \theta d \theta=a^2\left[\frac{\sin 2 \theta}{2}\right]\)

= \(\frac{a^2}{2}\left(\sin \frac{\pi}{2}-\sin 0\right)=\frac{a^2}{2}\)

When r = 0, a sin 3θ  = 0⇒ 3θ = 0 or π⇒0 = 0 or π /3 and r varies from r = 0 to r = a sin 3θ

Area of the loop = \(\int_0^{\pi / 3} \int_0^{a \sin 3 \theta} r d r d \theta\)

= \(\int_0^{\pi / 3}\left[\frac{r^2}{2}\right]_0^{a \sin 3 \theta} d \theta=\frac{1}{2} \int_0^{\pi / 3} a^2 \sin ^2 3 \theta d \theta\)

= \(\frac{a^2}{4}\left[\frac{\pi}{3}-\frac{\sin 2 \pi-\sin 0}{6}\right]=\frac{\pi a^2}{12}\)

30. Find the area of the cardioid r = a(1+ cos θ).

Solution: Given r = a (1 + cos θ)

Area = ∫\(\int_R r d r d \theta\)

Now r varies from 0 to a (1 + cosθ ) and θ varies from −π to π

Required area = \(\int_{\theta=-\pi}^{\theta=\pi}\left[\int_{r=0}^{r=a(1+\cos \theta)} r d r\right] d \theta\)

= \(\int_{\theta=-\pi}^{\theta=\pi}\left[\frac{r^2}{2}\right]_{r=0}^{r=a(1+\cos \theta)} d \theta\)

= \(\int_{-\pi}^\pi \frac{a^2}{2}(1+\cos \theta)^2 d \theta=a^2 \int_0^\pi\left(1+2 \cos \theta+\cos ^2 \theta\right) d \theta\)

= \(a^2 \int_0^\pi\left[1+2 \cos \theta+\frac{1+\cos \theta}{2}\right] d \theta\)

= \(a^2 \int_0^\pi\left[\frac{3}{2}+2 \cos \theta+\frac{1}{2} \cos 2 \theta\right] d \theta\)

= \(a^2\left[\frac{3 \theta}{2}+2 \sin \theta+\frac{1}{4} \sin 2 \theta\right]=\frac{3 \pi a^2}{2} \)

31. Find the area which is inside the circle r = 3a cos θ and outside the cardioid r =a(1+cos θ).

Solution:

Given r = 3a cos θ  → (1) and r = a (1 + cos θ)  → (2)

Required area A = ∫∫r dr dθ

Eliminating r from (1) and (2), we get 3a cos θ = a (1 + cos θ) ⇒ 2 cos θ = 1

⇒  cos θ = 1/2 ⇒  θ=−π/3 or π/3.

The required area is the region shown in the figure. Since both curves are symmetrical about the initial line, the required area is twice the area above the initial line.

In this region take a radial strip OPP where P lies on (2) and P’ lies on (1).

When it moves, it will cover the required area.

∴  r varies from a (1 + cos θ) to 3a cos θ and 0 varies from 0 to π/3

Required area = \(2 \int_0^{\pi / 3} \int_{r=a(1+\cos \theta)}^{r=3 a \cos \theta} r d r d \theta\)

= \(2 \int_0^{\pi / 3}\left[\frac{r^2}{2}\right]_{a(1+\cos \theta)}^{3 a \cos \theta} d \theta\)

= \(\int_0^{\pi / 3}\left[9 a^2 \cos ^2 \theta-a^2(1+\cos \theta)^2\right] d \theta\)

= \(a^2 \int_0^{\pi / 3}\left[9 \cos ^2 \theta-\left(1+2 \cos \theta+\cos ^2 \theta\right)\right] d \theta\)

= \(a^2 \int_0^{\pi / 3}\left[8 \cos ^2 \theta-1-2 \cos \theta\right] d \theta=a^2 \int_0^{\pi / 3}\left[8\left\{\frac{1+\cos 2 \theta}{2}\right\}-1-2 \cos \theta\right] d \theta\)

= \(a^2\left[4\left(\theta+\frac{\sin 2 \theta}{2}\right)-\theta-2 \sin \theta\right]_0^{\pi / 3}\)

= \(a^2\left[4\left(\frac{\pi}{3}+\frac{\sin \frac{2 \pi}{3}}{2}\right)-\frac{\pi}{3}-2 \sin \frac{\pi}{3}-0\right]\)

= \(a^2\left[\frac{4 \pi}{3}+2 \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}-\frac{\pi}{3}-2 \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right]=a^2\left[\frac{4 \pi}{3}-\frac{\pi}{3}\right]=\pi a^2\)

32. Find the area common to r = \(a \sqrt{2}\) and r- 2a cosθ .

Solution: Given r = a\(\sqrt{2}\) → (1) and r = 2a cosθ  → (2)

(1) is a circle with centre (0, 0) and radius a\(\sqrt{2}\)

(2) is a circle with centre (a, 0) and radius a.

Solve (1) and (2) to find the point of intersection.

∴ a\(\sqrt{2}\) 2a cosθ ⇒ cosθ \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\) ⇒ θ=π/4.

Since the circles are symmetrical about the initial line OX, the required area = 2 [area OABC]- 2[area OAB+ area OBC]

In OAB, take a strip OP. When OP moves it covers the area OAR Ends of OP we, r = 0 and r = a\(\sqrt{2}\).

∴ r varies from 0 to a\(\sqrt{2}\) and 0 varies from 0 toπ/4 . In the area, OBC, take a strip OQ.

When OQ moves it covers the area OBC. Ends of OQ are, r = 0 and r = 2a cos θ

Required area = \(2\left[\int_{0^{-}}^{\pi / 4} \int_0^{\sqrt{2}} r d r d \theta+\int_{\pi / 4}^{\pi / 2} \int_0^{2 a \cos \theta} r d r d \theta\right]\)

= \(2 \int_0^{\pi / 4}\left[\frac{r^2}{2}\right]_0^{a \sqrt{2}} d \theta+2 \int_{\pi / 4}^{\pi / 2}\left[\frac{r^2}{2}\right]_0^{2 a \cos \theta} d \theta\)

= \(\int_0^{\pi / 4} 2 a^2 d \theta+\int_{\pi / 4}^{\pi / 2} 4 a^2 \cos ^2 \theta d \theta\)

= \(2 a^2[\theta]+4 a^2 \int_{\pi / 4}^{\pi / 4}\left(\frac{1+\cos 2 \theta}{2}\right) d \theta\)

= \(2 a^2 \frac{\pi}{4}+2 a^2\left[\theta+\frac{\sin 2 \theta}{2}\right]_{\pi / 4}^{\pi / 2}\)

= \(\frac{\pi a^2}{2}+2 a^2\left[\frac{\pi}{2}-\frac{\pi}{4}+\frac{1}{2}\left(\sin \pi-\sin \frac{\pi}{2}\right)\right]\)

= \(\frac{\pi a^2}{2}+2 a^2\left[\frac{\pi}{4}-\frac{1}{2}\right]=\frac{\pi a^2}{2}+\frac{\pi a^2}{2}-a^2=a^2(\pi-1)\)

33. Find the area inside the circle r = a sin θ but lying outside the cardioid r = a (1 – cos θ).

Solution: Given r= a sin θ →(1) and r= a(1- cos θ) →(2)

Area=∫∫ r dr dθ

Eliminating r from (1) and (2), we get a sin o a=(1- cos θ)= sin θ+ cos θ=1

sin² θ+ cos² θ + 2 sin θ cos θ =1⇒ 1+2 sin 2θ=1= sin 2θ=0

2θ =0, π⇒ θ=0 or π/2

Area = \(\int_0^{\pi / 2} \int_{a(1-\cos \theta)}^{a \sin \theta} r d \theta=\int_0^{\pi / 2}\left[\frac{r^2}{2}\right]_{a(1-\cos \theta)}^{a \sin \theta} d \theta\)

= \(\frac{1}{2} \int_0^{\pi / 2}\left[a^2 \sin ^2 \theta-a^2(1-\cos \theta)^2\right] d \theta\)

= \(\frac{a^{2^{\pi / 2}}}{2} \int_0^2\left[\sin ^2 \theta-\left(1-2 \cos \theta+\cos ^2 \theta\right)\right] d \theta\)

= \(\frac{a^2}{2} \int_0^{2 / 2}\left\{-1+2 \cos \theta-\left(\cos ^2 \theta-\sin ^2 \theta\right)\right\} d \theta\)

= \(\frac{a^2}{2}\left[\int_0^{\pi / 2}[-1+2 \cos \theta\} d \theta-\int_0^{\pi / 2}\left\{\cos ^2 \theta-\sin ^2 \theta\right] d \theta\right]\)

= \(\frac{a^2}{2} \int_0^{\pi / 2}(-1+2 \cos \theta) d \theta\)

= \(\frac{a^2}{2}[-\theta+2 \sin \theta]=\frac{\pi / 2}{0}=\frac{a^2}{2}\left[-\frac{\pi}{2}+2 \sin \frac{\pi}{2}\right]\)

= \(\frac{a^2}{2}\left[-\frac{\pi}{2}+2\right]=\frac{a^2}{4}[4-\pi] \text {. }\)

34. Find the area of the surface of the sphere of radius r.

Solution:
Taking the origin as the centre and radius r, the equation of the sphere is x² +y² + z²= r². Let us consider the surface of the sphere in the first octant. It will be 1/8 of the surface of the sphere. The orthogonal projection of this surface area on the XOY plane is the quadrant of the circle x² +y² − r² in that plane.

Hence this surface area = \(\iint\left\{\left(\frac{\partial z}{\partial x}\right)^2+\left(\frac{\partial z}{\partial y}\right)^2+1\right\}^{1 / 2} d y d x\) taken over the area of the quarter of the circle \(x^2+y^2=r^2\) on the positivequadrant.

Now \(\frac{\partial z}{\partial x}=-\frac{x}{z}, \frac{\partial y}{\partial z}=-\frac{y}{z}\).

Surface area of the sphere = \(8 \iint\left(\frac{x^2}{z^2}+\frac{y^2}{z^2}+1\right)^{1 / 2} d x d y\)

= \(8 \iint \frac{\left(x^2+y^2+z^2\right)^{1 / 2}}{z} d x d y=8 \iint \frac{r}{z} d x d y=8 \int_0^r \int_0^{\sqrt{r^2-x^2}} \frac{r d x d y}{\sqrt{r^2-x^2-y^2}}\)

= \(8 \times \frac{\pi r^2}{2}=4 \pi r^2\)

Multiple Examples Of Triple Integrals For Practice

35. Find the area of the surface of the sphere x² +y² + Z² = 9a² cut off by the cylinder x² +y² =3ax.

Solution: The Projection of the required area S on the xy-plane is the circle x²+y²=3ax.

On the sphere z = \(\sqrt{9 a^2-x^2-y^2}\),

⇒ \(\frac{\partial z}{\partial x}=-\frac{x}{\sqrt{9 a^2-x^2-y^2}}, \frac{\partial z}{\partial y}=-\frac{y}{\sqrt{9 a^2-x^2-y^2}}\)

S = \(\iint_R \sqrt{1+\left(\frac{\partial z}{\partial x}\right)^2+\left(\frac{\partial z}{\partial y}\right)^2} d x d y\)

where R is the region enclosed by the circle \(x^2+y^2=3 a x\).

= \(\iint_R \sqrt{1+\frac{x^2}{9 a^2-x^2-y^2}+\frac{y^2}{9 a^2-x^2-y^2}} d x d y=\iint_R \frac{3 a}{\sqrt{9 a^2-x^2-y^2}} d x d y\)

= \(3 a \iint_R \frac{r d r d \theta}{\sqrt{9 a^2-r^2}}\) changing to polars.

The polar equation of the circle is r= 3a cos θ.

To cover the area of this circle t varies from 0 to 3a cos θ  and θ from −π/2 to π/2.

∴ S = \(3 a \int_{-\pi / 2}^{\pi / 2} \int_0^{3 a \cos \theta} \frac{r d r d \theta}{\sqrt{9 a^2-r^2}}\)

= \(3 a \int_{-\pi / 2}^{\pi / 2}\left[-\sqrt{9 a^2-r^2}\right]{ }_0^{3 a \cos \theta}=9 a^2 \int_{-\pi / 2}^{\pi / 2}\left[1-\sqrt{1-\cos ^2 \theta}\right] d \theta\)

= \(18 a^2 \int_0^{\pi / 2}\left[1-\sqrt{1-\cos ^2 \theta}\right] d \theta=18 a^2 \int_0^{\pi / 2}[1-\sin \theta] d \theta=18 a^2\left(\frac{\pi}{2}-1\right)=9 a^2(\pi-2)\)

36. Find the surface area of the cylinder x² +y² =ax cut off by the sphere x² +y² + Z² = a² 

Solution: The equation of the sphere is x² + y² + z²= a² → (1)

The equation of the cylinder is x² +y²= ax  →(2)

The surface area of the cylinder cut off by the sphere is required.

Projecting the surface on the xz-plane, we get the required surface area of S.

∴ S= 2 \(\iint_{D_1} \sqrt{\left(\frac{\partial y}{\partial x}\right)^2+\left(\frac{\partial y}{\partial z}\right)^2}\) +1dx dz

Where D₁ is the region obtained by eliminating y² from (1) and (2).

∴ z²+ax=a²→(3)

The surface is x²+y²=ax

Differentiating partially w. r. to x and z, treating y as function of x and z, we get

2x+2y \(\frac{\partial y}{\partial x}=a \Rightarrow \frac{\partial y}{\partial x}=\frac{a-2 x}{2 y}\) and

2y \(\frac{\partial y}{\partial z}=0 \Rightarrow \frac{\partial y}{\partial z}=0\)

∴ \(\left(\frac{\partial y}{\partial x}\right)^2+\left(\frac{\partial y}{\partial z}\right)^2+1\)

= \(\frac{(a-2 x)^2}{4 y^2}+1=\frac{(a-2 x)^2+4 y^2}{4 y^2}\)

= \(\frac{a^2-4 a x+4 x^2+4\left(a x-x^2\right)}{4 y^2}=\frac{a^2}{4 y^2}\)

∴ \( \sqrt{\left(\frac{\partial y}{\partial x}\right)^2+\left(\frac{\partial y}{\partial z}\right)^2+1}=\frac{a}{2 y}=\frac{a}{2 \sqrt{a x-x^2}}\)

We have \(z^2+a x=a^2 \Rightarrow z^2=a^2-a x \Rightarrow z= \pm \sqrt{a^2-a x}\)

∴ S = \(2 \iint_{D_1}^{2 \sqrt{a x-x^2}} d x d z=a \int_0^a \int_{-\sqrt{a^2-a x}}^{\sqrt{a^2-a x}} \frac{1}{\sqrt{a x-x^2}} d x d z\)

= \(a \int_0^a\left[\int_{-\sqrt{a^2-a x}}^{\sqrt{a^2-a x}} \frac{1}{\sqrt{a x-x^2}} d z\right] d x\)

= \(a \int_0^a\left[\frac{1}{\sqrt{a x-x^2}}[z]-\sqrt{a^2-a x}\right] d x\)

= \(a \int_0^{\sqrt{a^2-a x}}\left\{\frac{1}{\sqrt{a x-x^2}}\left[\sqrt{a^2-a x}+\sqrt{a^2-a x}\right]\right\} d x\)

= \(2 a \int_0^a \frac{\sqrt{a^2-a x}}{\sqrt{a x-x^2}} d x=2 a \int_0^a \sqrt{\frac{a(a-x)}{x(a-x)}} d x\)

= \(2 a \int_0^a \sqrt{\frac{a}{x}} d x=2 a \sqrt{a} \int_0^a x^{-1 / 2} d x\)

= \(2 a \sqrt{a}\left[\frac{x^{1 / 2}}{1 / 2}\right]=4 a \sqrt{a}\left(a^{1 / 2}-0\right)=4 a^2\)

37. Find the portion of the cone x² +y² = 4z² lying above the xy-plane and inside the cylinder x² +y² = 3y.

Solution:
The projection of the required area on the x,y plane is the circle x² +y² =3y.

Given cone is x²+y²= 4z² ⇒  z = 1/2\(\sqrt{x^2+y^2}\).

⇒ \(\frac{\partial z}{\partial x}=\frac{1}{2} \frac{x}{\sqrt{x^2+y^2}}, \frac{\partial z}{\partial y}=\frac{1}{2} \frac{y}{\sqrt{x^2+y^2}}\)

∴ S = \(\iint_k \sqrt{1+\frac{1}{4} \frac{x^2}{x^2+y^2}+\frac{1}{4} \frac{y^2}{x^2+y^2}} d x d y\)

= \(\frac{\sqrt{5}}{2} \iint_R d x d y\), where R is the circle \(x^2+y^2=3 y\)

= \(\frac{\sqrt{5}}{2}\)(area of the circle \(x^2+y^2=3 y\))=\(\frac{\sqrt{5}}{2} \pi\left(\frac{3 a}{2}\right)^2=\frac{9 \sqrt{5}}{8} \pi a^2\)

38. The centre of a sphere of radius r is on the surface of a right cylinder, the radius of whose base is r/2. Find the area of the surface of the cylinder intercepted by the sphere.

Solution: The equation of the sphere is x² +y² +z² =r² and the equation of the cylinder is

⇒ \(\left(x-\frac{r}{2}\right)^2+y^2=\left(\frac{r}{2}\right)^2 \Rightarrow x^2+y^2=r x \text {. }\)

Projecting on the zx-plane, we have

S = \(\iint_R \sqrt{1+\left(\frac{\partial y}{\partial x}\right)^2+\left(\frac{\partial y}{\partial z}\right)^2} d x d z \text {. }\)

On the cylinder \(y^2=r x-x^2\).

∴ \(\frac{\partial y}{\partial x}=\frac{r-2 x}{2 y}, \frac{\partial y}{\partial z}=0 \text {. }\)

The projection of the area on the zx-plane is the curve by eliminating y from x² +y² =rx and x² +y² +z² =r², i.e, z² +rx=r².

Hence the required area = \(2 \iint_R \sqrt{1+\frac{(r-2 x)^2}{4 y^2}} d x d z\)

= \(2 \iint \frac{\sqrt{4 y^2+4 x^2-4 r x+r^2}}{2 y} d x d z=2 r \iint \frac{d x d z}{2 y}=r \iint \frac{d x d z}{\sqrt{r x-x^2}}\)

= \(r \int_0^r \int_{-\sqrt{r^2-r x}}^{\sqrt{r^2-r x}} \frac{d x d z}{\sqrt{r x-x^2}}=2 r \int_0^r\left[\int_0^{\sqrt{r^2-r x}} \frac{d z}{\sqrt{r x-x^2}}\right] d x\)

= \(2 r \int_0^r \frac{1}{\sqrt{r x-x^2}}[z] \int_0^{\sqrt{r^2-r x}} d x\)

required area = \(2 r \int_0^r \frac{\sqrt{r^2-r x}}{\sqrt{r x-x^2}} d x=2 r \int_0^r \frac{\sqrt{r}}{\sqrt{x}} d x=4 r^2\)

39. Find the volume of the ellipsoid \(\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}+\frac{z^2}{c^2}\) =1 by using a double integral.

Solution: Note that the” ellipsoid is symmetrical about axes and hence the required volume is 8 times the volume of the ellipsoid in the positive octant.

The region above which the volume lies is bounded by x = 0, x = a, y = 0 andy=b \(\sqrt{1-\frac{x^2}{a^2}}\).

Hence the required volume of the ellipsoid

= \(8 \int_0^a \int_0^{b \sqrt{1-x^2 / a^2}} z d y d x=8 \int_0^a \int_0^b c \sqrt{1-x^2 / a^2} \frac{x^2}{a^2}-\frac{y^2}{b^2} d y d x\)

= \(8 \int_0^t \int_0^t c \sqrt{\left.\frac{t^2}{b^2}-\frac{y^2}{b^2}\right]} d y d x \text {, where } b^2\left(1-\frac{x^2}{a^2}\right)=t^2\)

volume = \(8 \int_0^a \int \frac{c}{b} \sqrt{t^2-y^2} d y d x=8 \int_0^a \frac{c}{b}\left[y \frac{\sqrt{t^2-y^2}}{2}+\frac{t^2}{2} \text{Sin}^{-1} \frac{y}{t}\right]_0^t d x\)

40. Find the volume bounded by the cylinder X² +y² = 4 and the planes y + z = 3 and z = 0 by using double integral.

Solution: From the it is clear that to get the required volume z=3-y is to be integrated over the circle x² +y² =4 in the XOY plane.

Note that x varies from –\(\sqrt{4-y^2}\) to \(\sqrt{4-y^2}\) and y varies from-2 to +2.

∴ Required volume

= \(\int_{-2}^2 \int_{-\sqrt{4-y^2}}^{\sqrt{4-y^2}} z d x d y=\int_{-2}^2 \int_{-\sqrt{4-y^2}:}^{\sqrt{4-y^2}}(3-y) d x d y\)

= \(\int_{-2}^2(3-y)[x]_{-\sqrt{4-y^2}}^{\sqrt{4-y^2}} d y=2 \int_{-2}^2(3-y) \sqrt{4-y^2} d y\)

= \(6 \int_{-2}^2 \sqrt{4-y^2} d y-2 \int_{-2}^2 y \sqrt{4-y^2} d y=12 \int_0^2 \sqrt{4-y^2} d y-0\)

Required volume = \(12 \int_0^{\pi / 2} 4 \cos ^2 \theta d \theta=48 \cdot \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{\pi}{2}=12 \pi \text {. }\)

= \(\int_0^{a^b\left(1-\frac{x}{a}\right)} \int_0^c c\left(1-\frac{x}{a}-\frac{y}{b}\right) d y d x\)

= \(c \int_0^a\left[\left(1-\frac{x}{a}\right) y-\frac{y^2}{2 b}\right]_0^{b\left(1-\frac{x}{a}\right)} d x\)

= \(c \int_0^a\left[\left(1-\frac{x}{a}\right) b\left(1-\frac{x}{a}\right)-\frac{1}{2 b} b^2\left(1-\frac{x}{a}\right)^2\right] d x\)

= \(\frac{b c}{2} \int_0^a\left(1-\frac{x}{a}\right)^2 d x=\frac{b c}{2}\left[\frac{\left(1-\frac{x}{a}\right)^3}{-\frac{1}{a} 3}\right]^a\)

42. Find the volume of the sphere x² + y² + Z² = a².

Solution: The sphere x² +y² +z² =a² is symmetric about the coordinate planes

The volume of the sphere=8 (Volume of the sphere in the first octant).
x² +y² +z² =a² ⇒ z² =a² -x² -y² ⇒ z=± \(\sqrt{a^2-x^2-y^2}\)

In the first octant z varies from z=0 to z \(\sqrt{a^2-x^2-y^2}\)

The section of the sphere by the xy-plane z=0 is the circle x²+y²=a²

⇒y²=a²-x^2⇒ y=±\(\sqrt{a^2-x^2}\).

∴ y varies from 0 to \(\sqrt{a^2-x^2}\) and x varies from 0 to a.

∴ Volume of the sphere = \(8 \int_0^a \int_0^{\sqrt{a^2-x^2} \sqrt{a^2-x^2-y^2}} \int_0^a d x d y d z\)

= \(8 \int_0^{\sqrt{a^2-x^2}}\left\{\int_0^{\sqrt{a^2-x^2}}\left[\int_0^d d z\right] d y\right\} d x\)

= \(8 \int_0^a\left\{\int_0^{\sqrt{a^2-x^2}}[z]_{z=0}^{z=\sqrt{a^2-x^2-y^2}} d y\right\} d x=8 \int_0^a\left[\int_0^{\sqrt{a^2-x^2}} \sqrt{a^2-x^2-y^2} d y\right] d x\)

= \(8 \int_0^a\left[\frac{y}{2} \sqrt{a^2-x^2-y^2}+\frac{a^2-x^2}{2} \text{Sin}^{-1} \frac{y}{\sqrt{a^2-x^2}}\right] d x\)

= \(8 \int_0^{y=\sqrt{a^2-x^2}} \frac{a^2-x^2}{2} \frac{\pi}{2} d x\)

Volume of the sphere  = \(2 \pi \int_0^a\left(a^2-x^2\right) d x=2 \pi\left[a^2 x-\frac{x^3}{3}\right]=2 \pi\left(a^3-\frac{a^3}{3}\right)=\frac{4 \pi a^3}{3}\)

43. Find the volume bounded by the cylinder x² +y²  = 4 and the planes y + z-4 and z = 0 by using double integral.

Solution: The required volume of the cylinder x²+y²=4, cut off between the planes z=0 and y+z =4 is V ∫\(\int_D\)∫ dx dy dz.

∴  z varies from z=0 to z=4-y

∴ The projection of the region in the plane is x²+y²=4 =y=± \(\sqrt{4-x^2}\)

∴ y varies from \(-\sqrt{4-x^2}\) to \(+\sqrt{4-x^2}\) and x-varies from -2 to 2

Volume V = \(\int_{-2}^2 \int_{-\sqrt{4-x^2}}^{\sqrt{4-x^2}}[z]_0^{4-y} d y d x=\int_{-2}^2 \int_{-\sqrt{4-x^2}}^{\sqrt{4-x^2}}(4-y) d y d x\)

V= \(\int_{-2}^2\left[4 y-\frac{y^2}{2}\right]_{-\sqrt{4-x^2}}^{\sqrt{4-x^2}} d x\)

V= \(\int_{-2}^2\left\{4\left[\sqrt{4-x^2}-\left(-\sqrt{4-x^2}\right)-\frac{1}{2}\left[4-x^2-\left(4-x^2\right)\right]\right\} d x=8 \int_{-2}^2 \sqrt{4-x^2} d x\right.\)

V= \(8 \cdot 2 \int_0^2 \sqrt{4-x^2} d x=16\left[\frac{x \sqrt{4-x^2}}{2}+\frac{4}{2} \text{Sin}^{-1} \frac{x}{2}\right]=16\left[0+2 \text{Sin}^{-1} 1-(0+0)\right]\)

V= \(16 \cdot 2 \frac{\pi}{2}=16 \pi\)

44. Find the volume common to the cylinders x² + y²= a² and x²+ z² = a².

Solution:  Given cylinder x²+y²=a² →(1)

⇒ y²=a²-x² or y=±  \(\sqrt{a^2-x^2}\) and

x²+z² =a² →(2)= z²=a²-x²  0r  z= ±\(\sqrt{a^2-x^2}\)

The required volume can be covered as follows:

z: from-\(\sqrt{a^2-x^2}\) to \(\sqrt{a^2-x^2}\) : y: from – \(\sqrt{a^2-x^2}\) to \(\sqrt{a^2-x^2}\) : x: from  − a to a.

Thus the volume V enclosed by the cylinders

V = \(\int_{-a-\sqrt{a^2-x^2}}^a \int_{-\sqrt{a^2-x^2}}^{\sqrt{a^2-x^2}} d z d x=2 \int_{-a}^a \int_{-\sqrt{a^2-x^2}}^{\sqrt{a^2-x^2}}[z]_0^{\sqrt{a^2-x^2}} d y d x\)

V= \(4 \int_{-a}^{a \sqrt{a^2-x^2}} \int_0^{\sqrt{2}} \sqrt{\left(a^2-x^2\right)} d y d x\)

V= \(4 \int_{-a}^a \sqrt{a^2-x^2}[y] d x=8 \int_0^{\sqrt{a^2-x^2}}\left(a^2-x^2\right) d x\)

V= \(8(a^2 x-\frac{x^3}{3} \int_0^a=8 (a^3-\frac{a^3}{3})\)

V= \(8 a^3\left(1-\frac{1}{3}\right)=\frac{16 a^3}{3}\) cubic units

45. Find the volume of the portion of the sphere x² +y² + z² = a² lying inside the cylinder x² + y² = ax.

Solution: We solve the problem by transforming it into cylindrical coordinates.

Putx-p cos Φ , y = ρ sin Φ, z = z.

Required volume = ∫∫∫ρ dz dρ dΦ.

The equation of the sphere is ρ² + z² = a² and the equation of the cylinder is  ρ= a cos Φ.

The volume inside the cylinder bounded by the sphere

= 2 x volume shown shaded in the.

Note that z varies from 0 to\(\sqrt{a^2-\rho^2}\),ρ varies from 0 to a cosΦ and Φ varies from 0 to π.

Required volume

= \(2 \int_0^\pi \int_0^{a \cos \phi} \int_0^{\sqrt{a^2-\rho^2}} \rho d z d \rho d \phi\)

= \(2 \int_0^\pi \int_0^{a \cos \phi} \rho \sqrt{a^2-\rho^2} d \rho d \phi\)

= \(2 \int_0^\pi\left[-\frac{\left(a^2-\rho^2\right)^{3 / 2}}{3}\right]_0^{a \cos \phi} d \phi\)

= \(\frac{2 a^3}{3} \int_0^\pi\left(1-\sin ^3 \phi\right) d \phi\)

Required volume = \(\frac{2 a^3}{9}(3 \pi-4) .\)
