Problems
Let be the six outer faces of the box (i.e. , , ), oriented with outward
normals. Let . Then
The surface isis not
closed. The components of the vector field have continuous partials
everywhere (they are polynomials), so we can use the Divergence Theorem.
The surface is correctlyincorrectly oriented. Now apply the Divergence
Theorem.
The setup after using Divergence Theorem is
If and is the curve given by
for , then
This is a vector line integral, so we first check whether the vector field is
conservative. Notice
so is conservative. We can actually find the potential function here, and it is
(give the one with )
The endpoints of are
and
Plugging these into and subtracting gives
This is the line integral of a conservative vector field, and has potential
function . Now use FTLI.
If and are unit vectors and , then the angle between and is equal to (give
your answer between and ).
The answer should be .
If and is the triangle in the first octant connecting , , and , oriented
clockwise when viewed from above, then .
We first check whether is conservative. Note that
so is not conservative. Doing this line integral directly would involve
parametrizing three different line segments, so let us not do that. However, we
note that isis not
closed, so we can use Stokes’ theorem. All we need to do is pick a surface
with as its boundary, and then compute instead. One surface we can choose
is the portion of the plane through those three points (i.e. filling in the
triangle with a plane). This plane has equation
Flux integrals depend on orientation, so we decide that now. For Stokes’
theorem to work, we need to pick upwarddownward
normals for .
Now we compute the flux integral. We parametrize as with the domain being the triangle in the -plane with vertices , , and . Then which is the wrong normal, so we negate it and use instead. The flux is then
Now we compute the flux integral. We parametrize as with the domain being the triangle in the -plane with vertices , , and . Then which is the wrong normal, so we negate it and use instead. The flux is then
Let be the region and above by . Consider the triple integral
- In Cartesian coordinates, the bounds on the iterated integral would be
- In cylindrical coordinates, the setup for the integral would be
- Evaluating in either coordinate system gives an answer of .
Let be the solid given by where . Evaluate in both cylindrical and spherical
coordinates. The answer in either case is .
The setup in cylindrical is
either
or
In spherical it is
The surface area of the surface given by
where and , is equal to .
The surface area is . In this case, this just amounts
to calculating
where is the domain for and . In this case,
and
the integral becomes
We cannot integrate in this order, so switch the order of integration:
The setup before integrating should be
Let be the portion of with , oriented with outward normals, and let .
Then
Notice that , so we cannot use Stokes’ Theorem/change the surface. The
surface is not closed, but we can close it and use Divergence Theorem. Let
be the disc in the plane , so that and together form a closed surface. We
will orient upward (arbitrary choice). For Divergence Theorem, is correctlyincorrectly
oriented, and is correctlyincorrectly
oriented. Therefore, the setup is
where is the enclosed solid region.
- For the triple integral, it is most nicely computed in Cartesiancylindricalspherical coordinates, and the triple integral setup in cylindrical would be This evaluates to .
- For the flux integral, we can parametrize the surface as for . Then which is the correctincorrect normal. Therefore, the flux of through becomes
Putting everything together, we get an answer of .
Let and let be the portion of with , oriented with outward normals.
Then
There are two ways to do this: surface independence/divergence
theorem (with closing) or direct Stokes’ Theorem. The latter would
say
where is the boundary of . The boundary is in the plane , oriented clockwisecounterclockwise
when viewed from above. Parametrize the circle as
for , which is oriented correctlyincorrectly
. The line integral of over is therefore
You should try using surface independence/divergence theorem (with closing)
as well.
Let be the plane through the point which is perpendicular to the line given
by
An equation for is (give the answer in the form ):
If and is the portion of where , oriented with outward normals,
then
Note that is not closed, but we can close it and try to use Divergence
Theorem. Note that . We can close it by adding which will be the disc in the
plane . We will orient downward (arbitrary choice). For Divergence Thoerem,
the surface is correctlyincorrectly
oriented and is correctlyincorrectly
oriented. Therefore,
where is the enclosed solid.
- The triple integral is
- The flux through : Parametrize the disc as for . Then which is the correctincorrect normal, so we switch the sign on the vector to get a normal of . Using this we get a flux of .
Therefore, the answer is .
Close and use Divergence Theorem, or just compute the flux directly. You
should get an answer of .
If , evaluate , where is the curve , in three different ways. No matter which
way you do it, you get an answer of .
You can use the fact that is
conservative, you can use Green’s theorem, or you can do the line integral
directly.
Let be the solid region where , and let be the outer facing of the solid,
oriented with outward normals (i.e. is the closed surface consisting of the
hemisphere and the disc to close the hemisphere). If , then
Let be the parallelogram with vertices , , , and , oriented clockwise when
viewed from above. If
then
Notice
which tells us that isis not
conservative. To do this integral directly would involve four different line
segments, so we would like to avoid that. For Stokes’ Theorem, The
curl isn’t particularly nice, but maybe something nice will happen
when we take the flux. At this point, it seems like the only option.
The curve lies on a plane, and the equation of the plane is . We will let this be our surface . We can parametrize the surface as and the domain is a rectangle given by With the given orientation of , the surface should be oriented with normals pointing in the positivenegative -direction. Now we compute which is the correctincorrect normal vector, so we can negate it when computing the flux. The flux of the curl is therefore

If and is the curve given by for , then .
Doing this integral directly is
the best way to go since is not conservative and is not closed (and
this is a 3D vector field, not 2D where you can close and use Green’s
Theorem).
Doing this directly, the setup is
Use integration by parts.
The triple integral
written as a triple integral in spherical coordinates would be (write “rho” for
, for , and “theta” for ):
If is the portion of in the first octant, then .
This is a scalar surface
integral. Parametrize as
with domain the filled-in triangle in the -plane with vertices , and , call this
Then

The surface integral is therefore
We can go to polar from here:
The setup should be
If and is the sphere , oriented with outward normals, then
Using Divergence Theorem and then transforming the triple integral into
spherical coordinates, we get
Let . Let be the surface which is the portion of above the -plane, oriented
with inward normals. Then
You can either use Stokes’ Theorem or surface independence. Using the
former, we can say
where is the boundary of (with positive boundary orientation). In this
case, the boundary is the circle in the plane , oriented clockwisecounterclockwise
when viewed from above. We can parametrize the boundary as for . This is
going the correctwrong
way, so we add a negative. Therefore, the answer is
The answer is .
Let be the portion of above the plane , oriented with downward normals.
Let . Then
Try to get this answer in two different ways.
Notice that . We can use
surface independence to get the flux of this vector field. Let be the disc in
the plane , oriented with downward normals. Then
Now calculate the flux through .
Alternatively, you can use Stokes’ Theorem.

cylinder . The volume of is equal to .
The answer is
Let be the portion of the cylinder with , oriented with outward normals. If ,
then
We can close this and use Divergence Theorem, but we have to close it with
two different lids: in the plane and in the plane . Let be the disc in the
plane , and be the disc in the plane , both oriented upward. Then we can use
Divergence Theorem on combined surface with and , noting that is correctlyincorrectly
oriented, is correctlyincorrectly
oriented, and is correctlyincorrectly
oriented. Therefore

flux through is . Together, this gives an answer of .
