Verify that the given vector field h is a gradient. Then calculate the line integral of h over the indicated curve C by finding

f such that the gradient f = h and evaluating f at the end points of C.
h(x,y) = xy^2 i + yx^2 j

r(u) = u i + 2u^2 j

0 ? u ? 1

Please show all the steps so that I will know where i am making a mistake. I have attempted this question 4 times and i do not know where am going wrong. The correct answer is 2. I keep getting 4.

Answer:

f(x,y) = \frac{x^2 y^2}{2}

The value of the line integral is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

h(x,y) = xy^2 i + yx^2 j

Note that if you derivate the first part over the variable y and the second part over the variable x, then in both cases you obtain 2xy, therefore there must be a function f whose gradient is h, because the cross derivates are equal.

In order to find such f, you can calculate a primitive of both expressions, the first one over the variable x and the second one over the variable y.

A general primitive of xy² i (over x) is

f_1(x,y) = \frac{x^2y^2}{2} + a(y)

With a(y) a function that depends only on y. A general primitive of yx² j (over y) is

f_2(x,y) = \frac{x^2y^2}{2} + b(x)

With b(x) only depending on x

The function f(x,y) whose gradient is h is obtained by equaling the expressions of f₁ and f₂. f₁ and f₂ are equal when a(x) = b(x) = 0, therefore

f(x,y) = \frac{x^2y^2}{2}

note that

  • fx(x,y) = xy²
  • fy(x,y) = yx²

As we wanted. Lets find the endpoints of C

r(u) = u i + 2 u² j

r(0) = (0,0)

f(1) = (1,2)

Therefore,

\int\limits_C {xy^2} \, dx + {yx^2} \, dy = f((1,2)) - f((0,0)) = \frac{1^2 * 2^2}{2} - \frac{0^20^2}{0} = \frac{4}{2} - 0 = 2

The value of the line integral over C is 2.

Answer:

Volume of cuboid = 300 in³

Surface area of cuboid = 280 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length = 10 in

Width = 5 in

Height = 6 in

Find:

Volume of cuboid

Surface area of cuboid

Computation:

Volume of cuboid = [L][B][H]

Volume of cuboid = [10][5][6]

Volume of cuboid = 300 in³

Surface area of cuboid = 2[lb][bh][hl]

Surface area of cuboid = 2[(10)(5) + (5)(6) + (6)(10)]

Surface area of cuboid = 2[50 + 30 + 60]

Surface area of cuboid = 2[140]

Surface area of cuboid = 280 in²
