This was the second midterm given by another instructor.
- 1.
-
In this problem the curve C is the quarter of the circle of radius
2, centered at the origin, which lies in the first quadrant, oriented from
(2,0) to (0,2).
- (a)
-
Compute the integral along C of f ds, where
f(x,y) = xy/(x2+y2).
- (b)
-
Compute the integral along C of
F · dr for
F = y i-x j.
- 2.
-
In this problem C is the half of the circle
x2+y2 = 9 in the right half plane (x > 0)
together with the segment on the y-axis from (0,3) to (0,-3) oriented
counterclockwise, and
F = -x2y i+xy2 j.
