Line integral A can be found at all pts along.

—start P i (x i y i z i ) —> P f (x f y f z f )
along a specific line or path
A • d s => work. Find the inf. dis. of d s along c
c [find the component along d s , multiply by ds and add
them up]
A • d s => circulation of A may or may not equal zero. (circ. of B 0)
c
F(x)dx = f(b)-f(a) where F = df/dx
Fundamental theorem for Gradients
—scalar function T(x, y, z)
—move small distance d

dT 1 = T • d , dT 2 = T • d , .....

The line integral of a gradient:


1) is independent of the path
2) around closed loop = 0

Example (1.30)
along path (1) along path(2) but x = y, so dx = dy
a) d = dx ^x , y = 1 ^r = x ^x + y ^y
d b = ^y dy, x = 2 d = d ^r = dx ^x + dy ^y
2
(||) ?? v • d = y dx + 2x (y + 1) dx
path dependent function => closed loop integral is not equal to zero
y2 + 2x 2 + 2x = 10

Integrals over Area

d a = da ^n => da may have direction if r is position vector
than.

A a) da may be part of open surface i.e. page. need convention on ^n ,
da choose sense of travel according to rt. hand rule.
b) closed surface of sphere. ^n direction from inside to outside

Integrals over surfaces

da x = x da, . . . .
x = cos y = cos z = cos , (direction cosines)
Consider a surface.
Vector field A exists, value can be found at all pts.
Vector field A exists, direction of surface d a defined by the to surface

Divergence Theorem
Gauss’ Divergence Theorem
A • da • Ad —> all faucets in the volume flow out
s V through the surface

^n — outward normal
Conservation Equation. what [something] is created inside must flow through the surface.
—surface integral requires knowledge of A only on surface, volume integral requires
knowledge of • A inside volume.
