presented by: Luis Carlos Trujillo Homez 83487

Summary:
In the following file, the investigation of a topic of the vector calculus subject was carried
out, of which an exhibition will be made explaining how the subject can be applied in
vector calculus, in order to publicize one of the thousands of topics that exist in said subject

Introduction:
In mathematics, a line integral is one whose integration function is evaluated on a curve. The terms
curve integrals, curvilinear integral and path integral are also used; The contour integral is also
used, although this term is typically used for line integrals in the complex plane.
The function to integrate can be a scalar field or a vector field, also called scalar function and vector
function respectively.

What is it:
In mathematics, a line integral is one whose function to integrate is evaluated on a curve. The terms
curve integral, curvilinear integral, and path integral are also used; Contour integral is also used
although this term is typically used for line integrals in the complex plane. the function to be
integrated can be a scalar field or a vector field, also called scalar function and vector function
respectively.
Practical examples of the application of line integrals can be:
The calculation of the length of a curve in space.
The calculation of the work that is done to move an object along a trajectory taking into account
fields of forces (described by vector fields) that act on it.

examples and applications:

Practical examples of the application of line integrals can be:
• The calculation of the length of a curve in space.
• The calculation of the work that is done to move an object along a trajectory taking into account
the fields of forces (described by vector fields) that act on it.
Geometrically, when the scalar field {\ displaystyle f} f is defined on the plane {\ displaystyle (n =
2)} {\ displaystyle (n = 2)}, its graph is a surface {\ displaystyle z = f (x, y)} {\ displaystyle z = f (x,
y)} in space, so the line integral is interpreted as the area of a valley between the base of the image
of {\ displaystyle C} C and the graph of {\ displaystyle f} f.
