Problem 3.52: Verify Stokes's Theorem For The Vector Field B Sin by Evaluating

This document summarizes solving Problems 3.52 and 3.53 from the textbook. For Problem 3.52, it evaluates Stokes' theorem for a semicircular contour by: (1) calculating the line integral of B around the contour, getting a value of 8; and (2) calculating the surface integral of the curl of B over the semicircular surface, also getting a value of 8. This verifies Stokes' theorem for this example.
