In many practical problems, it is more convenient to express these integrals in vector form and the methods often lead to more concise working. Line integrals Let a point P on the curve ¢ joining A and B be denoted by the position vector r with respect (a) to a fixed origin O. If Q is a neighbouring point on the curve with position vector +r, then PQ = dr. ‘The curve c can be divided up 8 into many (n) such small arcs, (b)_ "Gy approximating to dri, dr2, drs Grp... so that AB=3> dry a where dry 1 a vector representing the clement of arc in both magnitude and direction. Scalar field If a scalar field V exists for all points on the curve, then A oo ae an Yo Veep with de -+0, defines the line integral of V along the curve c We can illustrate this inte- gral by erecting a continuous ordinate proportional to V at each point of the curve. [ae shen eset by the area of the curved surface between the ends A and B of the curve c. ‘To evaluate a line integral, the integrand is expressed in terms of x,y 2, with dr= 746 Programme 18 & dr = idx +jdy +kdz In practice, x, y and z are often expressed in terms of parametric equations of a fourth variable (say w), Le. x= x(u); y = ylw); z= 2(u). From these, dx, dy and dz can be written in terms of w and the integral ‘evaluated in terms of this parameter 1. The following examples will show the method. Example 1 If V=297z, evaluate J V dr along the curve c having parametric equations x = 3u; y = 2; zu? between A (0, 0, 0) and B (3, 2, 1). v u)(4ut)(u!) = 1208 dr =idv+jay+kaz BS de =13du-+ udu + 3 du Limits: A (0, 0,0) corresponds to u = B(3, 2, 1) corresponds to u [vars f rave aan pandas 430? an ; Finish it off because [var 12 aston aucun which integrates directly to give the result quoted above. ‘Now for another example.

With an open surface as we now have, there is in fact no inward or outward direction. With any general surface, a normal vector can be drawn in either of two opposite directions. To avoid confusion, a convention must therefore be agreed upon and the established rule is as follows. ‘A.unit normal is drawn perpendicular to the surface Sat any point in the direction indicated by applying a right-handed screw sense to the direction of integration round the boundary ¢. Having noted that point, we can now deal with the next example. 0. Example 2 ‘A surface consists of five sections formed by the planes x=0, |, ¥=0, y=3, 2=2 in the first octant. If the vector field F=yi+24j+xyk exists over the surface and around its boundary, verify Stokes’ theorem. If we progress round the boundary along ci, C2, 3, C4 in an anti- clockwise manner, the normals to the surfaces will be as shown.
