This is a 50 minute midterm exam.


You may not consult any notes or books during the exam, and calculators are not
allowed. Show all of your work on each problem and simplify answers as much as
possible.
This exam has 4 problems worth 5 points each.

2. (5 points) Compute the integral


r(t) = (2 cos t, 2 sin t), t [0, ].

Solution: Compute r0 (t) = (2 sin t, 2 cos t) and kr0 (t)k = 4 sin2 t + 4 cos2 t = 2. Thus,

3. (5 points) Compute the volume of the region


W = {(x, y, z) | x 0, y 0, x2 + y 2 + z 2 4, z 2 x2 + y 2 }.

Solution: In spherical coordinates, this region is described as

4. (5 points) Compute the integral


Z
(2x y) dA
D

where D is the parallelogram with sides given by 2x y = 1,


x 2y = 2.

2x y = 2,

x 2y = 0,

Solution: It is natural to use the change of variables u = 2x y, v = x 2y. Solving for


x and y gives
