Question:

Show that the curl ofimage


is zero but thatimage


is not zero if C is the circle x2 + y2 = 1 in the xy-plane. (Theorem 7 does not apply here because the domain of F is not simply connected. The field F is not defined along the z-axis so there is no way to contract C to a point without leaving the domain of F.)image
