Use the surface integral in Stokes’ Theorem to calculate the circulation of the field F around the curve C in the indicated direction.

F = x²i + 2xj + z²k

C: The ellipse 4x² + y² = 4 in the xy-plane, counterclockwise when viewed from above

THEOREM 6-Stokes' Theorem Let S be a piecewise smooth oriented surface having a piecewise smooth boundary curve C. Let F = Mi + Nj + Pk be a vector field whose components have continuous first partial derivatives on an open region containing S. Then the circulation of F around C in the direction counterclockwise with respect to the surface's unit normal vector n equals the integral of the curl vector field VX F over S: fF.dr = [[ S Counterclockwise circulation VXF ndo Curl integral (4)
