Calculate the circulation, _C vec(F)*dvec(r), in two ways, directly and using Stokes' Theorem. The vector field vec(F)=(2x-7y+7z)(vec(i)+vec(j)) and C is the triangle with vertices (0,0,0),(3,0,0),(3,6,0), traversed in that order. Calculating directly, we break C into three paths. For each, give a parameterization vec(r)(t) that traverses the path from start to end for 0<=t<=1. On C_(1) from (0,0,0) to (3,0,0),vec(r)(t)= On C_(2) from (3,0,0) to (3,6,0),vec(r)(t)= On C_(3) from (3,6,0) to (0,0,0),vec(r)(t)= So that, integrating, we have _(C_(1)) vec(F)*dvec(r)=\int_(C_(2)) vec(F)*dvec(r)=\int_(C_(3)) vec(F)*dvec(r)= and so \int_C vec(F)*dvec(r)= Using Stokes' Theorem, we have curlvec(F)= So that the surface integral on S , the triangular region on the plane enclosed by the indicated triangle, is _S curlvec(F)*dvec(A)=_a^b _c^d ,dydx where a=,b=,c=,, and d= Integrating, we get _C vec(F)*dvec(r)=_S curlvec(F)*vec(d(vec(A)))=
