QuestionEvaluate the integral where is the path from to via .
Studdy Solution
STEP 1
1. The integral is a line integral over a piecewise linear path.
2. The path consists of two segments: from to and from to .
3. We will evaluate the line integral separately over each segment and then sum the results.
STEP 2
1. Parameterize the path from to and evaluate the integral over this segment.
2. Parameterize the path from to and evaluate the integral over this segment.
3. Sum the integrals from both segments to find the total integral .
STEP 3
Parameterize the path from to . This path is vertical, so and varies from 1 to 2. The parameterization can be and for in .
The differential changes are and .
Substitute into the integral:
Simplify and evaluate:
Calculate the integral:
STEP 4
Parameterize the path from to . This path is horizontal, so and varies from 1 to 2. The parameterization can be and for in .
The differential changes are and .
Substitute into the integral:
Simplify and evaluate:
Calculate the integral:
STEP 5
Sum the integrals from both segments to find the total integral :
The value of the integral is:
