A very important application of Green's theorem is that the bounded domain cut out by a simple cl...
(a) Let S be the area of a bounded and closed region D with boundary дD of a smooth and simple closed curve, show that S Jlxy -ydx by Green's Theorem. (Hint: Let P--yandQ x) (b) Let D = {(x,y) 1} be an ellipse, compute the area of D a2 b2 (c) Let L be the upper half from point A(a, 0) to point B(-a, 0) along the elliptical boundary, compute line integral I(e* siny - my)dx + (e* cos...
Consider a cylindrical capacitor like that shown in Fig. 24.6. Let d = rb − ra be the spacing between the inner and outer conductors. (a) Let the radii of the two conductors be only slightly different, so that d << ra. Show that the result derived in Example 24.4 (Section 24.1) for the capacitance of a cylindrical capacitor then reduces to Eq. (24.2), the equation for the capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor, with A being the surface area of...
