Evaluating Surface Integrals

  • Surface integrals are kind of like higher-dimensional line integrals, it's just that instead of integrating over a curve C, we are integrating over a surface S. This can be tricky, but it has lots of applications, so let's learn how to do these things!

    Thank you for the video!
    I could actually calculate the comprehension problem in my head b/c it's quite intuitive.
    Basically the surface S is an inclined plane (z=1+x) that given the x limits goes from z=1 up to z=2.
    Since we want to integrate f=z on that plane, we can take the area of the plane (i.e. 2*√2), and multiply it by the average value of z (i.e. z=1.5), leading to the final answer of 3*√2.
    NOTE: The area of the plane is 2*√2 b/c the length of one side of the plane is the y range (equal to 2) and the other is √2 b/c that other side of the plane goes across 1 unit (x=0 -> x=1) as it goes up 1 unit too (z=1 -> z=2).

I am fairly certain that it should be positive. however when taking the magnitude of it the negative goes away so it doesn't actually change the answer. idk correct me if I am wrong.

    • @carultch
      @carultch Рік тому +1

      You can parametrize it however you want, as long as you fully describe the surface in question, with your parametric equations. However, there often are ways you can parametrize it that will significantly simplify the remaining work.
      For instance, in your example, I could parametrize it as:
      x = u*cos(3*v)
      y = u*sin(3*v)
      z = 3*v
      But I wouldn't really accomplish anything by making a more complicated definition of my parameter v. I'll get the same results as if I kept it simple, and stuck with z=v, and defined everything else in terms of that.

    • @JensenPlaysMC
      @JensenPlaysMC 3 роки тому +4

      yes. this isnt rigorous but here it is.
      assume surface can be paramaterised into r(u,v) then a small change to r caused by one lf the variables is (dr) as dr/du is ratio of change in r caused by u, to u itself so dr/du *(du) is the actual change to r caused by u. this is a vector qauntaty. imagine limit sum of a difference in r's value being a tangential vector to the surface. now do the same for achange jn v an you have two vectors relating to a small change along the surface. by taking a cross product between these you then get a vector with a magnitude of the area of a small ds

      So I noticed that the sqrt(2) is missing it seems he used the formula 6:05 it seem we are given a scalar field or a function or f(x,y,z) so this is the formula for scalar field / function when the surface "z" is in terms of x and y parametric equation which is at 6:10, the one he used at 11:48 is the formula for the vector field F. And if we plug it in, we'll get 3*sqrt(2)

    • @Gamesanty334Blogspot
      @Gamesanty334Blogspot 3 роки тому +11

      When you square any negative number, the answer is always positive, since a negative number times a negative number equals a positive one.
      That said, if we evaluate, for example, (-2)², the answer will be 4, since (-2)(-2) = 4. Note how this is the same as evaluating 2², which also equals 4.
      Note how (-2)² equals (-2)(-2). This is not the same as -2², which equals -(2)(2), which is the same as -4.
      The same happens with cos(v) and (-cos(v)).
      Since we are evaluating (-cos(v))(-cos(v)), we get a positive answer. If we were evaluating -(cos(v))(cos(v)), the answer would be negative (be aware of the negative sign outside the parenthesis).
      Since we know (-cos(v))² is positive and has the same magnitude as (cos(v))², which is also positive, then they must evaluate to exactly the same.
      Since (-cos(v))² = (cos(v))², (sin(v))² + (-cos(v))² also equals one.

      if in a vector field you must, first of all, parameterize the surface you are interested in, i mean, the surface in which the vector field is flowing through, remember surface integral calculate the flux throughout a surface in R3. once you parameterize your surface [ r(u,v)=(u,v,g(u,v)) being u,v the two parametrization variables ] and then you calculate the cross product and there you got the normal vector. after that, the force field you are given must be changed in terms of the u and v variables. after that you are left with two vectors and calculate teh dot product of them and there it is what you need to double integrate

    Whoever came up with using u and v as the two variables would have chosen better variables if they'd had my handwriting. What on Earth were these people thinking. ςigma and τau would've worked just as nicely. μu or νu would've sufficed as well. u and v. picard facepalm.

      @@HarpSeal I have a 1960s calc book that uses ξ to represent little Δx* when explaining Riemann sums, and also uses ξ elsewhere. it's kind of strange to see.

    See thats the thing...there was no practical application example here...like i am trying to sketch a Vane of impeller i am designing and...this is useless to me...
    Mathematics wouod be much more interesting if instead of just blatant numbers they would give us practical application of the formulaes...
