    • @ivangushkov3651
      @ivangushkov3651 6 років тому +6

      The logic behind it, is that dS is NdA, where N is a normal vector given as (-dz/dx, -dz/dy, 1) (this comes from a cross product between two other vectors, but don´t worry about it just use it). When you dot the curl with that normal vector you get the answer she showed, it´s just that she skipped over that step.

    Krista, I love ALL your videos, but I don't think your integral is correct at 10:41. I am getting 0 and not -9[2pi].
    I can send you my handworked notes as well but I just did double-check on Wolfram.
    -9 * Integral[1-cos(2pi)]dt = Integral[-9+9cos(2pi)]dt = 0
    The reason why will be obvious right away unless I've made a mistake by hand here.
    EDIT:
    It just occurred to me! that
    -9[2pi] = -18pi = 0
    Even though I drew it out .... I still prefer 0

    • @ivangushkov3651
      @ivangushkov3651 6 років тому +1

      In the first example you don´t need to find dS, as you are going the other way around with the theorem. When you go the other way around and parametrize the circle you get to integrate with respect to the parameter anyway. In the second example, if you go the "usual" way with the theorem, you actually have to evaluate dS, which is NdA, where N is a normal vector to the surface S. You get that normal vector as (-dz/dx, -dz/dy, 1) and you dot the curl with it.

    Suggestion: You should use arrows and hats to indicate vectors. For example: 'dS' is as a vector because the flux is always calculated in the normal direction. In the video, you didn't use the symbol, not even wrote the 'n' vector in the formula. For those who are still learning, it can be messy to understand. Surely dot/cross products occur only between vectors, but doing this will emphasize some concepts and help to connect with other references.
