Evaluate the line integral C(2x+y)dx+(xy)dy \int_C (2x + y) \, dx + (x - y) \, dy where C C is the curve y=x2 y = x^2 from (0,0) (0, 0) to (1,1) (1, 1) .

Solution

To evaluate the line integral C(2x+y)dx+(xy)dy \int_C (2x + y) \, dx + (x - y) \, dy where C C is the curve y=x2 y = x^2 from (0,0) (0, 0) to (1,1) (1, 1) , we parameterize the curve C C . Since y=x2 y = x^2 , let x=t x = t and y=t2 y = t^2 , where t t ranges from 0 to 1. Then dx=dt dx = dt and dy=2tdt dy = 2t \, dt . Substitute these into the integral: C(2x+y)dx+(xy)dy=01(2t+t2)dt+(tt2)(2tdt) \int_C (2x + y) \, dx + (x - y) \, dy = \int_0^1 (2t + t^2) \, dt + (t - t^2)(2t \, dt) Simplify the integrand: 01(2t+t2)dt+01(2t22t3)dt \int_0^1 (2t + t^2) \, dt + \int_0^1 (2t^2 - 2t^3) \, dt Combine the integrals: 01(2t+t2+2t22t3)dt=01(2t+3t22t3)dt \int_0^1 (2t + t^2 + 2t^2 - 2t^3) \, dt = \int_0^1 (2t + 3t^2 - 2t^3) \, dt Evaluate the integral term by term: 012tdt+013t2dt012t3dt \int_0^1 2t \, dt + \int_0^1 3t^2 \, dt - \int_0^1 2t^3 \, dt Compute each integral: 012tdt=[t2]01=1 \int_0^1 2t \, dt = \left[ t^2 \right]_0^1 = 1 013t2dt=[t3]01=1 \int_0^1 3t^2 \, dt = \left[ t^3 \right]_0^1 = 1 012t3dt=[12t4]01=12 \int_0^1 2t^3 \, dt = \left[ \frac{1}{2} t^4 \right]_0^1 = \frac{1}{2} Add the results: 1+112=32 1 + 1 - \frac{1}{2} = \frac{3}{2} Therefore, the value of the line integral is: 32 \frac{3}{2} Solved on Solvelet with Basic AI Model

DefinitionLine integrals, in general, extend the idea of the integral to situations where the path of the integration matters throughout a region in the plane or space. Just as a definite integral is a number that gives us the area under a line with coordinates defined by a function, a line integral computes the sum of a scalar or a vector field along a specific curve. The line integral of a scalar field f(x,y) along a curve C, is written as ∫C​f(x,y)ds. Then with capital F being a vector field, this would be written ∫CF⋅dr. E.g. for the line segment path from (0,0) to (1,1) and field f(x,y)=x+y it would take the form ∫C(x+y)ds.
