Verify Stokes’ Theorem for the field F = hx2,2x,z2i on the ellipse S = {(x,y,z) : 4x2 + y2 6 4, z = 0}. Solution: We compute both sides in I C F·dr = ZZ S (∇×F)·n dσ. S x y z C - 2 - 1 1 2 We start computing the circulation integral on the ellipse x2 + y2 22 = 1. We need to choose a counterclockwise parametrization, hence the normal to ...
