Ap = 1, p 1 = 2, q = 5. Hence f (x, y) = x 3y , and axb y c = 5x3y i.e. (a, b, c) =

( 53 , 3, 4). In general, as the domain R3 is connected, so the potential function are
defined up to an arbitrary constant, i.e. (a, b, c) = ( 35 , 3, 4) is the unique solution.

1. Find the area of the region R bounded by one loop of the curve
C : x = sin(2t), y(t) = sin t, (0 t 2).
Solution.
As r(t) = (sin(2t), sin t) = sin t(cos t, 1). One can see that
sin t(cos t, 1) = r(t) = r(0) = (0, 0) if and only if sin t = 0, i.e. t = n for
some integer n. So the curve r(t) forms a loop for 0 t . It follows from
Greens

3. Evaluate C F T dr where F(x, y) = (ex + x2 y)i + (ey xy 2 )j and C is the

counterclockwise-oriented circle x2 + y 2 = 25.
Solution. Let F(x, y) = (ex + x2 y)i + (ey xy 2 )j = P (x, y)i + Q(x, y)j, then one
can compute Qx Py = (y 2 ) (x2 ) = (x2 + y 2 ). We apply Greens theorem,
which applies because the circle x2 + y 2 = 25 is a simple closed curve. The region
inside the curve is { (x, y) | x2 + y 2 25 }, so

Remark. We see that F is not conservative (if it were, the line integral would be
zero automatically, since C is closed).
4. (a) Find real numbers a, b and c such that the vector field F(x, y) = (x2 y 5 , axb y c )
is conservative on the entire plane R2 .
(b) Find a function f suchthat f = F on R2 where F is in (a)
(c) Find (by any method) C F T ds, where F is in (a), and C is the path x(t) =
sin t, y(t) = 1 + sin(2t), /2 t /2.
Solution. (a) First we have try a potential function f (x, y) = Axp y q , then one
can compare (x2 y 5 , axb y c ) = F(x, y) = f (x, y) = A(pxp1 y q , qxp y q1 ) , so
(b) The potential function f (x, y) = x 3y + C, where C is an arbitrary constant.

8. Determine if F(x, y, z) = z cos(xz)i + ey j + x cos(xz)k is conservative, and find all
potential function of the vector field if F is conservative.
Solution. (i) One can evaluate curl F(x, y, z) = (0, 0, 0), and its domain is simply
connected, it follows from curl test that F is conservative on R3 , i.e. there exists
a differentiable function f (x, y, z) in R3 such that f = F on R3 .
(ii) As R3 is connected, so if one can find a potential function f (x, y, z) satisfying
, then all the other potential function will be f (x, y, z)+C where C is an arbitrary
constant. One can try f (x, y, z) = sin(xz) + ey in which one can verify .
