11 Line integrals Vector field (e.g., force or an EM field) W f dr lim f ( ri) r n i i r n r 0 Similar to a contour integral f () z dz but f ( x, y) is NOT f(x+iy) = f(z) and thus generally no anti-derivative exists. Thus it is generally path-dependent! Fool-proof way to evaluate it is to parametrize the path. ri W is path-independent f ( r) F( r) for some F(r)

12 Surface integrals I f d s lim f s S Vector field (e.g., E or B) n n i i (flux) ds For an open surface, the direction of ds ( to surface element) must be explicitly defined. For a closed surface, it is outward normal by convention. When the surface is parallel to a plane of Cartesian axes, use dx, dy, dz for the integral. E.g., if ds//e z, For general surface, parametrize it, e.g., by r = r(u,v), and d s S ezdxdy, f d s S f dxdy r r r r d s du dv, f ds f ( r) du dv u v S U u v where U is the domain of (u,v) 3

13 Surface integral of a scalar field r r I f ( r) ds f ( r) du dv S u v U ds where both the integrand f(r) and the surface element ds are taken to be scalars Example: Surface area of z = g(x,y) r r r( u, v) ( u, v, g( u, v)) (,0, gx), (0,, g y) u v r r ( gx, gy,) u v A ds g g du dv 2 2 x y S T
