Verifying Green's theorem for a function












0












$begingroup$


Let



$G = { (x,y) in mathbb{R}^2 : x^2+4y^2 >1, x^2+y^2 < 4 } $



$ int_G x^2+y^2 d(x,y) $



I want to verify Green's Theorem :
$ oint_{ partial G } f n ds = int_G operatorname{div}f, dx $



I solved for he righthand side:



$ int_G operatorname{div}f dx = frac{25}{32} pi $,



just by calculating the Integral for the circle and the ellipse separately and subtract.



For the lefthand side, I need to find $ f: G rightarrow mathbb{R^2} $ so that $ operatorname{div}f = x^2+y^2 $
that can be $ f=( frac{1}{3} x^3 , frac{1}{3} y^3 ) $



now my question is, how to proceed? :0
Do I have to split the region?
Is $ n= frac{1}{ sqrt{ (frac{1}{3} x^3 )^2+ ( frac{1}{3}y^3 )^2}} begin{pmatrix} frac{1}{3} x^3 \ frac{1}{3} y^3 end{pmatrix} $ ?



Looking forward to any help! :-)

$mathbf r$ is not normal to the ellipse. If the boundary is parametrized as $mathbf r(t) = (x(t), y(t))$, then $mathbf n(t) = (y'(t), -x'(t))$ is normal to the boundary and
$$int_{partial D} mathbf F cdot frac {mathbf n} {|mathbf n|} ,ds =
int_a^b mathbf F cdot frac {mathbf n} {|mathbf n|} ,|mathbf r'| ,dt =
int_a^b mathbf F cdot mathbf n ,dt.$$
We have $mathbf F = (x^3/3, y^3/3), ,mathbf r_1(t) = (cos t, 1/2 sin t), ,mathbf r_2(t) = (2 cos t, 2 sin t)$, thus
$$begin{aligned}
&begin{aligned}
int_{partial D} mathbf F cdot mathbf n ,dt =
&int_0^{2 pi} left( frac {cos^3 t} 3, frac {sin^3 t} {24} right) cdot
left( -frac {cos t} 2, -sin t right) dt + {} \
&int_0^{2 pi} left( frac {8 cos^3 t} 3, frac {8 sin^3 t} {3} right) cdot
(2 cos t, 2 sin t) ,dt,
end{aligned} \
&int_D nabla cdot mathbf F ,dS =
int_0^{2 pi} int_{1/sqrt{cos^2 t + 4 sin^2 t}}^2 ,r^3 dr dt.
end{aligned}$$
Both are equal to $251 pi/32$.

    $f=x^2+y^2=r^2=f=nabla cdot (r^3/4 hat{r})$



    So $vec{F}=frac{r^3}{4}hat{r}$



    The normal to a "surface" in 2d is the unit vector perpendicular to the tangent line.



    The curves here can be parameterized as



    $x=acos{theta}$



    $y=bsin{theta}$



    Where for the ellipse $a=1$, $b=1/2$. For the circle $a=b=2$



    The tangent line vector is $-asin{theta}hat{i}+bcos{theta}hat{j}$



    So the normal line vector is $bcos{theta}hat{i}+asin{theta}vec{j}$



    So the unit normal



    $hat{n}= frac{<bcos{theta}, asin{theta}>}{sqrt{b^2cos^2{theta}+a^2sin^2{theta}}}$



    $vec{r}=<acos{theta}, bsin{theta}>$



    So $vec{F}cdot hat{n}dA =frac{r^2}{4}frac{ab}{sqrt{b^2cos^2{theta}+a^2sin^2{theta}}} dtheta $



    You probably want to run that integral clockwise around the ellipse and counter clockwise around the circle. Integrate from 0 to $2pi$

      I'm saying that if $mathbf n = (b cos theta, a sin theta)$, then $|mathbf n| = sqrt{b^2 cos^2 theta + a^2 sin^2 theta}$. Also, the divergence of $r^3/3 ,hat {mathbf r}$ is not $r^2$, it's $4 r^2/3$. And what is $dA$? Area element?

            $f=x^2+y^2=r^2=f=nabla cdot (r^3/4 hat{r})$



            So $vec{F}=frac{r^3}{4}hat{r}$



            The normal to a "surface" in 2d is the unit vector perpendicular to the tangent line.



            The curves here can be parameterized as



            $x=acos{theta}$



            $y=bsin{theta}$



            Where for the ellipse $a=1$, $b=1/2$. For the circle $a=b=2$



            The tangent line vector is $-asin{theta}hat{i}+bcos{theta}hat{j}$



            So the normal line vector is $bcos{theta}hat{i}+asin{theta}vec{j}$



            So the unit normal



            $hat{n}= frac{<bcos{theta}, asin{theta}>}{sqrt{b^2cos^2{theta}+a^2sin^2{theta}}}$



            $vec{r}=<acos{theta}, bsin{theta}>$



            So $vec{F}cdot hat{n}dA =frac{r^2}{4}frac{ab}{sqrt{b^2cos^2{theta}+a^2sin^2{theta}}} dtheta $



            You probably want to run that integral clockwise around the ellipse and counter clockwise around the circle. Integrate from 0 to $2pi$

            How to change which sound is reproduced for terminal bell?

            Image
            3 Recently upgrade to 18.10 from 18.04, and using the terminal is becoming annoying: the new alert sound is a drip ( /usr/share/sounds/gnome/default/alerts/drip.ogg ), and the previous one is still located at ( /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/bell.ogg ). My issue is that at the gnome-terminal, when autocompleting or pressing left BOTH sounds are reproduced, at the same time. I want to just have ubuntu/stereo/bell.ogg active, not both . At the moment I have been only able to reduce the volume of the alerts (but still both are played), or turn the alerts down (but I dislike both "solutions"). gnome-terminal 18.10 teminal-bell share | improve this question

            Title Spacing in Bjornstrup Chapter, Removing Chapter Number From Contents

            Image
            up vote 5 down vote favorite 2 I would like to make it so that the vertical space below the title of each chapter is the same when using the Bjornstrup package (i.e. so that the descenders do not affect the spacing - as shown by the red arrow in the picture below). I think I'm fairly happy with the spacing around "A chapter", so I'd really like titles without descenders (e.g. "Contents") to have the same vertical spacing as "A chapter" below the title. I would also like to remove the large "0" in the contents title.
