As stated in class, you are allowed to bring to the test one 8.5x11 inch
page, written on both sides. You can write whatever you want on this page:
eg. definitions, formulas, examples, etc. Calculators will be allowed for
the test.
Chapter 15 - Multiple Integrals - Sections 15.6-15.9
Triple Integrals
- definition
- interpretation
- compute algebraically
- change limits of integration
- applications of integrals: volume, area, average value,
total (mass, population, charge), center of mass, moments, moments of inertia,
probability
Change of Variables in Integration
- cylindrical coordinates
- spherical coordinates
- any coordinate system: use Jacobian to change coordinate systems
Review Homework for Chapter 15, pg 1022: #23-27 odds, 31, 33, 47, 48
Chapter 16 - Vector Calculus - Sections 16.1-16.3
Parameterization of Curves
- parameterize lines, circles, curves in general
Vector Fields
- visualize/draw vector fields
- types of vector fields: velocity fields, force fields, gravitional fields,
gradient vector fields
- compute gradient vector fields
Line Integrals
- definition
- properties
- line integrals of scalar functions with respect to arc length & x and y
- line integrals of vector fields
- interpretation of line integrals of vector fields: work
- compute line integral over a parameterized curve
- terminology: path independent = conservative = gradient vector field
- determine whether a vector field is path-independent (items 1-3 below)
- 1) path-independent fields: curl test - if curl = 0, field is path-independent
- 2) path-independent fields: gradient fields are path-independent
- 3) path-independent fields: if a curve is closed and line integral is zero,
vector field is path-independent and so is a gradient field
- find potential function of a path independent / conservative / gradient vector field
- Fundamental Theorem of Calculus for Line Integrals - if curl = 0, find f
and apply F.T.L.I.
