Lecture 15 Multiple Integration Lecture 15 Multiple Integration (Relevant section from Stewart, Section 15.1) We now turn to the integration of scalar-valued functions f : Rn R, i.e., f(x ,x , , c ), over → 1 2 · · · n regions in Rn. The need to perform such integrations is common in Physics. For example, we may wish to find: 1. The total charge Q in a region R R3 that is enclosed by a closed surface S, e.g., a spherical ⊂ surface of radius R centered at a point p R3, ∈ 2. The probability of finding an electron in the 1s state of a hydrogen atom within the distance α/a from the nucleus, where α 0 and a is the so-called Bohr radius. 0 ≥ 0 In all cases, the idea of integrating scalar-valued functions of several variables is a natural generalization of the integration of real-valued functions of a single variable, i.e., f : R R over the real line R. → We simply have to keep in mind the “Spirit of Calculus,” where we subdivide the region of interest and perform a summation over the subregions. Double Integrals (Integration in R2) (Relevant sections from Stewart, Section 15.1-2) We begin with the integration of functions of two variables, f(x,y), over regions in the plane R2. Suppose that a function f : R R2 is defined → over a region R R2. ⊂ Example: f(x,y) is the (2D or “areal”) density of a thin plate at (x,y), a measure of the amount of mass per unit area around the point (x,y). 110 The amount of mass ∆m in a small rectangle ∆x, ∆y centered at (x,y) is ∆m ∼= f(x,y)∆x, ∆y Question: What is the total mass of the plate? Answer: M = f(x,y) dA ( where dA = dx dy or dy dx) Z ZR Suppose region R is contained in the rectangular region a x b ≤ ≤ c y d ≤ ≤ In the “Spirit of Calculus,” we perform the following procedures: b a 1. Divide [a, b] into n subintervals Ii = [xi 1,xi], i = 1, 2, ,n, of length ∆x = − . − · · · n d c 2. Divide [c, d] into m subintervals Jj = [xj 1,xj], j = 1, 2, ,m, of length ∆y = − . − · · · m This produces n m tiny rectangles of area ∆A =∆x∆y. × 3. From each rectangle, ∆A , pick a sample point (x ,y ), where x I ,y J . ij i∗ j∗ i∗ ∈ i j∗ ∈ j 4. Evaluate f(xi∗,yj∗) at the sample point. 5. Now form the sum n m Snm ′ ′f(xi∗,yj∗)∆A, Xi=1 jX=1 where the primes indicate that we sum only over those rectangles ∆Aij for which ∆Aij contains points in R. 111 Claim: In the limits n,m , so that ∆A =∆A 0, the Riemann sums S , i.e., →∞ ij → mn Snm “ f(x,y) dA ” → Z ZR where the expression in quotes denotes the “ double integral of the function f over the region R. ” Particular applications: 1. If f(x,y) is the mass density function ρ, then R ρ dA is the total mass of the plate. R R 2. If f(x,y) is the charge density function ρ, then R ρ dA is the total charge on the plate. R R 3. For the special case where f(x,y) = 1, then R dA = the area of R, since we are simply summing over the areas ∆A of rectangles thatR contain R points of R. 112 Practical Calculation: We consider the summations involved in the Riemann sums as the result of a “nested ‘for’ loop”: 1. Column-wise Scan of R sum := 0 for i from 1 to n (a x b) ≤ ≤ for j from j (i) to j (i) (y (x) y y (x)) lower upper lower ≤ ≤ upper sum := sum + f( )∆x∆y end for loop end for loop 2. Row-wise Scan of R sum:= 0 for j from 1 to m (c x d) ≤ ≤ for i from i (j) to i (j) (x (y) x x (y)) lower upper lower ≤ ≤ upper sum := sum + f( )∆x∆y end for loop end for loop 113 The simplest case is when the region R is a rectangular region, i.e., a x b, c y d, which ≤ ≤ ≤ ≤ we often write as the “tensor product”, [a, b] [c, d]. In this case, we don’t have to worry about what × the “upper” or “lower” indices of integration are: We always integrate x from a to b and y from c to d. We illustrate with an example. Example: Evaluate the double integral (x2 + 5y) dA, (1) Z ZR where R is the rectangular region, 0 x 10, 0 y 3. ≤ ≤ ≤ ≤ Method No. 1: Columnwise scan We scan the rectangular region with vertical slices of thickness dx centered at x. For each x ∈ [0, 10], we scan the vertical slice from y = 0 to y = 3. As a result, Outer integration: 0 x 10. • ≤ ≤ Inner integration: 0 y 3. • ≤ ≤ This is a nested integration - a continuous version of the columnwise nested summation that we presented earlier. y Region R dx 3 x 0 x 10 Columnwise integration over region R We consider the inner integration first: For each x [0, 10], we have the integral ∈ 3 (x2 + 5y) dy. (2) Z0 114 We “nest” this integral inside the outer integral over x. The result is 10 3 (x2 + 5y) dy dx. (3) Z0 Z0 This is known as an iterated integral (because we’ll have to perform two integrations). To evaluate this integral, we consider the inner integral in (2) first. Recall that x is considered to be fixed: For each fixed x, we integrate over y. We expect that the result will probably be dependent on x. We use the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus to evaluate the inner integral. Since it involves an integration over y, we’ll use the partial antiderivative of the integrand with respect to y, i.e., 3 1 y=3 (x2 + 5y) dy = x2y + y2 . (4) 5 Z0 y=0 Note that I have written “y = 0” and “y = 3” for the limits, instead of simply “0” and “10”. The latter is certainly acceptable, but when dealing with several variables, it is often helpful to indicate exactly which variable is going to be replaced with a value. In this case, it would be easy to replace x with 0 and 3. Let us now go ahead and evaluate the above antiderivative: 3 1 y=3 (x2 + 5y) dy = x2y + y2 5 Z0 y=0 45 = 3x2 + . (5) 2 We now insert this result into the outer integral, i.e., 10 45 45 10 3x2 + dx = x3 + x 2 x Z0 0 450 = 1000 + 2 = 1225. (6) Therefore, the value of the integral over the rectangular region, as obtained by Method No. 1, is (x2 + 5y) dA = 1225. (7) Z ZR Method No. 2: Row-wise scan We scan the rectangular region with horizontal slices of thickness dy centered at y. For each y [0, 3], we scan the vertical slice from x = 0 to x = 10. As a result, ∈ 115 Outer integration: 0 y 3. • ≤ ≤ Inner integration: 0 x 10. • ≤ ≤ This is a continuous version of the second nested summation that we presented earlier. y Region R 3 y dy x 0 10 Rowwise integration over region R We consider the inner integration first: For each y [0, 3], we have the integral ∈ 10 (x2 + 5y) dx. (8) Z0 We “nest” this integral inside the outer integral over y. The result is 3 10 (x2 + 5y) dx dy. (9) Z0 Z0 Again, we consider the inner integral in (8) first. Recall that y is considered to be fixed: For each fixed y, we integrate over x. We expect that the result will probably be dependent on y. Once again, we use the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus to evaluate the inner integral. Since it involves an integration over x, we’ll use the partial antiderivative of the integrand with respect to x, i.e., 10 1 x=10 (x2 + 5y) dx = x3 + 5xy . (10) 3 Z0 x=0 Now evaluate the above antiderivative: 10 1 x=10 (x2 + 5y) dx = x3 + 5xy 3 Z0 x=0 1000 = + 50y. (11) 3 116 We now insert this result into the outer integral, i.e., 3 1000 1000 3 + 50y dy = y + 25y2 3 3 Z0 0 = 1000 + 225 = 1225. (12) Therefore, using Method No. 2, the value of our integral over the rectangular region is (x2 + 5y) dA = 1225, (13) Z ZR in agreement with that of Method No. 1. This example illustrates that, as probably expected, the value of the integral does not depend on the method used to evaluate it. In fact, for sufficiently “nice” functions and boundary curves, the value of the double integral, f(x,y) dA, (14) Z ZD should be independent of the method of integration used. What does “nice” mean? Well, for example, 1. f(x,y) is continuous over the region D and 2. the boundary ∂D of D is piecewise differentiable, that is, it is the union of a finite number of curves Ci, each of which have well-defined tangent vectors at all points, except possibly at the endpoints. That being said, we may relax the requirement in 1) to read f(x,y) is piecewise continuous over the region D. The formal mathematical result is known as Fubini’s Theorem. You can find a short discussion in Stewart’s textbook, p. 961. The “meaning” of this double integral Think of the integrand f(x,y) = x2 + 5y as a weighting function over the region of integration R – it could represent the mass density of a rectangular plate.

  • Antiderivatives and the Area Problem
    Chapter 7 antiderivatives and the area problem Let me begin by defining the terms in the title: 1. an antiderivative of f is another function F such that F 0 = f. 2. the area problem is: ”find the area of a shape in the plane" This chapter is concerned with understanding the area problem and then solving it through the fundamental theorem of calculus(FTC). We begin by discussing antiderivatives. At first glance it is not at all obvious this has to do with the area problem. However, antiderivatives do solve a number of interesting physical problems so we ought to consider them if only for that reason. The beginning of the chapter is devoted to understanding the type of question which an antiderivative solves as well as how to perform a number of basic indefinite integrals. Once all of this is accomplished we then turn to the area problem. To understand the area problem carefully we'll need to think some about the concepts of finite sums, se- quences and limits of sequences. These concepts are quite natural and we will see that the theory for these is easily transferred from some of our earlier work. Once the limit of a sequence and a number of its basic prop- erties are established we then define area and the definite integral. Finally, the remainder of the chapter is devoted to understanding the fundamental theorem of calculus and how it is applied to solve definite integrals. I have attempted to be rigorous in this chapter, however, you should understand that there are superior treatments of integration(Riemann-Stieltjes, Lesbeque etc..) which cover a greater variety of functions in a more logically complete fashion.

These are different functions!) To find the inverse function, solve the equation f(x) = y. The solution g(y) is the inverse of f. For example, to find the inverse of f(x)=3+1/x, we solve the equation 1 3 + 1/x = y 1/x = y 3 x = . ⇒ − ⇒ y 3 − The inverse function of f is g(y) = 1/(y 3). − 12.4.2 Limits and continuity A function f(x) has a limit L at a point x0 if f(x) approaches L when x approaches x0.

  • 1. Antiderivatives for Exponential Functions Recall That for F(X) = Ec⋅X, F ′(X) = C ⋅ Ec⋅X (For Any Constant C)
    1. Antiderivatives for exponential functions Recall that for f(x) = ec⋅x, f ′(x) = c ⋅ ec⋅x (for any constant c). That is, ex is its own derivative. So it makes sense that it is its own antiderivative as well! Theorem 1.1 (Antiderivatives of exponential functions). Let f(x) = ec⋅x for some 1 constant c. Then F x ec⋅c D, for any constant D, is an antiderivative of ( ) = c + f(x). 1 c⋅x ′ 1 c⋅x c⋅x Proof. Consider F (x) = c e +D. Then by the chain rule, F (x) = c⋅ c e +0 = e . So F (x) is an antiderivative of f(x). Of course, the theorem does not work for c = 0, but then we would have that f(x) = e0 = 1, which is constant. By the power rule, an antiderivative would be F (x) = x + C for some constant C. 1 2. Antiderivative for f(x) = x We have the power rule for antiderivatives, but it does not work for f(x) = x−1. 1 However, we know that the derivative of ln(x) is x . So it makes sense that the 1 antiderivative of x should be ln(x). Unfortunately, it is not. But it is close. 1 1 Theorem 2.1 (Antiderivative of f(x) = x ). Let f(x) = x . Then the antiderivatives of f(x) are of the form F (x) = ln(SxS) + C. Proof. Notice that ln(x) for x > 0 F (x) = ln(SxS) = . ln(−x) for x < 0 ′ 1 For x > 0, we have [ln(x)] = x .

  • Antiderivatives Math 121 Calculus II D Joyce, Spring 2013
    Antiderivatives Math 121 Calculus II D Joyce, Spring 2013 Antiderivatives and the constant of integration. We'll start out this semester talking about antiderivatives. If the derivative of a function F isf, that is, F 0 = f, then we say F is an antiderivative of f. Of course, antiderivatives are important in solving problems when you know a derivative but not the function, but we'll soon see that lots of questions involving areas, volumes, and other things also come down to finding antiderivatives. That connection we'll see soon when we study the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus (FTC). For now, we'll just stick to the basic concept of antiderivatives. We can find antiderivatives of polynomials pretty easily. Suppose that we want to find an antiderivative F (x) of the polynomial f(x) = 4x3 + 5x2 − 3x + 8: We can find one by finding an antiderivative of each term and adding the results together. Since the derivative of x4 is 4x3, therefore an antiderivative of 4x3 is x4. It's not much harder to find an antiderivative of 5x2. Since the derivative of x3 is 3x2, an antiderivative of 5x2 is 5 3 3 x . Continue on and soon you see that an antiderivative of f(x) is 4 5 3 3 2 F (x) = x + 3 x − 2 x + 8x: There are, however, other antiderivatives of f(x). Since the derivative of a constant is 0, 4 5 3 3 2 we can add any constant to F (x) to find another antiderivative. Thus, x + 3 x − 2 x +8x+7 4 5 3 3 2 is another antiderivative of f(x).

  • Derivatives and Antiderivatives
    Lesson R MA 16020 Nick Egbert Note. There should be no new information in this lesson. This is a brief review of things you should have learned in Calculus I, but certainly not exhaustive. Derivatives and antiderivatives There are several derivative anti derivative rules that you should have pretty well-memorized at this point: It is very important that you know these well to make the transition into this course go smoothly. Definition. Given a continuous function f(x), if F 0(x) = f(x); we say that F (x) is an antiderivative of f(x); and we write Z F (x) = f(x) dx: 1 Lesson R MA 16020 Nick Egbert Remark. If F (x) is an antiderivative of f(x) then the indefinite integral of f is given by Z f(x) dx = F (x) + C; where C is some constant. This means that any two functions which differ by only a constant will have the same antiderivative. Remark. We want to note a couple things about the notation R f(x)dx: 1. The process of computing R f(x)dx can be called antidifferentiation 5 integration 5 taking or evaluating the integral 2. f(5x) is called the integrand. 3. Writing the \dx" on the outside is essential. This tells us that we are integrating with respect to x. It will especially be important in MA 16020 when we start having integrals with more than one variable. Fundamental theorem of calculus Theorem. If f is a real-valued continuous function on the interval [a; b]; and F the antiderivative of f: Z x F (x) = f(t) dt; a Then F 0(x) = f(x) for all x in the interval (a; b): In particular, we have that Z b f(t) dt = F (b) − F (a): a This has an important geometric interpretation.

    Chapter 11 Multiple Integrals 11.1 Double Riemann Sums and Double Integrals over Rectangles Motivating Questions In this section, we strive to understand the ideas generated by the following important questions: What is a double Riemann sum? • How is the double integral of a continuous function f = f(x; y) defined? • What are two things the double integral of a function can tell us? • Introduction In single-variable calculus, recall that we approximated the area under the graph of a positive function f on an interval [a; b] by adding areas of rectangles whose heights are determined by the curve. The general process involved subdividing the interval [a; b] into smaller subintervals, constructing rectangles on each of these smaller intervals to approximate the region under the curve on that subinterval, then summing the areas of these rectangles to approximate the area under the curve. We will extend this process in this section to its three-dimensional analogs, double Riemann sums and double integrals over rectangles. Preview Activity 11.1. In this activity we introduce the concept of a double Riemann sum. (a) Review the concept of the Riemann sum from single-variable calculus. Then, explain how R b we define the definite integral a f(x) dx of a continuous function of a single variable x on an interval [a; b]. Include a sketch of a continuous function on an interval [a; b] with appropriate labeling in order to illustrate your definition.

  • Antiderivatives Basic Integration Formulas Structural Type Formulas
    Antiderivatives Definition 1 (Antiderivative). If F 0(x) = f(x) we call F an antideriv- ative of f. Definition 2 (Indefinite Integral). If F is an antiderivative of f, then R f(x) dx = F (x) + c is called the (general) Indefinite Integral of f, where c is an arbitrary constant. The indefinite integral of a function represents every possible antideriv- ative, since it has been shown that if two functions have the same de- rivative on an interval then they differ by a constant on that interval. Terminology: When we write R f(x) dx, f(x) is referred to as the in- tegrand. Basic Integration Formulas As with differentiation, there are two types of formulas, formulas for the integrals of specific functions and structural type formulas. Each formula for the derivative of a specific function corresponds to a formula for the derivative of an elementary function. The following table lists integration formulas side by side with the corresponding differentiation formulas. Z xn+1 d xn dx = if n 6= −1 (xn) = nxn−1 n + 1 dx Z d sin x dx = − cos x + c (cos x) = − sin x dx Z d cos x dx = sin x + c (sin x) = cos x dx Z d sec2 x dx = tan x + c (tan x) = sec2 x dx Z d ex dx = ex + c (ex) = ex dx Z 1 d 1 dx = ln x + c (ln x) = x dx x Z d k dx = kx + c (kx) = k dx Structural Type Formulas We may integrate term-by-term: R kf(x) dx = k R f(x) dx 1 2 R f(x) ± g(x) dx = R f(x) dx ± R g(x) dx In plain language, the integral of a constant times a function equals the constant times the derivative of the function and the derivative of a sum or difference is equal to the sum or difference of the derivatives.
