Motivation: Fundamental Theorems of Vector Calculus

Motivation: Fundamental Theorems of Vector Calculus Our goal as we close out the semester is to give several \Fundamental Theorem of Calculus"-type theorems which relate volume integrals of derivatives on a given domain to line and surface integrals about the boundary of the domain. The general form of these theorems, which we collectively call the fundamental theorems of vector calculus, is the following: The integral of a \derivative-type object" on a given domain D may be computed using only the function values along the boundary of D. 2. Fundamental Theorem for Conservative Vector Fields: A line integral of the form R C rVds may be computed by evaluating V at the boundary points of the 1-dimensional parametrized curve domain C. Motivation: Fundamental Theorems of Vector Calculus As an overview, we will roughly and informally summarize the content of the fundamental theorems of vector calculus. First let's start with the ones we have already seen: 1. FTC: An area integral of the form R b 0 a f (x)dx may be computed by evaluating f at the boundary points a and b of the 1-dimensional domain interval [a; b].

Suppose C may be parametrized by a continuous one-to-one R2-valued function ~c with domain [a; b], where ~c(a) = ~c(b). Then we call C a simple closed curve. If δD is a simple closed curve, then we choose to orient δD in the counterclockwise direction. This is called the boundary orientation. Definitions and Terminology Definition Let D be a region in R2. Recall that a point (x; y) is called a boundary point of D if every open disk about (x; y) intersects both D and the exterior of D. Denote the set of all boundary points of D by δD. We call δD the boundary of D. If δD is a simple closed curve, then we choose to orient δD in the counterclockwise direction. This is called the boundary orientation.
