MULTIVARIATE CALCULUS, CH 15 - STUDY GUIDE

 

 

1.  Set up the double integral for the volume under the surface  z = _______  and over the rectangle  R={(x,y): 0£x£___, 0£y£___}. Evaluate the integral as far as practical manually, and finish the integration with a calculator.

 

 

2.  Use a double integral in polar coordinates to find the area of the region inside one loop of the function r = _________.

 

 

3.  Evaluate  .

 

4.  Evaluate a double integral by first reversing the order of integration. 

Example: 

 

 

5.  Find the surface area of that portion of the function z = _________ which lies above the triangular region with vertices at (0,0,0), (2,0,0) and (2,1,0) [or some other description of the region may be given].

 

6.  Find the surface area for that portion of a parameterized surface r(u,v) = <x(u,v),y(u,v),z(u,v)> for -2<u<2, -3<v<3

 

7.  Find an equation of the tangent plane at a given point for a surface given parametrically

 

8.  Find the volume and centroid of the solid enclosed by the paraboloid  z=2x2+2y2  and the plane z=____  (hint:  translate to cylindrical coordinates).

 

 

9.  Use spherical coordinates to find the mass of the "ice cream cone" shaped solid below the sphere of radius ___ and above the cone z = ______ if its density is inversely proportional to the distance from the center.

 

 

10.  Rewrite the integral using an appropriate change of variables to simplify the region:     where R is the region bounded by the parallelogram with vertices (0,0), (-2,3), (2,5), and (4,2).  Alternately, you may be asked to simplify the integrand by an appropriate change of variables.  I may of may not ask you to evaluate the resulting integral.
