Conservative and Irrotational Fields efinition A differentiable vector field F is called irrotational if F = yi + xj Example The vector field F(x, y) = x 2 + y 2 is irrotational on = R 2 \ {(, )}, but we had proved that F is not conservative on efinition Let be a region in space, is called simply connected, if every simple closed curve in can be continuously shrunk to a point while staying inside Examples (a) The entire plane, entire space are simply connected; (b) Rectangle, the sphere and ball are simply connected; (c) The interior of a torus, and the punctured plane are not a simply connected
Proposition Let F be a continuous vector field defined on a region, prove that the line integral of F is independent of path if and only if F T ds = for any piecewise smooth closed curve C in C Proof uppose that line integral of F is independent of path, then let C be any closed curve with the same starting and terminal point A, then the constant path C with A for all t is also a curve with the same starting and terminal point A It follows from the path independence of C the line integral of F that F T ds = F T ds = F ds = C C Conversely, suppose C 1 and C 2 are two paths, both of them starts from the same point A, and terminates at point B Let C = C 1 ( C 2 ) be a closed path from A to B via C 1, and back from B to A via C 2 (in reverse direction of C 2 ) Then C is a piecewise smooth closed curve in, hence one has = F T ds = F T ds + F T ds = F T ds F T ds C C 1 C 2 C 1 C 2 Hence F T ds = F T ds o the line integral of F is C 1 C 2 independence of path
Theorem Let F be a continuously differentiable vector field in a simply connected region in space Then the vector field F is irrotational if and only if it is conservative; that is F = in if and only if F = f for some scalar function f defined on olution If F = f, then F = f = on Conversely, suppose that F is irrotational on, one wants to define a function f (x, y, z) such that f = F on Following the same idea in the planar case, Let A(a, b, c) and B(x, y, z) be two points in, and C be a path from A to B If one can show that the line integral of F is path independent, then define f (x, y, z) = (x,y,z) (a,b,c) F T ds, which depends only on the end points of C Then it follows from continuity of the vector field F that f = F on It remains to show that the line integral of F is independent of path, which is equivalent to the fact that F T ds = for any closed path C in As is simply connected, it C follows one can shrink the curve C continuously to a path in such way that C bounds a surface via the shrinking, then F T ds = ( F) n d = n d = C
ummary of Line Integral of Vector Field Let F be a vector field defined on a region Then we can summary our important result as follows: F is conservative on F = f for some function f ( ) xy = ( ) yx F T ds = F = on C for any closed path in imply connected = tokes Thm Remark Conservative vector field is irrotational; but the converse is not true In fact, it depends on the domain of the vector field ( ( y, x) compare the lower horizontal arrow) An example is F(x, y) = x 2 +y 2 on R 2 \ {(, )}
Example (a) how that the vector field F(x, y, z) = 3x 2 i + 5z 2 j + 1yzk is irrotational on R 3 (b) Find a potential function f (x, y, z) such that f = F olution (a) One needs to show that F(x, y, z) = (3x 3, 5z 2, 1yz) = (1z 1z)i = (b) One can use the line integral of F along the segment from (,, ) to (x, y, z) by r(t) = (tx, ty, tz) for t 1 as follows: f (x, y, z) = = = 1 1 (x,y,z) (,,) F T ds ( 3(tx) 2, 5(tz) 2, 1(ty)(tz) ) (x, y, z) dt (3x 3 + 15yz 2 )t 2 dt = x 3 + 5yz 2 + C
Example Let T be the solid bounded by the paraboloids 1 : z = x 2 + 2y 2 and 2 : z = 12 2x 2 y 2 Evaluate the outward flux of F(x, y, z) = xi + yj + zk across the boundary of T olution Project the solid onto the xy-plane with its shadow R Let Q(x, y, z) be the intersection of 1 and 2, then z = x 2 + 2y 2 = z = 12 2x 2 y 2, so 3(x 2 + y 2 ) = 12, then x 2 + y 2 = 4 Then the image Q (x, y) of Q in R satisfies the equation x 2 + y 2 = 2 2, ie Q lies on a circle Inside the circular disc R, we have x 2 + y 2 2, so it follows that x 2 + 2y 2 12 2x 2 y 2, and hence T = { (x, y, z) x 2 + y 2 2 2, x 2 + 2y 2 z 12 2x 2 y 2 } It follows from divergence theorem that 12 2x 2 y 2 F n d = F dv = (1 + 1 + 1) dv 2π 2 = 3 (12 3r 2 )r drdθ = 6π T x 2 +y 2 2 2 x 2 +2y 2 [ 6r 2 3 4 r4 ] 2 = 6π(24 12) = 72π
Example Let F(x, y, z) = (x + y)i + (y x)j + zk be vector field Let be the hemisphere x 2 + y 2 + z 2 = 4, z, and n be the outward pointing unit normal vector field of Then curlf ndσ is olution The boundary of is the circle given by C : r(t) = ( x(t), y(t), z(t) ) = (2 cos t, 2 sin t, ), t 2π From the tokes theorem, we have curlf ndσ = F Tds = = = 2π t= 2π 2π C [ (x(t) + y(t))x (t) + (y(t) x(t))y (t) + z(t)z (t) ]dt 4(cos t + sin t) sin t + 4(sin t cos t) cos tdt ( 4 sin 2 t 4 cos 2 t)dt = 8π
Example Let F(x, y, z) = f (x, y, z)k, where f (x, y, z) is a differentiable function defined in R 3 Then the outward flux curlf n d of curlf across the upper hemisphere = { (x, y, z) x 2 + y 2 + z 2 = 1, z } is A B f (,, ) C grad f (,, ) None of the above olution Let C be the unit circle x 2 + y 2 = 1 in the usual counterclockwise direction, one can apply tokes theorem to obtain the following curlf n d = F T ds = ds = C C
