6.2 Extended Versions of Green’s Theorem
Green’s Theorem can be extended to apply to regions with holes, that is, regions that are not simply-connected.
Theorem: Green’s Theorem
Let be a region with finitely many holes (so that has finitely many boundary curves), and denote the boundary of by . is positive oriented. Let be a vector field with component functions that have continuous partial derivatives on . Then,
Example 1: Evaluate where and is the boundary of the region between the circle and with positive orientation.
Exercise 1: Evaluate where and is the boundary of the region between the circle and with positive orientation.
Example 2: Evaluate , where includes the two circles of radius and radius centered at the origin, both with positive orientation.
Exercise 2: Evaluate , where includes the two circles of radius and radius centered at the origin, both with positive orientation.
Example 3: Evaluate where is positively oriented along the ellipse .
Exercise 3: Evaluate where is positively oriented along along the ellipse .
Example 4: Find the area between ellipse and circle .
Exercise 4: Find the area between ellipse and circle .
Example 5: Find area using planimeter and .
Planimeter for map measure.
Group work:
1. Find the area of the region bounded by hypocycloid . The curve is parameterized by .
2. Find the counterclockwise circulation of field around and over the boundary of the region enclosed by curves and in the first quadrant and oriented in the counterclockwise direction.
3. Find the work done by on a particle that moves along triangle with vertices and oriented counterclockwise.
4. Evaluate the line integral where is the boundary of the region between circles and , and is a positively oriented curve.
