Key Concepts

Surface Area Element

The differential surface area element, dS, is a measure of the infinitesimal area on a surface and is obtained from the magnitude of the cross product of the partial derivatives of the parametrization with respect to the chosen parameters. It accounts for the distortion and curvature of the surface relative to the parameter space.

Surface Integral

A surface integral extends the concept of a line integral to two dimensions by integrating a function over a surface. It is used to compute quantities distributed over a curved surface, such as mass, flux, or energy, and involves summing the function values multiplied by the differential surface area element across the surface.

Parametrization of Surfaces

Parametrization involves expressing the coordinates of a surface as functions of two parameters, allowing the transformation of a surface integral into a double integral over a parameter domain. This method is particularly useful for converting integrals over non-planar surfaces into a more manageable integral over a flat domain.

Integration in Polar Coordinates

Polar coordinates are an alternative coordinate system that simplifies the evaluation of double integrals, especially for regions or surfaces with circular or radial symmetry. This coordinate transformation involves replacing Cartesian coordinates with a radial component and an angular component, while appropriately including the Jacobian determinant to account for the change of variables.

00:02 Okay, so in this video we're asked to determine the surface integral of z squared ds.

00:08 And we're given that our surface is a cone given by z squared is equal to x square plus y squared, and our z ranges from negative 4 to 1.

00:18 So the first thing we're going to do is we're going to take the square root of both sides, but we're only going to focus on the positive.

00:24 So we're not going to look at the negative square root of x square plus y square.

00:27 And we'll explain the reason for that later.

00:32 So we have z is equal to square root of x square plus y square.

00:37 And now simply like we do, like we always do, we're going to determine the normal.

00:41 So the normal is just f sub y, sorry, f sub x comma f sub y, comma, f sub y, comma negative 1.

00:47 So we're going to take the derivative of the square root of x square plus y squared and take the derivative with respect to x.

00:54 So what we do is we take the derivative of what's on the inside, and we're going to multiply that by 1 divided by 2 times the square root.

01:02 So the derivative of x squared plus y squared with respect to x is just 2x.

01:07 And then you're going to divide that by 2 times the square root of x squared plus y square.

01:12 Now the set now for the for the j component of the normal, again, we're going to take the derivative what's on the inside.

01:19 But this time with respect to y, and then we're going to divide that by 2 times the square root.

01:25 So the derivative of x square plus y squared with respect to y is just 2 y divided by 2 times the square root of x square plus y squared.

01:34 And then what we notice is we can simplify some stuff.

01:38 So the 2s cancel.

01:41 And our normal is simply this right over here, which is this, which is x divided by the square root of x square plus y square.

01:49 That's the i component of the normal.

01:51 Y divided by the square root of x square plus y square.

01:54 That's the j component and negative 1 that's the k component now we determine the magnitude of this so we're going to take each component and then square it and then take the square root of all these terms so we're going to square them so we get x squared divided by x squared plus y squared plus y squared plus y squared plus one what we notice is these two have a common denominator so what we get is x square plus y squared divided by x square plus y squared so this is just one so we have the square root of 1 plus 1 or just the square root of 2.

02:30 So that's the magnitude of the normal.

02:32 All right, remember, our figure, our surface looks something like this.

02:38 We have a cone, two cones, and it is enough to find the integral over this surface.

02:50 So to find the surface integral for only the upper portion, because it's enough just to find the surface integral for the upper portion...
