Surface Integrals

Find the parametric representations of a cylinder, a cone, and a sphere.

Parametric Surfaces

A surface integral is similar to a line integral, except the integration is done over a surface rather than a path. In this sense, surface integrals expand on our study of line integrals. Just as with line integrals, there are two kinds of surface integrals: a surface integral of a scalar-valued function and a surface integral of a vector field.

However, before we can integrate over a surface, we need to consider the surface itself. Recall that to calculate a scalar or vector line integral over curve C, we first need to parameterize C. In a similar way, to calculate a surface integral over surface S, we need to parameterize S. That is, we need a working concept of a parameterized surface (or a parametric surface), in the same way that we already have a concept of a parameterized curve.

A parameterized surface is given by a description of the form

\[\text{r}(u,v)=〈x(u,v),y(u,v),z(u,v)〉.\]

Notice that this parameterization involves two parameters, u and v, because a surface is two-dimensional, and therefore two variables are needed to trace out the surface. The parameters u and v vary over a region called the parameter domain, or parameter space—the set of points in the uv-plane that can be substituted into r. Each choice of u and v in the parameter domain gives a point on the surface, just as each choice of a parameter t gives a point on a parameterized curve. The entire surface is created by making all possible choices of u and v over the parameter domain.

It follows from that we can parameterize all cylinders of the form \({x}^{2}+{y}^{2}={R}^{2}.\) If S is a cylinder given by equation \({x}^{2}+{y}^{2}={R}^{2},\) then a parameterization of S is

\[\text{r}(u,v)=〈R\ \text{cos}\ u,R\ \text{sin}\ u,v〉,0\le u<2\pi ,\text{-}\infty We can also find different types of surfaces given their parameterization, or we can find a parameterization when we are given a surface.

Surface Area of a Parametric Surface

Our goal is to define a surface integral, and as a first step we have examined how to parameterize a surface. The second step is to define the surface area of a parametric surface. The notation needed to develop this definition is used throughout the rest of this chapter.

Let S be a surface with parameterization \(\text{r}(u,v)=〈x(u,v),y(u,v),z(u,v)〉\) over some parameter domain D. We assume here and throughout that the surface parameterization \(\text{r}(u,v)=〈x(u,v),y(u,v),z(u,v)〉\) is continuously differentiable—meaning, each component function has continuous partial derivatives. Assume for the sake of simplicity that D is a rectangle (although the following material can be extended to handle nonrectangular parameter domains). Divide rectangle D into subrectangles \({D}_{ij}\) with horizontal width \(\text{\Delta }u\) and vertical length \(\text{\Delta }v.\) Suppose that i ranges from 1 to m and j ranges from 1 to n so that D is subdivided into mn rectangles. This division of D into subrectangles gives a corresponding division of surface S into pieces \({S}_{ij}.\) Choose point \({P}_{ij}\) in each piece \({S}_{ij}.\) Point \({P}_{ij}\) corresponds to point \(({u}_{i},{v}_{j})\) in the parameter domain.

Note that we can form a grid with lines that are parallel to the u-axis and the v-axis in the uv-plane. These grid lines correspond to a set of grid curves on surface S that is parameterized by \(\text{r}(u,v).\) Without loss of generality, we assume that \({P}_{ij}\) is located at the corner of two grid curves, as in . If we think of r as a mapping from the uv-plane to \({ℝ}^{3},\) the grid curves are the image of the grid lines under r. To be precise, consider the grid lines that go through point \(({u}_{i},{v}_{j}).\) One line is given by \(x={u}_{i},y=v;\) the other is given by \(x=u,y={v}_{j}.\) In the first grid line, the horizontal component is held constant, yielding a vertical line through \(({u}_{i},{v}_{j}).\) In the second grid line, the vertical component is held constant, yielding a horizontal line through \(({u}_{i},{v}_{j}).\) The corresponding grid curves are \(\text{r}({u}_{i},v)\) and \(\text{r}(u,{v}_{j}),\) and these curves intersect at point \({P}_{ij}.\)

Now consider the vectors that are tangent to these grid curves. For grid curve \(\text{r}({u}_{i},v),\) the tangent vector at \({P}_{ij}\) is

\[{\text{t}}_{v}({P}_{ij})={\text{r}}_{v}({u}_{i},{v}_{j})=〈{x}_{v}({u}_{i},{v}_{j}),{y}_{v}({u}_{i},{v}_{j}),{z}_{v}({u}_{i},{v}_{j})〉.\]

For grid curve \(\text{r}(u,{v}_{j}),\) the tangent vector at \({P}_{ij}\) is

\[\text{r}(x,\theta )=〈x,f(x)\text{cos}\ \theta ,f(x)\text{sin}\ \theta 〉,a\le x\le b,0\le \theta <2\pi .\]

Surface Integral of a Scalar-Valued Function

Now that we can parameterize surfaces and we can calculate their surface areas, we are able to define surface integrals. First, let’s look at the surface integral of a scalar-valued function. Informally, the surface integral of a scalar-valued function is an analog of a scalar line integral in one higher dimension. The domain of integration of a scalar line integral is a parameterized curve (a one-dimensional object); the domain of integration of a scalar surface integral is a parameterized surface (a two-dimensional object). Therefore, the definition of a surface integral follows the definition of a line integral quite closely. For scalar line integrals, we chopped the domain curve into tiny pieces, chose a point in each piece, computed the function at that point, and took a limit of the corresponding Riemann sum. For scalar surface integrals, we chop the domain region (no longer a curve) into tiny pieces and proceed in the same fashion.

Let S be a piecewise smooth surface with parameterization \(\text{r}(u,v)=〈x(u,v),y(u,v),z(u,v)〉\) with parameter domain D and let \(f(x,y,z)\) be a function with a domain that contains S. For now, assume the parameter domain D is a rectangle, but we can extend the basic logic of how we proceed to any parameter domain (the choice of a rectangle is simply to make the notation more manageable). Divide rectangle D into subrectangles \({D}_{ij}\) with horizontal width \(\text{\Delta }u\) and vertical length \(\text{\Delta }v.\) Suppose that i ranges from 1 to m and j ranges from 1 to n so that D is subdivided into mn rectangles. This division of D into subrectangles gives a corresponding division of S into pieces \({S}_{ij}.\) Choose point \({P}_{ij}\) in each piece \({S}_{ij},\) evaluate \({P}_{ij}\) at \(f\), and multiply by area \(\text{\Delta }{S}_{ij}\) to form the Riemann sum

\[\sum _{i=1}^{m}\sum _{j=1}^{n}f({P}_{ij})\text{\Delta }{S}_{ij}.\]

To define a surface integral of a scalar-valued function, we let the areas of the pieces of S shrink to zero by taking a limit.

The definition of a scalar line integral can be extended to parameter domains that are not rectangles by using the same logic used earlier. The basic idea is to chop the parameter domain into small pieces, choose a sample point in each piece, and so on. The exact shape of each piece in the sample domain becomes irrelevant as the areas of the pieces shrink to zero.

Orientation of a Surface

Recall that when we defined a scalar line integral, we did not need to worry about an orientation of the curve of integration. The same was true for scalar surface integrals: we did not need to worry about an “orientation” of the surface of integration.

On the other hand, when we defined vector line integrals, the curve of integration needed an orientation. That is, we needed the notion of an oriented curve to define a vector line integral without ambiguity. Similarly, when we define a surface integral of a vector field, we need the notion of an oriented surface. An oriented surface is given an “upward” or “downward” orientation or, in the case of surfaces such as a sphere or cylinder, an “outward” or “inward” orientation.

Let S be a smooth surface. For any point \((x,y,z)\) on S, we can identify two unit normal vectors \(\text{N}\) and \(\text{-}\text{N}.\) If it is possible to choose a unit normal vector N at every point \((x,y,z)\) on S so that N varies continuously over S, then S is “orientable.” Such a choice of unit normal vector at each point gives the orientation of a surface S. If you think of the normal field as describing water flow, then the side of the surface that water flows toward is the “negative” side and the side of the surface at which the water flows away is the “positive” side. Informally, a choice of orientation gives S an “outer” side and an “inner” side (or an “upward” side and a “downward” side), just as a choice of orientation of a curve gives the curve “forward” and “backward” directions.

Closed surfaces such as spheres are orientable: if we choose the outward normal vector at each point on the surface of the sphere, then the unit normal vectors vary continuously. This is called the positive orientation of the closed surface (). We also could choose the inward normal vector at each point to give an “inward” orientation, which is the negative orientation of the surface.

Let S be a smooth orientable surface with parameterization \(\text{r}(u,v).\) For each point \(\text{r}(a,b)\) on the surface, vectors \({\text{t}}_{u}\) and \({\text{t}}_{v}\) lie in the tangent plane at that point. Vector \({\text{t}}_{u}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{v}\) is normal to the tangent plane at \(\text{r}(a,b)\) and is therefore normal to S at that point. Therefore, the choice of unit normal vector

\[\text{N}=\frac{{\text{t}}_{u}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{v}}{‖{\text{t}}_{u}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{v}‖}\]

gives an orientation of surface S.

Surface Integral of a Vector Field

With the idea of orientable surfaces in place, we are now ready to define a surface integral of a vector field. The definition is analogous to the definition of the flux of a vector field along a plane curve. Recall that if F is a two-dimensional vector field and C is a plane curve, then the definition of the flux of F along C involved chopping C into small pieces, choosing a point inside each piece, and calculating \(\text{F}\cdot \text{N}\) at the point (where N is the unit normal vector at the point). The definition of a surface integral of a vector field proceeds in the same fashion, except now we chop surface S into small pieces, choose a point in the small (two-dimensional) piece, and calculate \(\text{F}\cdot \text{N}\) at the point.

To place this definition in a real-world setting, let S be an oriented surface with unit normal vector N. Let v be a velocity field of a fluid flowing through S, and suppose the fluid has density \(\rho (x,y,z).\) Imagine the fluid flows through S, but S is completely permeable so that it does not impede the fluid flow (). The mass flux of the fluid is the rate of mass flow per unit area. The mass flux is measured in mass per unit time per unit area. How could we calculate the mass flux of the fluid across S?

\[{∬}_{s}\rho \text{v}\cdot \text{N}dS=\underset{m,n\to \infty }{\text{lim}}\sum _{i=1}^{m}\sum _{j=1}^{n}(\rho \text{v}\cdot \text{N})\text{\Delta }{\text{S}}_{ij}.\]

This is a surface integral of a vector field. Letting the vector field \(\rho \text{v}\) be an arbitrary vector field F leads to the following definition.

Notice the parallel between this definition and the definition of vector line integral \({\int }_{C}\text{F}\cdot \text{N}ds.\) A surface integral of a vector field is defined in a similar way to a flux line integral across a curve, except the domain of integration is a surface (a two-dimensional object) rather than a curve (a one-dimensional object). Integral \({∬}_{S}\text{F}\cdot \text{N}dS\) is called the flux of F across S, just as integral \({\int }_{C}\text{F}\cdot \text{N}ds\) is the flux of F across curve C. A surface integral over a vector field is also called a flux integral.

Therefore, to compute a surface integral over a vector field we can use the equation

\[{∬}_{S}\text{F}\cdot \text{N}dS={∬}_{D}(\text{F}(\text{r}(u,v))\cdot ({\text{t}}_{u}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{v}))dA.\]

Key Concepts

  • Surfaces can be parameterized, just as curves can be parameterized. In general, surfaces must be parameterized with two parameters.
  • Surfaces can sometimes be oriented, just as curves can be oriented. Some surfaces, such as a Möbius strip, cannot be oriented.
  • A surface integral is like a line integral in one higher dimension. The domain of integration of a surface integral is a surface in a plane or space, rather than a curve in a plane or space.
  • The integrand of a surface integral can be a scalar function or a vector field. To calculate a surface integral with an integrand that is a function, use . To calculate a surface integral with an integrand that is a vector field, use .
  • If S is a surface, then the area of S is \(\int {\int }_{S}dS.\)

Try each one on paper first. Reveal the answer to check; verified ones can be opened in the solver for every step.

  1. Describe surface S parameterized by

    \[\text{r}(u,v)=〈\text{cos}\ u,\text{sin}\ u,v〉,\text{-}\infty
    Avslöja svaret

    To get an idea of the shape of the surface, we first plot some points. Since the parameter domain is all of \({ℝ}^{2},\) we can choose any value for u and v and plot the corresponding point. If \(u=v=0,\) then \(\text{r}(0,0)=〈1,0,0〉,\) so point (1, 0, 0) is on S. Similarly, points \(\text{r}(\pi ,2)=(-1,0,2)\) and \(\text{r}(\frac{\pi }{2},4)=(0,1,4)\) are on S.

    Although plotting points may give us an idea of the shape of the surface, we usually need quite a few points to see the shape. Since it is time-consuming to plot dozens or hundreds of points, we use another strategy. To visualize S, we visualize two families of curves that lie on S. In the first family of curves we hold u constant; in the second family of curves we hold v constant. This allows us to build a “skeleton” of the surface, thereby getting an idea of its shape.

    First, suppose that u is a constant K. Then the curve traced out by the parameterization is \(〈\text{cos}\ K,\text{sin}\ K,v〉,\) which gives a vertical line that goes through point \((\text{cos}\ K,\text{sin}\ K,v)\) in the xy-plane.

    Now suppose that v is a constant K. Then the curve traced out by the parameterization is \(〈\text{cos}\ u,\text{sin}\ u,K〉,\) which gives a circle in plane \(z=K\) with radius 1 and center (0, 0, K).

    If u is held constant, then we get vertical lines; if v is held constant, then we get circles of radius 1 centered around the vertical line that goes through the origin. Therefore the surface traced out by the parameterization is cylinder \({x}^{2}+{y}^{2}=1\) ().

    Notice that if \(x=\text{cos}\ u\) and \(y=\text{sin}\ u,\) then \({x}^{2}+{y}^{2}=1,\) so points from S do indeed lie on the cylinder. Conversely, each point on the cylinder is contained in some circle \(〈\text{cos}\ u,\text{sin}\ u,k〉\) for some k, and therefore each point on the cylinder is contained in the parameterized surface ().

  2. Describe the surface with parameterization \(\text{r}(u,v)=〈2\ \text{cos}\ u,2\ \text{sin}\ u,v〉,0\le u<2\pi ,\text{-}\infty

    Avslöja svaret

    Cylinder \({x}^{2}+{y}^{2}=4\)

  3. Describe surface S parameterized by

    \[\text{r}(u,v)=〈u\ \text{cos}\ v,u\ \text{sin}\ v,{u}^{2}〉,0\le u<\infty ,0\le v<2\pi .\]
    Avslöja svaret

    Notice that if u is held constant, then the resulting curve is a circle of radius u in plane \(z={u}^{2}.\) Therefore, as u increases, the radius of the resulting circle increases. If v is held constant, then the resulting curve is a vertical parabola. Therefore, we expect the surface to be an elliptic paraboloid. To confirm this, notice that

    \[\begin{array}{ll}{x}^{2}+{y}^{2} & ={(u\ \text{cos}\ v)}^{2}+{(u\ \text{sin}\ v)}^{2} \\ & ={u}^{2}{\text{cos}}^{2}v+{u}^{2}{\text{sin}}^{2}v \\ & ={u}^{2} \\ & =z.\end{array}\]

    Therefore, the surface is elliptic paraboloid \({x}^{2}+{y}^{2}=z\) ().

  4. Describe the surface parameterized by \(\text{r}(u,v)=〈u\ \text{cos}\ v,u\ \text{sin}\ v,u〉,\text{-}\infty

    Avslöja svaret

    Cone \({x}^{2}+{y}^{2}={z}^{2}\)

  5. Give a parameterization of the cone \({x}^{2}+{y}^{2}={z}^{2}\) lying on or above the plane \(z=-2.\)

    Avslöja svaret

    The horizontal cross-section of the cone at height \(z=u\) is circle \({x}^{2}+{y}^{2}={u}^{2}.\) Therefore, a point on the cone at height u has coordinates \((u\ \text{cos}\ v,u\ \text{sin}\ v,u)\) for angle v. Hence, a parameterization of the cone is \(\text{r}(u,v)=〈u\ \text{cos}\ v,u\ \text{sin}\ v,u〉.\) Since we are not interested in the entire cone, only the portion on or above plane \(z=-2,\) the parameter domain is given by \(-2\le u<\infty ,0\le v<2\pi\) ().

  6. Give a parameterization for the portion of cone \({x}^{2}+{y}^{2}={z}^{2}\) lying in the first octant.

  7. Which of the figures in is smooth?

    Avslöja svaret

    The surface in (a) can be parameterized by

    \[\text{r}(u,v)=〈(2+\text{cos}\ v)\text{cos}\ u,(2+\text{cos}\ v)\text{sin}\ u,\text{sin}\ v〉,0\le u<2\pi ,0\le v<2\pi\]

    (we can use technology to verify). Notice that vectors

    \[{\text{r}}_{u}=〈\text{-}(2+\text{cos}\ v)\text{sin}\ u,(2+\text{cos}\ v)\text{cos}\ u,0〉\ \text{and}\ {\text{r}}_{v}=〈\text{-}\text{sin}\ v\ \text{cos}\ u,\text{-}\text{sin}\ v\ \text{sin}\ u,\text{cos}\ v〉\]

    exist for any choice of u and v in the parameter domain, and

    \[\begin{array}{llllllll}{\text{r}}_{u}\ \times \ {\text{r}}_{v} & =|\begin{array}{lll}\text{i} & \text{j} & \text{k} \\ \text{-}(2+\text{cos}\ v)\text{sin}\ u & (2+\text{cos}\ v)\text{cos}\ u & 0 \\ \text{-}\text{sin}\ v\ \text{cos}\ u & \text{-}\text{sin}\ v\ \text{sin}\ u & \text{cos}\ v\end{array}| \\ & =[(2+\text{cos}\ v)\text{cos}\ u\ \text{cos}\ v]\text{i}+[(2+\text{cos}\ v)\text{sin}\ u\ \text{cos}\ v]\text{j} \\ & \ +[(2+\text{cos}\ v)\text{sin}\ v\ {\text{sin}}^{2}u+(2+\text{cos}\ v)\text{sin}\ v\ {\text{cos}}^{2}u]\text{k} \\ & =[(2+\text{cos}\ v)\text{cos}\ u\ \text{cos}\ v]\text{i}+[(2+\text{cos}\ v)\text{sin}\ u\ \text{cos}\ v]\text{j}+[(2+\text{cos}\ v)\text{sin}\ v]\text{k}.\end{array}\]

    The k component of this vector is zero only if \(v=0\) or \(v=\pi .\) If \(v=0\) or \(v=\pi ,\) then the only choices for u that make the j component zero are \(u=0\) or \(u=\pi .\) But, these choices of u do not make the i component zero. Therefore, \({\text{r}}_{u}\ \times \ {\text{r}}_{v}\) is not zero for any choice of u and v in the parameter domain, and the parameterization is smooth. Notice that the corresponding surface has no sharp corners.

    In the pyramid in (b), the sharpness of the corners ensures that directional derivatives do not exist at those locations. Therefore, the pyramid has no smooth parameterization. However, the pyramid consists of five smooth faces, and thus this surface is piecewise smooth.

  8. Is the surface parameterization \(\text{r}(u,v)=〈{u}^{2v},v+1,\text{sin}\ u〉,0\le u\le 2,0\le v\le 3\) smooth?

    Avslöja svaret

    Yes

  9. Calculate the lateral surface area (the area of the “side,” not including the base) of the right circular cone with height h and radius r.

    Avslöja svaret

    Before calculating the surface area of this cone using , we need a parameterization. We assume this cone is in \({ℝ}^{3}\) with its vertex at the origin (). To obtain a parameterization, let \(\alpha\) be the angle that is swept out by starting at the positive z-axis and ending at the cone, and let \(k=\text{tan}\ \alpha .\) For a height value v with \(0\le v\le h,\) the radius of the circle formed by intersecting the cone with plane \(z=v\) is \(kv.\) Therefore, a parameterization of this cone is

    \[\text{s}(u,v)=〈kv\ \text{cos}\ u,kv\ \text{sin}\ u,v〉,0\le u<2\pi ,0\le v\le h.\]

    The idea behind this parameterization is that for a fixed v value, the circle swept out by letting u vary is the circle at height v and radius kv. As v increases, the parameterization sweeps out a “stack” of circles, resulting in the desired cone.

    With a parameterization in hand, we can calculate the surface area of the cone using . The tangent vectors are \({\text{t}}_{u}=〈\text{-}kv\ \text{sin}\ u,kv\ \text{cos}\ u,0〉\) and \({\text{t}}_{v}=〈k\ \text{cos}\ u,k\ \text{sin}\ u,1〉.\) Therefore,

    \[\begin{array}{llllllll}{\text{t}}_{u}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{v} & =|\begin{array}{lll}\text{i} & \text{j} & \text{k} \\ \text{-}kv\ \text{sin}\ u & kv\ \text{cos}\ u & 0 \\ k\ \text{cos}\ u & k\ \text{sin}\ u & 1\end{array}| \\ & =〈kv\ \text{cos}\ u,kv\ \text{sin}\ u,\text{-}{k}^{2}v\ {\text{sin}}^{2}u-{k}^{2}v\ {\text{cos}}^{2}u〉 \\ & =〈kv\ \text{cos}\ u,kv\ \text{sin}\ u,\text{-}{k}^{2}v〉.\end{array}\]

    The magnitude of this vector is

    \[\begin{array}{ll}‖〈kv\ \text{cos}\ u,kv\ \text{sin}\ u,\text{-}{k}^{2}v〉‖ & =\sqrt{{k}^{2}{v}^{2}{\text{cos}}^{2}u+{k}^{2}{v}^{2}{\text{sin}}^{2}u+{k}^{4}{v}^{2}} \\ & =\sqrt{{k}^{2}{v}^{2}+{k}^{4}{v}^{2}} \\ & =kv\sqrt{1+{k}^{2}}.\end{array}\]

    By , the surface area of the cone is

    \[\begin{array}{ll}{∬}_{D}‖{\text{t}}_{u}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{v}‖dA & ={\int }_{0}^{h}{\int }_{0}^{2\pi }kv\sqrt{1+{k}^{2}}dudv \\ & =2\pi k\sqrt{1+{k}^{2}}{\int }_{0}^{h}vdv \\ & =2\pi k\sqrt{1+{k}^{2}}{[\frac{{v}^{2}}{2}]}_{0}^{h} \\ & =\pi k{h}^{2}\sqrt{1+{k}^{2}}.\end{array}\]

    Since \(k=\text{tan}\ \alpha =r\text{/}h,\)

    \[\begin{array}{ll}\pi k{h}^{2}\sqrt{1+{k}^{2}} & =\pi \frac{r}{h}{h}^{2}\sqrt{1+\frac{{r}^{2}}{{h}^{2}}} \\ & =\pi rh\sqrt{1+\frac{{r}^{2}}{{h}^{2}}} \\ & =\pi r\sqrt{{h}^{2}+{h}^{2}(\frac{{r}^{2}}{{h}^{2}})} \\ & =\pi r\sqrt{{h}^{2}+{r}^{2}}.\end{array}\]

    Therefore, the lateral surface area of the cone is \(\pi r\sqrt{{h}^{2}+{r}^{2}}.\)

  10. Find the surface area of the surface with parameterization \(\text{r}(u,v)=〈u+v,{u}^{2},2v〉,0\le u\le 3,0\le v\le 2.\)

  11. Show that the surface area of the sphere \({x}^{2}+{y}^{2}+{z}^{2}={r}^{2}\) is \(4\pi {r}^{2}.\)

    Avslöja svaret

    The sphere has parameterization

    \[〈r\ \text{cos}\ \theta \ \text{sin}\ ϕ,r\ \text{sin}\ \theta \ \text{sin}\ ϕ,r\ \text{cos}\ ϕ〉,0\le \theta <2\pi ,0\le ϕ\le \pi .\]

    The tangent vectors are

    \[{\text{t}}_{\theta }=〈\text{-}r\ \text{sin}\ \theta \ \text{sin}\ ϕ,r\ \text{cos}\ \theta \ \text{sin}\ ϕ,0〉\ \text{and}\ {\text{t}}_{ϕ}=〈r\ \text{cos}\ \theta \ \text{cos}\ ϕ,r\ \text{sin}\ \theta \ \text{cos}\ ϕ,\text{-}r\ \text{sin}\ ϕ〉.\]

    Therefore,

    \[\begin{array}{ll}{\text{t}}_{ϕ}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{\theta } & =〈{r}^{2}\text{cos}\ \theta \ {\text{sin}}^{2}ϕ,{r}^{2}\text{sin}\ \theta \ {\text{sin}}^{2}ϕ,{r}^{2}{\text{sin}}^{2}\theta \ \text{sin}\ ϕ\ \text{cos}\ ϕ+{r}^{2}{\text{cos}}^{2}\theta \ \text{sin}\ ϕ\ \text{cos}\ ϕ〉 \\ & =〈{r}^{2}\text{cos}\ \theta \ {\text{sin}}^{2}ϕ,{r}^{2}\text{sin}\ \theta \ {\text{sin}}^{2}ϕ,{r}^{2}\text{sin}\ ϕ\ \text{cos}\ ϕ〉.\end{array}\]

    Now,

    \[\begin{array}{ll}‖{\text{t}}_{ϕ}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{\theta }‖ & =\sqrt{{r}^{4}{\text{sin}}^{4}ϕ\ {\text{cos}}^{2}\theta +{r}^{4}{\text{sin}}^{4}ϕ\ {\text{sin}}^{2}\theta +{r}^{4}{\text{sin}}^{2}ϕ\ {\text{cos}}^{2}ϕ} \\ & =\sqrt{{r}^{4}{\text{sin}}^{4}ϕ+{r}^{4}{\text{sin}}^{2}ϕ\ {\text{cos}}^{2}ϕ} \\ & ={r}^{2}\sqrt{{\text{sin}}^{2}ϕ} \\ & ={r}^{2}\ \text{sin}\ ϕ.\end{array}\]

    Notice that \(\text{sin}\ ϕ\ge 0\) on the parameter domain because \(0\le ϕ<\pi ,\) and this justifies equation \(\sqrt{{\text{sin}}^{2}ϕ}=\text{sin}\ ϕ.\) The surface area of the sphere is

    Notice that this parameter domain D is a triangle, and therefore the parameter domain is not rectangular. This is not an issue though, because does not place any restrictions on the shape of the parameter domain.

    To use to calculate the surface integral, we first find vector \({\text{t}}_{u}\) and \({\text{t}}_{v}.\) Note that \({\text{t}}_{u}=〈1,2u,0〉\) and \({\text{t}}_{v}=〈0,0,1〉.\) Therefore,

    \[{\text{t}}_{u}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{v}=|\begin{array}{lll}\text{i} & \text{j} & \text{k} \\ 1 & 2u & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1\end{array}|=〈2u,-1,0〉\]

    To calculate the surface integral, we first need a parameterization of the cylinder. Following , a parameterization is

    \[\text{r}(u,v)=〈2\text{cos}\ u,2\text{sin}\ u,v〉,0\le u\le 2\pi ,0\le v\le 3.\]

    The tangent vectors are \({\text{t}}_{u}=〈-2\text{sin}\ u,2\text{cos}\ u,0〉\) and \({\text{t}}_{v}=〈0,0,1〉.\) Then,

  18. Calculate surface integral \({∬}_{S}f(x,y,z)dS,\) where \(f(x,y,z)={z}^{2}\) and S is the surface that consists of the piece of sphere \({x}^{2}+{y}^{2}+{z}^{2}=4\) that lies on or above plane \(z=1\) and the disk that is enclosed by intersection plane \(z=1\) and the given sphere ().

    Avslöja svaret

    Notice that S is not smooth but is piecewise smooth; S can be written as the union of its base \({S}_{1}\) and its spherical top \({S}_{2},\) and both \({S}_{1}\) and \({S}_{2}\) are smooth. Therefore, to calculate \({∬}_{S}{z}^{2}dS,\) we write this integral as \({∬}_{{S}_{1}}{z}^{2}dS+{∬}_{{S}_{2}}{z}^{2}dS\) and we calculate integrals \({∬}_{{S}_{1}}{z}^{2}dS\) and \({∬}_{{S}_{2}}{z}^{2}dS.\)

    First, we calculate \({∬}_{{S}_{1}}{z}^{2}dS.\) To calculate this integral we need a parameterization of \({S}_{1}.\) This surface is a disk in plane \(z=1\) centered at \((0,0,1).\) To parameterize this disk, we need to know its radius. Since the disk is formed where plane \(z=1\) intersects sphere \({x}^{2}+{y}^{2}+{z}^{2}=4,\) we can substitute \(z=1\) into equation \({x}^{2}+{y}^{2}+{z}^{2}=4\text{:}\)

    \[{x}^{2}+{y}^{2}+1=4⇒{x}^{2}+{y}^{2}=3.\]

    Therefore, the radius of the disk is \(\sqrt{3}\) and a parameterization of \({S}_{1}\) is \(\text{r}(u,v)=〈u\ \text{cos}\ v,u\ \text{sin}\ v,1〉,0\le u\le \sqrt{3},0\le v\le 2\pi .\) The tangent vectors are \({\text{t}}_{u}=〈\text{cos}\ v,\text{sin}\ v,0〉\) and \({\text{t}}_{v}=〈\text{-}u\ \text{sin}\ v,u\text{co}sv,0〉,\) and thus

    \[{\text{t}}_{u}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{v}=|\begin{array}{lll}\text{i} & \text{j} & \text{k} \\ \text{cos}\ v & \text{sin}\ v & 0 \\ \text{-}u\ \text{sin}\ v & u\ \text{cos}\ v & 0\end{array}|=〈0,0,u\ {\text{cos}}^{2}v+u\ {\text{sin}}^{2}v〉=〈0,0,u〉.\]

    The magnitude of this vector is u. Therefore,

    \[\begin{array}{ll}{∬}_{{S}_{1}}{z}^{2}dS & ={\int }_{0}^{\sqrt{3}}{\int }_{0}^{2\pi }f(\text{r}(u,v))‖{\text{t}}_{u}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{v}‖\ dv\ du \\ & ={\int }_{0}^{\sqrt{3}}{\int }_{0}^{2\pi }u\ dv\ du \\ & =2\pi {\int }_{0}^{\sqrt{3}}udu \\ & =3\pi .\end{array}\]

    Now we calculate \({∬}_{{S}_{2}}dS.\) To calculate this integral, we need a parameterization of \({S}_{2}.\) The parameterization of full sphere \({x}^{2}+{y}^{2}+{z}^{2}=4\) is

    \[\text{r}(ϕ,\theta )=〈2\ \text{cos}\ \theta \ \text{sin}\ ϕ,2\ \text{sin}\ \theta \ \text{sin}\ ϕ,2\ \text{cos}\ ϕ〉,0\le \theta \le 2\pi ,0\le ϕ\le \pi .\]

    Since we are only taking the piece of the sphere on or above plane \(z=1,\) we have to restrict the domain of \(ϕ.\) To see how far this angle sweeps, notice that the angle can be located in a right triangle, as shown in (the \(\sqrt{3}\) comes from the fact that the base of S is a disk with radius \(\sqrt{3}).\) Therefore, the tangent of \(ϕ\) is \(\sqrt{3},\) which implies that \(ϕ\) is \(\pi \text{/}3.\) We now have a parameterization of \({S}_{2}\text{:}\)

    \[\text{r}(ϕ,\theta )=〈2\ \text{cos}\ \theta \ \text{sin}\ ϕ,2\ \text{sin}\ \theta \ \text{sin}\ ϕ,2\ \text{cos}\ ϕ〉,0\le \theta \le 2\pi ,0\le ϕ\le \pi \text{/}3.\]

    The tangent vectors are

    \[{\text{t}}_{ϕ}=〈2\ \text{cos}\ \theta \ \text{cos}\ ϕ,2\ \text{sin}\ \theta \ \text{cos}\ ϕ,-2\ \text{sin}\ ϕ〉\ \text{and}\ {\text{t}}_{\theta }=〈-2\ \text{sin}\ \theta \ \text{sin}\ ϕ,u\ \text{cos}\ \theta \ \text{sin}\ ϕ,0〉,\]

    and thus

    \[\begin{array}{llllllll}{\text{t}}_{ϕ}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{\theta } & =|\begin{array}{lll}\text{i} & \text{j} & \text{k} \\ 2\ \text{cos}\ \theta \ \text{cos}\ ϕ & 2\ \text{sin}\ \theta \ \text{cos}\ ϕ & -2\ \text{sin}\ ϕ \\ -2\ \text{sin}\ \theta \ \text{sin}\ ϕ & 2\ \text{cos}\ \theta \ \text{sin}\ ϕ & 0\end{array}| \\ & =〈4\ \text{cos}\ \theta \ {\text{sin}}^{2}ϕ,4\ \text{sin}\ \theta \ {\text{sin}}^{2}ϕ,4\ {\text{cos}}^{2}\theta \ \text{cos}\ ϕ\ \text{sin}\ ϕ+4\ {\text{sin}}^{2}\theta \ \text{cos}\ ϕ\ \text{sin}\ ϕ〉 \\ & =〈4\ \text{cos}\ \theta \ {\text{sin}}^{2}ϕ,4\ \text{sin}\ \theta \ {\text{sin}}^{2}ϕ,4\ \text{cos}\ ϕ\ \text{sin}\ ϕ〉.\end{array}\]

    The magnitude of this vector is

    \[\begin{array}{ll}‖{\text{t}}_{ϕ}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{\theta }‖ & =\sqrt{16\ {\text{cos}}^{2}\theta \ {\text{sin}}^{4}ϕ+16\ {\text{sin}}^{2}\theta \ {\text{sin}}^{4}ϕ+16\ {\text{cos}}^{2}ϕ\ {\text{sin}}^{2}ϕ} \\ & =4\sqrt{{\text{sin}}^{4}ϕ+{\text{cos}}^{2}ϕ\ {\text{sin}}^{2}ϕ}.\end{array}\]

    Therefore,

    \[\begin{array}{ll}{∬}_{{S}_{2}}zdS & ={\int }_{0}^{\pi \text{/3}}{\int }_{0}^{2\pi }f(\text{r}(ϕ,\theta ))‖{\text{t}}_{ϕ}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{\theta }‖\ d\theta \ dϕ \\ & ={\int }_{0}^{\pi \text{/3}}{\int }_{0}^{2\pi }16\ {\text{cos}}^{2}ϕ\sqrt{{\text{sin}}^{4}ϕ+{\text{cos}}^{2}ϕ\ {\text{sin}}^{2}ϕ}d\theta \ dϕ \\ & =32\pi {\int }_{0}^{\pi \text{/3}}{\text{cos}}^{2}ϕ\sqrt{{\text{sin}}^{4}ϕ+{\text{cos}}^{2}ϕ\ {\text{sin}}^{2}ϕ}\ dϕ \\ & =32\pi {\int }_{0}^{\pi \text{/3}}{\text{cos}}^{2}ϕ\ \text{sin}\ ϕ\sqrt{{\text{sin}}^{2}ϕ+{\text{cos}}^{2}ϕ}\ dϕ \\ & =32\pi {\int }_{0}^{\pi \text{/3}}{\text{cos}}^{2}ϕ\ \text{sin}\ ϕ\ dϕ \\ & =32\pi {[-\frac{{\text{cos}}^{3}ϕ}{3}]}_{0}^{\pi \text{/}3}=32\pi [\frac{1}{3}-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{8}]=\frac{28\pi }{3}.\end{array}\]

    Since \({∬}_{S}{z}^{2}dS={∬}_{{S}_{1}}{z}^{2}dS+{∬}_{{S}_{2}}{z}^{2}dS=3\pi +\frac{28\pi }{3}=\frac{37\pi }{3}\)

  20. A flat sheet of metal has the shape of surface \(z=1+x+2y\) that lies above rectangle \(0\le x\le 4\) and \(0\le y\le 2.\) If the density of the sheet is given by \(\rho (x,y,z)={x}^{2}yz,\) what is the mass of the sheet?

    Avslöja svaret

    Let S be the surface that describes the sheet. Then, the mass of the sheet is given by \(m={∬}_{S}{x}^{2}yzdS.\) To compute this surface integral, we first need a parameterization of S. Since S is given by the function \(f(x,y)=1+x+2y,\) a parameterization of S is \(\text{r}(x,y)=〈x,y,1+x+2y〉,0\le x\le 4,0\le y\le 2.\)

    The tangent vectors are \({\text{t}}_{x}=〈1,0,1〉\) and \({\text{t}}_{y}=〈1,0,2〉.\) Therefore, \({\text{t}}_{x}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{y}=〈-1,-2,1〉\) and \(‖{\text{t}}_{x}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{y}‖=\sqrt{6}.\) By ,

    \[\begin{array}{ll}m & ={∬}_{S}{x}^{2}y{z}^{}dS \\ & =\sqrt{6}{\int }_{0}^{4}{\int }_{0}^{2}{x}^{2}y(1+x+2y)dydx \\ & =\sqrt{6}{\int }_{0}^{4}\frac{22{x}^{2}}{3}+2{x}^{3}dx \\ & =\frac{2560\sqrt{6}}{9} \\ & \approx 696.74.\end{array}\]

    This surface has parameterization

    \[\text{r}(u,v)=〈r\ \text{cos}\ u,r\ \text{sin}\ u,v〉,0\le u<2\pi ,0\le v\le h.\]

    The tangent vectors are \({\text{t}}_{u}=〈\text{-}r\ \text{sin}\ u,r\ \text{cos}\ u,0〉\) and \({\text{t}}_{v}=〈0,0,1〉.\) To get an orientation of the surface, we compute the unit normal vector

    \[\text{N}=\frac{{\text{t}}_{u}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{v}}{‖{\text{t}}_{u}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{v}‖}.\]

    In this case, \({\text{t}}_{u}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{v}=〈r\ \text{cos}\ u,r\ \text{sin}\ u,0〉\) and therefore

    \[‖{\text{t}}_{u}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{v}‖=\sqrt{{r}^{2}{\text{cos}}^{2}u+{r}^{2}{\text{sin}}^{2}u}=r.\]

    An orientation of the cylinder is

    \[\text{N}(u,v)=\frac{〈r\ \text{cos}\ u,r\ \text{sin}\ u,0〉}{r}=〈\text{cos}\ u,\text{sin}\ u,0〉.\]

    Notice that all vectors are parallel to the xy-plane, which should be the case with vectors that are normal to the cylinder. Furthermore, all the vectors point outward, and therefore this is an outward orientation of the cylinder ().

    Avslöja svaret

    The tangent vectors are \({\text{t}}_{u}=〈1,-1,1〉\) and \({\text{t}}_{v}=〈0,2v,1〉.\) Therefore,

    \[{\text{t}}_{u}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{v}=〈-1-2v,-1,2v〉.\]

    By ,

    \[\begin{array}{ll}{∬}_{S}\text{F}\cdot d\text{S} & ={\int }_{0}^{4}{\int }_{0}^{3}\text{F}(\text{r}(u,v))\cdot ({\text{t}}_{u}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{v})dudv \\ & ={\int }_{0}^{4}{\int }_{0}^{3}〈u-{v}^{2},u,0〉\cdot 〈-1-2v,-1,2v〉\ dudv \\ & ={\int }_{0}^{4}{\int }_{0}^{3}[(u-{v}^{2})(-1-2v)-u]dudv \\ & ={\int }_{0}^{4}{\int }_{0}^{3}(2{v}^{3}+{v}^{2}-2uv-2u)dudv \\ & ={{\int }_{0}^{4}[2{v}^{3}u+{v}^{2}u-v{u}^{2}-{u}^{2}]}_{0}^{3}dv \\ & ={\int }_{0}^{4}(6{v}^{3}+3{v}^{2}-9v-9)dv \\ & ={[\frac{3{v}^{4}}{2}+{v}^{3}-\frac{9{v}^{2}}{2}-9v]}_{0}^{4} \\ & =340.\end{array}\]

    Therefore, the flux of F across S is 340.

    As in , the tangent vectors are

    Notice that each component of the cross product is positive, and therefore this vector gives the outward orientation. Therefore we use the orientation \(\text{N}=〈9\ \text{cos}\ \theta \ {\text{sin}}^{2}ϕ,9\ \text{sin}\ \theta \ {\text{sin}}^{2}ϕ,9\ \text{sin}\ ϕ\ \text{cos}\ ϕ〉\) for the sphere.

    Avslöja svaret

    Let S denote the boundary of the object. To find the heat flow, we need to calculate flux integral \({∬}_{S}\text{-}k∇T\cdot d\text{S}.\) Notice that S is not a smooth surface but is piecewise smooth, since S is the union of three smooth surfaces (the circular top and bottom, and the cylindrical side). Therefore, we calculate three separate integrals, one for each smooth piece of S. Before calculating any integrals, note that the gradient of the temperature is \(∇T=〈2xz,2yz,{x}^{2}+{y}^{2}〉.\)

    First we consider the circular bottom of the object, which we denote \({S}_{1}.\) We can see that \({S}_{1}\) is a circle of radius 1 centered at point \((0,0,1),\) sitting in plane \(z=1.\) This surface has parameterization \(\text{r}(u,v)=〈v\ \text{cos}\ u,v\ \text{sin}\ u,1〉,0\le u<2\pi ,0\le v\le 1.\) Therefore,

    \[{\text{t}}_{u}=〈\text{-}v\ \text{sin}\ u,v\ \text{cos}\ u,0〉\ \text{and}\ {\text{t}}_{v}=〈\text{cos}\ u,v\ \text{sin}\ u,0〉,\]

    and

    \[{\text{t}}_{u}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{v}=〈0,0,\text{-}v\ {\text{sin}}^{2}u-v\ {\text{cos}}^{2}u〉=〈0,0,\text{-}v〉.\]

    Since the surface is oriented outward and \({S}_{1}\) is the bottom of the object, it makes sense that this vector points downward. By , the heat flow across \({S}_{1}\) is

    \[\begin{array}{ll}{∬}_{{S}_{1}}\text{-}k∇T\cdot d\text{S} & =-55{\int }_{0}^{2\pi }{\int }_{0}^{1}∇T(u,v)\cdot ({\text{t}}_{u}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{v})dvdu \\ & =-55{\int }_{0}^{2\pi }{\int }_{0}^{1}〈2v\ \text{cos}\ u,2v\ \text{sin}\ u,{v}^{2}{\text{cos}}^{2}u+{v}^{2}{\text{sin}}^{2}u〉\cdot 〈0,0,\text{-}v〉dvdu \\ & =-55{\int }_{0}^{2\pi }{\int }_{0}^{1}〈2v\ \text{cos}\ u,2v\ \text{sin}\ u,{v}^{2}〉\cdot 〈0,0,\text{-}v〉dvdu \\ & =-55{\int }_{0}^{2\pi }{\int }_{0}^{1}\text{-}{v}^{3}dvdu=-55{\int }_{0}^{2\pi }-\frac{1}{4}du=\frac{55\pi }{2}.\end{array}\]

    Now let’s consider the circular top of the object, which we denote \({S}_{2}.\) We see that \({S}_{2}\) is a circle of radius 1 centered at point \((0,0,4),\) sitting in plane \(z=4.\) This surface has parameterization \(\text{r}(u,v)=〈v\ \text{cos}\ u,v\ \text{sin}\ u,4〉,0\le u<2\pi ,0\le v\le 1.\) Therefore,

    \[{\text{t}}_{u}=〈\text{-}v\ \text{sin}\ u,v\ \text{cos}\ u,0〉\ \text{and}\ {\text{t}}_{v}=〈\text{cos}\ u,v\ \text{sin}\ u,0〉,\]

    and

    \[{\text{t}}_{u}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{v}=〈0,0,\text{-}v\ {\text{sin}}^{2}u-v\ {\text{cos}}^{2}u〉=〈0,0,\text{-}v〉.\]

    Since the surface is oriented outward and \({S}_{1}\) is the top of the object, we instead take vector \({\text{t}}_{v}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{u}=〈0,0,v〉.\) By , the heat flow across \({S}_{1}\) is

    \[\begin{array}{ll}\int {\int }_{{S}_{2}}\text{-}k∇T\cdot d\text{S} & =-55{\int }_{0}^{2\pi }{\int }_{0}^{1}∇T(u,v)\cdot ({\text{t}}_{v}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{u})dvdu \\ & =-55{\int }_{0}^{2\pi }{\int }_{0}^{1}〈8v\ \text{cos}\ u,8v\ \text{sin}\ u,{v}^{2}{\text{cos}}^{2}u+{v}^{2}{\text{sin}}^{2}u〉\cdot 〈0,0,v〉dvdu \\ & =-55{\int }_{0}^{2\pi }{\int }_{0}^{1}〈8v\ \text{cos}\ u,8v\ \text{sin}\ u,{v}^{2}〉\cdot 〈0,0,v〉dvdu \\ & =-55{\int }_{0}^{2\pi }{\int }_{0}^{1}{v}^{3}dvdu=-\frac{55\pi }{2}.\end{array}\]

    Last, let’s consider the cylindrical side of the object. This surface has parameterization \(\text{r}(u,v)=〈\text{cos}\ u,\text{sin}\ u,v〉,0\le u<2\pi ,1\le v\le 4.\) By , we know that \({\text{t}}_{u}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{v}=〈\text{cos}\ u,\text{sin}\ u,0〉.\) By ,

    \[\begin{array}{ll}{∬}_{{S}_{3}}\text{-}k∇T\cdot d\text{S} & =-55{\int }_{0}^{2\pi }{\int }_{1}^{4}∇T(u,v)\cdot ({\text{t}}_{v}\ \times \ {\text{t}}_{u})dvdu \\ & =-55{\int }_{0}^{2\pi }{\int }_{1}^{4}〈2v\ \text{cos}\ u,2v\ \text{sin}\ u,{\text{cos}}^{2}u+{\text{sin}}^{2}u〉\cdot 〈\text{cos}\ u,\text{sin}\ u,0〉dvdu \\ & =-55{\int }_{0}^{2\pi }{\int }_{0}^{1}〈2v\ \text{cos}\ u,2v\ \text{sin}\ u,1〉\cdot 〈\text{cos}\ u,\text{sin}\ u,0〉dvdu \\ & =-55{\int }_{0}^{2\pi }{\int }_{0}^{1}(2v\ {\text{cos}}^{2}u+2v\ {\text{sin}}^{2}u)dvdu \\ & =-55{\int }_{0}^{2\pi }{\int }_{0}^{1}2vdvdu=-55{\int }_{0}^{2\pi }du=-110\pi .\end{array}\]

    Therefore, the rate of heat flow across S is \(\frac{55\pi }{2}-\frac{55\pi }{2}-110\pi =-110\pi .\)

  1. Find the parametric representations of a cylinder, a cone, and a sphere.
  2. Describe the surface integral of a scalar-valued function over a parametric surface.
  3. Use a surface integral to calculate the area of a given surface.
  4. Explain the meaning of an oriented surface, giving an example.
  5. Describe the surface integral of a vector field.
  6. Use surface integrals to solve applied problems.
  7. Surfaces can be parameterized, just as curves can be parameterized. In general, surfaces must be parameterized with two parameters.

Questions people ask

What is a partial derivative?

The ordinary derivative with respect to one variable while every other variable is frozen — the slope of the surface in one coordinate direction.

What does the gradient point at?

Uphill: the direction of steepest increase, with length equal to that steepest slope. It is perpendicular to the level curves.
