# 6.6 Surface integrals  (Page 6/27)

 Page 6 / 27

In addition to parameterizing surfaces given by equations or standard geometric shapes such as cones and spheres, we can also parameterize surfaces of revolution. Therefore, we can calculate the surface area of a surface of revolution by using the same techniques. Let $y=f\left(x\right)\ge 0$ be a positive single-variable function on the domain $a\le x\le b$ and let S be the surface obtained by rotating $f$ about the x -axis ( [link] ). Let $\theta$ be the angle of rotation. Then, S can be parameterized with parameters x and $\theta$ by

$\text{r}\left(x,\theta \right)=⟨x,f\left(x\right)\text{cos}\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}\theta ,f\left(x\right)\text{sin}\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}\theta ⟩,a\le x\le b,0\le x<2\pi .$

## Calculating surface area

Find the area of the surface of revolution obtained by rotating $y={x}^{2},0\le x\le b$ about the x -axis ( [link] ).

This surface has parameterization

$\text{r}\left(x,\theta \right)=⟨x,{x}^{2}\text{cos}\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}\theta ,{x}^{2}\text{sin}\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}\theta ⟩,0\le x\le b,0\le x<2\pi .$

The tangent vectors are ${\text{t}}_{x}=⟨1,2x\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}\text{cos}\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}\theta ,2x\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}\text{sin}\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}\theta ⟩\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}\text{and}\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}{\text{t}}_{\theta }=⟨0,\text{−}{x}^{2}\text{sin}\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}\theta ,\text{−}{x}^{2}\text{cos}\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}\theta ⟩.$ Therefore,

$\begin{array}{cc}\hfill {\text{t}}_{x}\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}×\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}{\text{t}}_{\theta }& =⟨2{x}^{3}{\text{cos}}^{2}\theta +2{x}^{3}{\text{sin}}^{2}\theta ,\text{−}{x}^{2}\text{cos}\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}\theta ,\text{−}{x}^{2}\text{sin}\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}\theta ⟩\hfill \\ & =⟨2{x}^{3},\text{−}{x}^{2}\text{cos}\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}\theta ,\text{−}{x}^{2}\text{sin}\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}\theta ⟩\hfill \end{array}$

and

$\begin{array}{cc}\hfill {\text{t}}_{x}\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}×\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}{\text{t}}_{\theta }& =\sqrt{4{x}^{6}+{x}^{4}{\text{cos}}^{2}\theta +{x}^{4}{\text{sin}}^{2}\theta }\hfill \\ & =\sqrt{4{x}^{6}+{x}^{4}}\hfill \\ & ={x}^{2}\sqrt{4{x}^{2}+1}.\hfill \end{array}$

The area of the surface of revolution is

$\begin{array}{cc}\hfill {\int }_{0}^{b}{\int }_{0}^{\pi }{x}^{2}\sqrt{4{x}^{2}+1}d\theta dx& =2\pi {\int }_{0}^{b}{x}^{2}\sqrt{4{x}^{2}+1}dx\hfill \\ & =2\pi {\left[\frac{1}{64}\left(2\sqrt{4{x}^{2}+1}\left(8{x}^{3}+x\right){\text{sinh}}^{-1}\left(2x\right)\right)\right]}_{0}^{b}\hfill \\ & =2\pi \left[\frac{1}{64}\left(2\sqrt{4{b}^{2}+1}\left(8{b}^{3}+b\right){\text{sinh}}^{-1}\left(2b\right)\right)\right].\hfill \end{array}$

Use [link] to find the area of the surface of revolution obtained by rotating curve $y=\text{sin}\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}x,0\le x\le \pi$ about the x -axis.

$2\pi \left(\sqrt{2}+{\text{sinh}}^{-1}\left(1\right)\right)$

## 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 $\text{r}\left(u,v\right)=⟨x\left(u,v\right),y\left(u,v\right),z\left(u,v\right)⟩$ with parameter domain D and let $f\left(x,y,z\right)$ 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 $\text{Δ}u$ and vertical length $\text{Δ}v.$ 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 $\text{Δ}{S}_{ij}$ to form the Riemann sum

Do somebody tell me a best nano engineering book for beginners?
what is fullerene does it is used to make bukky balls
are you nano engineer ?

what is the Synthesis, properties,and applications of carbon nano chemistry
so some one know about replacing silicon atom with phosphorous in semiconductors device?
Yeah, it is a pain to say the least. You basically have to heat the substarte up to around 1000 degrees celcius then pass phosphene gas over top of it, which is explosive and toxic by the way, under very low pressure.

can nanotechnology change the direction of the face of the world
At high concentrations (>0.01 M), the relation between absorptivity coefficient and absorbance is no longer linear. This is due to the electrostatic interactions between the quantum dots in close proximity. If the concentration of the solution is high, another effect that is seen is the scattering of light from the large number of quantum dots. This assumption only works at low concentrations of the analyte. Presence of stray light.
