2 Why for Stokes’ Theorem we can use any surface (surface independence)?

2.1 Front

Why for Stokes’ Theorem we can use any surface (surface independence)?

Let \(\vb{F}\) be a vector field defined for all space, \(C\) a closed curve

Why?

\({\displaystyle \oint_C \vb{F} \cdot \dd{\vb{r}} = \iint_{S_1} (\curl{\vb{F}}) \cdot \vu{n} \dd{S} = \iint_{S_2} (\curl{\vb{F}})\cdot \vu{n} \dd{S}}\)

2.2 Back

I can get a closed surface with contains \(S_1\) and \(S_2\), which its normal vector is outwards the surface.

\({\displaystyle \iint_{S=S_1-S_2} (\curl{\vb{F}}) \cdot \vu{n} \dd{S} = \iint_{S_1} (\curl{\vb{F}}) \cdot \vu{n} \dd{S} - \iint_{S_2} (\curl{\vb{F}}) \cdot \vu{n} \dd{S}}\)

By the diverges theorem, Let \(D\) the interior region of the closed surface \(S\)

\({\displaystyle \iint_S (\curl{\vb{F}}) \cdot \vu{n} \dd{S} = \iiint_D \text{div} (\curl{\vb{F}}) \dd{V} = 0}\)

(Always \(\div{\curl{\vb{F}}} = 0\))

So, \({\displaystyle \iint_{S_1} (\curl{\vb{F}}) \cdot \vu{n} \dd{S} = \iint_{S_2} (\curl{\vb{F}})\cdot \vu{n} \dd{S}}\)

Which is the equation of the ellipse produced by…

  • Plane: \(x+y+z=1\)
  • Cylinder: \(x^2 + y^2 = 1\)

3.2 Back

Surface \(z = 1 -x -y\)

Parametrize the ellipse:

  • \(x = \cos t\)
  • \(y = \sin t\)
  • \(z = 1 - \cos t - \sin t\)
