Section 14.8: Stokes’ Theorem
Definition: Let S be an orientable surface. The orientation of S induces the positive orientation of the boundary curve C. This means that if you walk in the positive direction
~ , then the surface will be on your
around C with your head pointing in the direction of N
left.
Theorem: (Stokes’ Theorem)
Let S be an orientable piecewise-smooth surface that is bounded by a simple, closed,
piecewise-smooth boundary curve C with positive orientation. Let F~ be a vector field whose
components have continuous partial derivatives on an open region in R3 that contains S.

and S is the hemisphere x2 + y 2 + z 2 = 1, z ≥ 0, oriented upward.
The boundary curve C is the circle x2 + y 2 = 1 in the xy-plane, traversed counterclockwise.
This curve can be parameterized by

The curve C is an ellipse which is not easy to parameterize. Thus, we apply Stokes’ Theorem.

The surface S is the elliptical region in the plane z = x + 4 bounded by C. If S is oriented
upward, then C has the induced positive orientation. The projection of S onto the xy-plane
is the disk x2 + y 2 ≤ 4. By Stokes’ Theorem,

The surface S is the part of the plane 3x + y + z = 3 in the first octant. If S is oriented
upward, then C has the induced positive orientation. The projection of S onto the xy-plane
is the triangular region given by
D = {(x, y)|0 ≤ x ≤ 1, 0 ≤ y ≤ 3 − 3x}.
