This is a take-home, open-book, open notes exam; you are encouraged to use Mathematica or Wolfram Alpha to assist you in calculations. You must, however, complete it entirely on your own . It is due on Dec 22, noon, at the latest – no exception. Please indicate clearly where each problem starts and do not forget to put your name on your exam.
1.
Please state the following: a) an equation relating the dot product of two vectors with the angle between them b) the definition of the gradient of a function ๐(๐ฅ, ๐ฆ, ๐ง) and its properties c) the main difference between Green’s and Stoke’s Theorem as far as the vector field ๐นโ is concerned d) the Divergence Theorem (also known as Gauss’ Theorem)

3. Determine if the plane through the points ๐(1,0,0) , ๐(0,2,0) , and ๐ (0,0,3) is perpendicular to the plane given by the equation 2๐ฅ − 2๐ฆ − 3๐ง = 1 . Then find the distance of the second plane 2๐ฅ − 2๐ฆ − 3๐ง = 1 to the point (6,2,-1)
4. Determine the following limits, if possible, or explain why they don’t exist. lim

7. Evaluate the following integrals: a) โฌ cosโก(๐ฅ 2 ) ๐๐ด , where R is the triangular region bounded by y = 0 , y = x , and x = 1 b) ∫ ๐ฅ
2 + ๐ฆ 2 ๐๐ , where C is the curve given by ๐(๐ก) =< 2 cos(๐ก) , 2 sin(๐ก) > for 0 ≤ ๐ก ≤ ๐ c) ∫ ๐นโโก๐๐โ , where ๐นโ(๐ฅ, ๐ฆ, ๐ง) =< −๐ฆ 2 , ๐ฅ, ๐ง > and C is the line segment from ๐(−1, −1,0) to ๐(1,2,3) d) โฌ ๐นโ โ ๐โโโก๐๐ , i.e. the flux of the vector field ๐นโ(๐ฅ, ๐ฆ, ๐ง) =< ๐ฅ, ๐ฆ, ๐ง > , where S is the portion of the surface ๐ง = 10 − 2๐ฅ − 2๐ฆ between the coordinate planes.
