1(a) (b)

Evaluate the double integral

[3 marks]

Sketch the area at x > 0 that is enclosed by the y-axis, the curve y = 7 x2 and the curve y = x2 - x 3. [1 mark] Use a double integral to calculate the area described in Q1(b). [3 marks]

(c) (d)

The area described in Q1(b) is filled with a flat metal plate with a surface density ! = 2x. If the plate is secured to the y-axis by massless hinges, write down, but do NOT evaluate, a double integral that describes the torque exerted about the y-axis by the weight of the plate. [2 marks] With the plate still in the same place, the hinges are moved so that it is secured to the line y = -2. Now write down, but do NOT evaluate, a double integral that describes the moment of inertia of the plate about this line. [2 marks]

2(a)

Evaluate the work done by the force, F = 4x2i + xyj, moving along the path y=x2 from (0,0) to (4,16). [3 marks]

(b)

The closed path integral represents the work done by the force F = yi + ysin(x)j, moving around the path C, which goes from (0,0) to (",0) along the line y = 0 and then back to (0,0) along the curve y =sin(x).

(i) Write down a double integral, with limits, that could be used to calculate the work done. Do NOT evaluate the above closed path integral. [3 marks] (ii) Evaluate your double integral from Q2b(i). [3 marks]
