∂z (x + 2yz) = 2y = ∂y (y + 3xz − 1); so F is conservative.

So f (x, y, z) = x2 y + y 2 z + xz 3 − z + c.

Method 2: ∂x = 2xy + z , so f (x, y, z) = x2 y + xz 3 + g(y, z).
∂f 2 ∂g 2 ∂g
∂y = x + ∂y = x + 2yz, so ∂y = 2yz.
Therefore g(y, z) = y 2 z + h(z), and f (x, y, z) = x2 y + xz 3 + y 2 z + h(z).
∂f
∂z = 3xz 2 + y 2 + h� (z) = y 2 + 3xz 2 − 1, so h� (z) = −1.
Therefore h(z) = −z + c, and f (x, y, z) = x2 y + xz 3 + y 2 z − z + c.

Problem 4.
a) S is the graph of z = f (x, y) = 1 − x2 − y 2 , so n̂ dS = �−fx , −fy , 1� dA = �2x, 2y, 1� dA.
Therefore S F� · n̂ dS = S �x, y, 2(1 − z)� · �2x, 2y, 1� dA = S 2x2 + 2y 2 + 2(1 − z) dA = S 4x2 +

4y 2 dA (since z = 1 − x2 − y 2 ).

a) curl F� = �� ∂x ∂y ∂z �� = 2yı̂ − 2xĵ.

b) On the��unit sphere, n̂ = xˆı + yˆj + zk, ˆ = �2y, −2x, 0� · �x, y, z� = 2xy − 2xy = 0;

therefore R curl F · n̂ dS = 0.
c) By Stokes, C F� · d�r = R curl F� · n̂ dS, where R is the region delimited by C on the unit sphere.

Using the result of b), we get C F� · d�r = R curl F� · n̂ dS = 0.
