Intergrating by parts with u = t⇒ du = dt, dv = sin(3+3t)dt ⇒ v = −13 cos(3+3t) gives ∫
Cx sin yds = 20[−13cos(3 + 3t) + 19sin(3 + 3t)]10 = 20[−13cos 6 +19sin 6 + 0−

28. We graph F (x, y) = √ x
x2+y2i +√ y
x2+y2j and the curve C. In the first quadrant, each vector starting on C points in roughly the same direction as C, so the tangential component F · T is positive. In the second quadrant, each vector starting on C points in roughly the direction opposite to C, so F· T is negative. Here, it appears that the tangential components in the first and second quadrants counteract each other, so it seems reasonable to guess that∫
CF · dr = ∫
CF · T ds is zero. To verify, 1
we evaluate ∫
CF · dr. The curve C can be represented by r(t) = ti + (1 + t2)j,−1 ≤ t ≤ 1, so F (r(t)) = √ t

48. Use the orientation pictured in the figure. Then since B is tangent to any circle that lies in the plane perpendicular to the wire, B = |B|T where T is the unit tangent to the circle C : x = r cos θ, y = r sin θ. Thus B = |B| < − sin θ, cos θ >.
Then ∫

CB· dr = µ0I. Hence |B| = µ2πr0I.
