||Tu × Tv|| du dv,

where Tu = ∂ ∂uΦ and Tv = ∂ ∂vΦ , to find the area of the surface S = Φ(D). (b) Let S denote the disk of radius R in the xy-plane. Thinking of this disk as a surface in R^3 , find a parameterization of it, i.e. find a region D ⊂ R^2 and a mapping Φ : D → R^3 : (u, v) 7 → (x(u, v), y(u, v), z(u, v)) such that S = Φ(D). Then use the formula given in part (a) to find its surface area.

x^2 + y^2 for 0 ≤ z ≤ 3. Let S 2 be the “top” of the cone, described by x^2 + y^2 ≤ 3 , z = 3. Let S = S 1 ∪ S 2 , i.e the lateral side of the cone plus its top (thus S is a closed surface). Put F(x, y, z) = (y, −x, x^2 + y^2 ). Calculuate the flux of F through the cone, i.e.

S F^ ·^ dS.^ Make sure your normal vectors point “outward.” [Hint: You need to do two surface integrals and add the results; one over the lateral part of the cone and one over its top part. You may parameterize the lateral part of the cone by Φ(θ, r) = (r cos θ, r sin θ, r) for 0 ≤ r ≤ 3 and 0 ≤ θ ≤ 2 π. The outward normal vector is Tθ × Tr. You’ll have to figure out how to integrate over the top part of the cone.]
