Homework Statement



F(x,y,z)=4x i - 2y^2 j +z^2 k

S is the cylinder x^2+y^2<=4, The plane 0<=z<=6-x-y

Find the flux of F

Homework Equations



The Attempt at a Solution



What is the difference after if I change the equation to inequality?

For example :
x^2+y^2<=4, z=0

x^2+y^2<=4 , z=6-x-y

x^2+y^2=4, z=6-x-y

thanks!

I find that the answer is 84 pi

For example :
x^2+y^2<=4, z=3

x^2+y^2<=4 , z=0

X^2+y^2=4, z=3

thanks!

Make a sketch and everything will become clear.

Answer to what??

One inequality gives the surface of the cylinder and the other gives the solid cylinder.
 
Sorry, I made some mistake previously and I modified the question.
If I want to find the flux of the bottom face, top face, side surface of cylinder and the tangent surface of the cylinder,
How can I express it in inequality?

Bottom: ##\vec R(x,y) = \langle x,y,0\rangle,~0\le x^2+y^2\le 4##
Top: ##\vec R(x,y) = \langle x,y,3\rangle,~0\le x^2+y^2\le 4##
Side: ##\vec R(\theta,z) = \langle 2\cos\theta,2\sin\theta,z\rangle,~0\le \theta\le 2\pi,~0\le z\le3##
I have no idea what you mean by the "tangent surface".
You could, and likely should, use polar coordinates for the first two instead of ##x## and ##y## parameters.
 
Thread 'Use greedy vertex coloring algorithm to prove the upper bound of χ'
Hi! I am struggling with the exercise I mentioned under "Homework statement". The exercise is about a specific "greedy vertex coloring algorithm". One definition (which matches what my book uses) can be found here: https://people.cs.uchicago.edu/~laci/HANDOUTS/greedycoloring.pdf Here is also a screenshot of the relevant parts of the linked PDF, i.e. the def. of the algorithm: Sadly I don't have much to show as far as a solution attempt goes, as I am stuck on how to proceed. I thought...
