How Do You Parametrize Curves for Line Integrals in Complex Numbers?

AI Thread Summary
To parametrize curves for line integrals in complex numbers, it's essential to understand the definition of the curve and how to express it in terms of a parameter, typically t. Users in the discussion suggest providing specific examples of problems to receive targeted help or resources. Clarifying the exact point of confusion can lead to more effective guidance. Seeking additional resources online can also aid in mastering the topic. Understanding these concepts is crucial for successfully completing line integral problems.

Hi,

I am currently studying complex numbers and I am at the part we have to find line integrals over a simple closed curve gamma(t)..

I know the definition, but when i read a problem I am n ot sure how to parameratize the curve. I was wondering if there are some tricks to this. Would anyone be able to direct me to some useful site about this topic, any help would be appreciated (test in a couple of days)

THank You

Hi chota,

Can you give an example of exactly where you are getting stuck at? Then maybe someone will be able to either help or point you to some helpful resources.
 

Thread 'Errors and significant figures'

I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...

Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'

Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'

In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...

Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'

Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'

Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
