Methods for solving double integrals of the form $$\int_a^b \int_0^{f(x)} g(r) dr dx$$ involve applying the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus. The discussion highlights that the integral can be simplified by evaluating the inner integral first, resulting in $$\int_a^b G(f(x)) - G(c) \, dx$$ where $G(r)$ is the antiderivative of $g(r)$. It’s emphasized that the limits must be correctly applied to avoid errors, particularly with constant terms. The final expression incorporates the adjustment for the constant $G(c)$ across the interval $(a-b)$. This approach effectively streamlines the evaluation of such integrals.

Hello everybody!
Are there methods to solve integrals of the following form?
$$\int_a^b \int _0 ^{f(x)} g(r) dr dx$$

Ah ok i think i found it allready :)

$$\int_a^b \int_c^{f(x)} g(r)dr dx = \int_a^b |_c^{f(x)} G(r) = \int_a^b G(f(x)) - G(c) dx = \int_a^b G(f(x))dx - G(c) $$
 
You forgot to apply the limits to the constant $G(c)$:

$$\int_a^b G(f(x)) - G(c) \, dx = \int_a^b G(f(x)) \, dx - G(c) \color{red}{\cdot (a-b)}.$$

:)
 
Haha yes, thank you :)
 
Thread 'Problem with calculating projections of curl using rotation of contour'
Hello! I tried to calculate projections of curl using rotation of coordinate system but I encountered with following problem. Given: ##rot_xA=\frac{\partial A_z}{\partial y}-\frac{\partial A_y}{\partial z}=0## ##rot_yA=\frac{\partial A_x}{\partial z}-\frac{\partial A_z}{\partial x}=1## ##rot_zA=\frac{\partial A_y}{\partial x}-\frac{\partial A_x}{\partial y}=0## I rotated ##yz##-plane of this coordinate system by an angle ##45## degrees about ##x##-axis and used rotation matrix to...
