Syllabus, Math 282, Several Variable Calculus II, Spring 2024 (CRN 32806) 

·  PROFESSOR: Arkady Berenstein, 306 Fenton Hall, Phone: 346-5624, Email: arkadiy@uoregon.edu

·  CLASSES:  360 Condon Hall, TR, 16:00--17:50

·  OFFICE HOURS: W 15:00—16:30 (or by appointment, please use email).

·  TEXT:  James Stewart, (MultiVariable) Calculus, 8th Edition, Cengage Learning, 2015, Chapters 15-16.

·  PREREQUISITES: Math 281.

·  COURSE CONTENT: This is the second term of the multivariable calculus sequence. The course covers two big topics. The first topic is double and triple integrals with applications to volumes of solids. The second topic is the 3D differential geometry including vector fields and surface integration with an emphasis on Green's Theorem, Stokes' Theorem and Divergence Theorem. Specific learning outcomes include:

·  evaluation of integrals over regions in the plane and in space both as iterated integrals and by applying the change of variable theorem.

·  using spherical, cylindrical, polar elliptical and toroidal coordinates and common transformations in these calculations.

·  computing the center of mass and the total mass of a region with a variable mass density

·  computing certain improper integrals, surface are integrals, arc length integrals, line integrals, and flux integrals.

·  finding the work done and the mass flow across a membrane as well as center of gravity and total mass of a thin wire or a membrane

·  computing the gradient, curl, and divergence of vector fields

·  determining if a vector field is conservative and, if so, finding the potential function

·  evaluating certain line integrals

·  understanding both sides of the equations and the hypotheses in Green's, Stokes', and Gauss's theorems

·  using these 3 results to push curves around and surfaces around to evaluate flux and line integrals of certain vector fields

    ·  using Green's theorem to evaluate certain area integrals in the plane and find their centers of mass

·  ATTENDANCE: Please remember that if you miss a class it is your responsibility to find out what happened in that class.

·  COURSE WEB PAGE: The homework and other class material are also available at the web page http://pages.uoregon.edu/arkadiy/282new.html

·  GRADING: Total 100%. Will be based on:

·  HOMEWORK  (20%): Homework due on Thursdays. The first homework is due on Thursday April 11. Late homework will not be accepted. I will choose a subset of the assigned problems to be graded. The lowest homework score will be dropped.

·  QUIZZES (10%) There will be short quizzes on Thursdays Week 2, 4, 7, and 9. They will be based on the material covered in the previous week's homework.

·  MIDTERM 1 (20%) on Thursday May 2.

·  MIDTERM 2 (20%) on Thursday May 23.

·  FINAL (30%) on Monday June 10, 12-30-14:30.

·  REMARK. You may bring a 3x5 inch index card with any formulas on it to any exam or quiz if you wish. You may use a handheld graphing calculator to any exam or quiz.
