Solve Stokes Equation Help: Homework Statement

Homework Statement

let F be vector field:
[tex]\[\vec F = \cos (xyz)\hat j + (\cos (xyz) - 2x)\hat k\] [/tex]
let L be the the curve that intersects between the cylinder [tex]\[(x - 1)^2 + (y - 2)^2 = 4
\][/tex] and the plane y+z=3/2
calculate:
[tex]\[\left| {\int {\vec Fd\vec r} } \right|\][/tex]

Homework Equations

in order to solve this i thought of using the stokes theorem because the normal to the plane is [tex] \[\frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}(0,1,1)\] [/tex]
thus giving me
[tex]\oint{Fdr}=\int\int{curl(F)*n*ds}=\int\int{2/sqrt{2}*\sin(xyz)}[/tex]


i tried to parametries x y and z x= rcos(t)+1 y=rsin(t)+2 z=1/2-rsin(t)

but it won't work

Would x = 1 + 2 cos(t), y = 2 + 2 sin(t) and z = -1/2 - 2 sin(t) do the trick?

 

[supercali]

i wonder if it is allowed given we have to do a multiple integral needing 2 variables

Why wouldn't you just use Green's?

 

[supercali]

using green or stokes is the same thing green is just a private solution of stokes and if you use it you are still stuck with that sin(xyz)
