Exercise 19

Avg difficulty 2.5

Consider the iterated integral I=∫−30∫−9−y20yx2+y2+1 dx dy.I = \int_{-3}^{0} \int_{-\sqrt{9-y^2}}^{0} \frac{y}{x^2 + y^2+1} \, dx \, dy.

  1. Sketch (and label) the region of integration.

  2. Convert the given iterated integral to one in polar coordinates.

  3. Evaluate the iterated integral in (b).

  4. State one possible interpretation of the value you found in (c).
