Let x=(x,y)∈R2, n(x) denote the unit outward normal to the ellipse γ whose equation is given by x24+y29=1 at the point x on it.
What will be the value of ∫γx⋅n(x)ds(x) ?
Answer
Hint. Use the planar version of the Divergence Theorem:
∫∂D(v1,v2)⋅nds=∫D(∂v1∂x+∂v2∂y)dxdy.
In particular take a look to this example.
