Electric charge is distributed over the disk x2 + y2 ≤ 16 so that the charge density at (x, y) is rho(x, y) = 2x + 2y + 2x2 + 2y2 (measured in coulombs per square meter). Find the total charge on the disk.

Answer:

Required total charge is [tex]256\pi[/tex] coulombs per square meter.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given electric charge is dristributed over the disk,

[tex]x^2=y^2\leq 16[/tex] so that the charge density at (x,y) is,

[tex]\rho (x,y)=2x+2y+2x^2+2y^2[/tex]

To find total charge on the disk let Q be the total charge and [tex]x=r\cos\theta,y=r\sin\theta[/tex] so that,

[tex]Q={\int\int}_Q\rho(x,y) dA[/tex]                where A is the surface of disk.

[tex]=\int_{0}^{2\pi}\int_{0}^{4}(2x+2y+2x^2+2y^2)dA[/tex]

[tex]=\int_{0}^{2\pi}\int_{0}^{4}(2r\cos\theta+2r\sin\theta+2r^2 \cos^{2}\theta+2r^2\sin^2\theta)rdrd\theta[/tex]

[tex]=2\int_{0}^{2\pi}\int_{0}^{4}r^2(\cos\theta+\sin\theta)drd\theta+2\int_{0}^{2\pi}\int_{0}^{4}r^3drd\theta[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{2}{3}\int_{0}^{2\pi}(\sin\theta+\cos\theta)\Big[r^3\Big]_{0}^{4}d\theta+2\int_{0}^{2\pi}\Big[\frac{r^4}{4}\Big]d\theta[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{128}{3}\int_{0}^{2\pi}(\sin\theta+\cos\theta)d\theta+128\int_{0}^{2\pi}d\theta[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{128}{3}\Big[\sin\theta-\cos\theta\Big]_{0}^{2\pi}+128\times 2\pi[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{128}{3}\Big[\sin 2\pi-\cos 2\pi-\sin 0+\cos 0\Big]+256\pi[/tex]

[tex]=256\pi[/tex]

Hence total charge is [tex]256\pi[/tex] coulombs per square meter.
