3 core Multivariable calculus Calculus
Evaluate line integral \( \int_C (x^2 + yz)ds \), where \( C \) is the line with parameterization \( \mathbf{r}(t) = \langle 2t, 5t, -t \rangle \), \( 0 \le t \le 10 \). Reparameterize \( C \) with parameterization \( \mathbf{s}(t) = \langle 4t, 10t, -2t \rangle \), \( 0 \le t \le 5 \), recalculate line integral \( \int_C (x^2 + yz)ds \), and notice that the change of parameterization had no effect on the value of the integral.
