Final answer:
To evaluate the line integral, we need to parameterize the given curve and find the differential arc length. Substituting the values of x and y into the formula, we get ds = 2 sqrt(t^2 + 1) dt. Then, we can write the line integral and integrate term by term. The integral does not have a closed form solution, but it can be evaluated numerically.
Step-by-step explanation:
To evaluate the line integral, we start by parameterizing the curve using the given equations:
x = t^2
y = 2t
Next, we need to find ds, the differential arc length along the curve. We can use the formula ds = sqrt((dx/dt)^2 + (dy/dt)^2) dt.
Substituting the given values of x and y into the equation, we get:
ds = sqrt((2t)^2 + (2)^2) dt = sqrt(4t^2 + 4) dt = sqrt(4(t^2 + 1)) dt = 2 sqrt(t^2 + 1) dt
Now we can write the line integral as:
∫(c) xy ds = ∫(0 to 1) t^2(2t) 2 sqrt(t^2 + 1) dt
Integrating term by term, we get:
∫(c) xy ds = ∫(0 to 1) 4t^3 sqrt(t^2 + 1) dt
Unfortunately, this integral does not have a simple closed form solution. However, you can evaluate it numerically using numerical integration methods such as Simpson's rule or the trapezoidal rule.
