Question

The closed curve shown in the figure is described byr=1+cosθr = 1 + \cos\theta, where r=x2+y2r = \sqrt{x^2 + y^2}; x=rcosθ,y=rsinθx = r\cos\theta, y = r\sin\thetaThe magnitude of the line integral of the vector field F=yi^+xj^F = -y\hat{i} + x\hat{j} around the closed curve is ____________ (Round off to 2 decimal places).
