Answer

$\int_C \textbf F \cdot d\textbf r = 0$

Work Step by Step

$\textbf r(t) = 3\sin t \textbf i + 3 \cos t \textbf j = x(t) \textbf i + y(t) \textbf j$ It follows that $x(t) = 3\sin t , y(t) = 3 \cos t$ $\textbf r' = 3\cos t \textbf i - 3\sin t \textbf j \\ \textbf F(x,y) = x\textbf i + y \textbf j\\ \Rightarrow \textbf F (x(t),y(t))= 3\sin t \textbf i + 3 \cos t \textbf j\\ \int_C \textbf F \cdot d\textbf r\\ = \int_C \textbf F \cdot \textbf r' dt\\ = \int ( 3\sin t \textbf i + 3 \cos t \textbf j)\cdot (3\cos t \textbf i - 3\sin t \textbf j ) dt\\ = \int (9 \sin t \cos t - 9 \sin t \cos t) dt\\ =0$ (proved)
