Answer

$$18$$

Work Step by Step

The line equation can be written as: $ r(t)=r_0+kt=(0,0,0)+t \lt 0,3,4 \gt$ or, $r(t)=\lt 0, 3t, 4t \gt $ Now, $ x=0 $ and $dx= 0 $ and $y=3t $ or, $ dy= 3 dt$ and $ z= 4t $ or, $ dz= 4dt $ Now, we will substitute all the above values in the given integral. $ \int_{0,0,0}^{0, 3, 4} x^2 \ dx + yz \ dy +\dfrac{y^2}{z} \ dz $ or, $=\int_0^1 0+36t^2 +18t^2 $ or, $=18 [t^2]_0^1 $ or, $=18$
