To solve this problem, we calculate the work done by the force field $\mathbf{F}(x, y, z)$ along the curve $\mathbf{r}(t)$ by using the line integral:

$W = \int_C \mathbf{F} \cdot d\mathbf{r}$

Where:

• $\mathbf{F}(x, y, z) = 8xy^2\mathbf{i} + 12x^2y^2\mathbf{j} + 4x^2y^3\mathbf{k}$,
• $\mathbf{r}(t) = 2\cos(t)\mathbf{i} + 2\sin(t)\mathbf{j} + t\mathbf{k}$ for $t \in [0, \pi]$.

Steps:

1. Parameterize the curve $C$:

The position vector is: $\mathbf{r}(t) = 2\cos(t)\mathbf{i} + 2\sin(t)\mathbf{j} + t\mathbf{k}.$ Its derivative (tangent vector) is: $\frac{d\mathbf{r}}{dt} = -2\sin(t)\mathbf{i} + 2\cos(t)\mathbf{j} + \mathbf{k}.$

2. Write the components of $\mathbf{F}$ in terms of $t$:

The force field $\mathbf{F}(x, y, z)$ depends on $x = 2\cos(t)$, $y = 2\sin(t)$, and $z = t$. Substituting these into $\mathbf{F}$: $\mathbf{F}(x, y, z) = 8(2\cos(t))(2\sin(t))^2\mathbf{i} + 12(2\cos(t))^2(2\sin(t))^2\mathbf{j} + 4(2\cos(t))^2(2\sin(t))^3\mathbf{k}.$

Simplify each component:

• $F_x = 8(2\cos(t))(4\sin^2(t)) = 64\cos(t)\sin^2(t)$,
• $F_y = 12(4\cos^2(t))(4\sin^2(t)) = 192\cos^2(t)\sin^2(t)$,
• $F_z = 4(4\cos^2(t))(8\sin^3(t)) = 128\cos^2(t)\sin^3(t)$.

Thus: $\mathbf{F}(t) = (64\cos(t)\sin^2(t))\mathbf{i} + (192\cos^2(t)\sin^2(t))\mathbf{j} + (128\cos^2(t)\sin^3(t))\mathbf{k}.$

3. Compute $\mathbf{F} \cdot \frac{d\mathbf{r}}{dt}$:

Substitute $\mathbf{F}(t)$ and $\frac{d\mathbf{r}}{dt}$ into the dot product: $\mathbf{F} \cdot \frac{d\mathbf{r}}{dt} = F_x(-2\sin(t)) + F_y(2\cos(t)) + F_z(1).$

Expand each term:

• $F_x(-2\sin(t)) = (64\cos(t)\sin^2(t))(-2\sin(t)) = -128\cos(t)\sin^3(t)$,
• $F_y(2\cos(t)) = (192\cos^2(t)\sin^2(t))(2\cos(t)) = 384\cos^3(t)\sin^2(t)$,
• $F_z(1) = 128\cos^2(t)\sin^3(t)$.

Combine: $\mathbf{F} \cdot \frac{d\mathbf{r}}{dt} = -128\cos(t)\sin^3(t) + 384\cos^3(t)\sin^2(t) + 128\cos^2(t)\sin^3(t).$

Factor common terms: $\mathbf{F} \cdot \frac{d\mathbf{r}}{dt} = 128\cos(t)\sin^3(t)(-1 + \cos(t)) + 384\cos^3(t)\sin^2(t).$

4. Set up and evaluate the integral:

The work is: $W = \int_0^\pi \mathbf{F} \cdot \frac{d\mathbf{r}}{dt} \, dt.$

Substitute $\mathbf{F} \cdot \frac{d\mathbf{r}}{dt}$ into the integral and simplify further: $W = \int_0^\pi \left[128\cos(t)\sin^3(t)(-1 + \cos(t)) + 384\cos^3(t)\sin^2(t)\right] \, dt.$

5. Solve the integral step by step:

Break into separate terms and solve:

1. $-128\int_0^\pi \cos(t)\sin^3(t) \, dt$,
2. $128\int_0^\pi \cos^2(t)\sin^3(t) \, dt$,
3. $384\int_0^\pi \cos^3(t)\sin^2(t) \, dt$.

Use trigonometric identities and substitution to solve each term. For example:

• $\sin^2(t) = 1 - \cos^2(t)$,
• Let $u = \cos(t)$, so $du = -\sin(t)dt$.
