  1. (15 points) Suppose the charge density on an annular ( 1 r 2 ) semi-circular plate (shown below) is given by the linear function σ ( x , y ) = 3 + x + y . Find the total charge by evaluating the integral D σ ( x , y ) d A where D is the shaded region below given by D = { ( x , y ) : 1 x 2 + y 2 4 , x 0 } . (Hint: Write this integral in polar coordinates and evaluate it.)
