QUESTION #4100
Question 1
Using partial fractions \(\dfrac{5Z-2}{Z(Z-1)}=\dfrac{2}{Z}+\dfrac{3}{Z-1}\), the value of \(\displaystyle\oint_{|Z|=2}\dfrac{5Z-2}{Z(Z-1)}\,dZ\) by the Residue Theorem is:
Correct Answer Explanation
Both poles \(Z=0\) (residue \(2\)) and \(Z=1\) (residue \(3\)) lie inside \(|Z|=2\). By Cauchy's Residue Theorem: \(\oint = 2\pi i(\text{Res}_{Z=0}+\text{Res}_{Z=1})=2\pi i(2+3)=10\pi i\).
