The values of the integral (1)/(2π j)∮_c (e^z)/(z-2) dz along a closed contour c in anti-clockwise direction for (i) the point z0 = 2 inside the contour c, and (ii) the point z0 = 2 outside the contour c, respectively, are

  1. (A) (i) 2.72, (ii) 0
  2. (B) (i) 7.39, (ii) 0
  3. (C) (i) 0, (ii) 2.72
  4. (D) (i) 0, (ii) 7.39

Correct answer: (B) (i) 7.39, (ii) 0

Solution

By the Cauchy integral formula, (1/2 pi j)*contour-integral of e^z/(z-2) with z0=2 inside equals e^2 = 7.39. With z0=2 outside the contour the integrand is analytic inside, so the integral is 0. Hence (i) 7.39, (ii) 0.
