For example, by calculating the surface of a circle, using an integral.
Both kinds of integrals are essentially calculations of areas under curves. In a definite integral the surface whose area is to be calculated is planar. In a line integral the surface whose area to be calculated might occupy two or more dimensions. You might be interested in the animated diagrams in the wikipedia article for the line integral.

A line integral is a simple integral. they look like: integral x=a to b of (f(x)). A surface integral is an integral of two variables. they look like: integral x=a to b, y=c to d of (f(x,y)). or integral x=a to b of (integral y=c to d of (f(x,y))). The second form is the nested form. A pair of line integrals, one inside the other. This is the easiest way to understand surface integrals, and, normally, solve surface integrals. A volume integral is an integral of three variables. they look like: integral x=a to b, y=c to d, z=e to f of (f(x,y,z)). or integral x=a to b of (integral y=c to d of (integral z=e to f of f(x,y,z))). the above statement is wrong, the person who wrote this stated the first 2 types of integrals as regular, simple, scalar integrals, when line and surface integrals are actually a form of vector calculus. in the previous answer, it is stated that the integrand is just some funtion of x when it is actually usually a vector field and instead of evaluating the integral from some x a to b, you will actually be evaluating the integral along a curve that you will parametrize to get the upper and lower bounds of the integral. as you can see, these are a lot more complicated. looking at your question tho, i dont think you want the whole expanation on how to solve these problems, but more so what they are and what they are used for, because these can be a pain to solve and there are also several ways to solve them indirectly. line integrals have an important part in physics because they alow us to calculate things such as work that have vector values rather than just scalar values as you can use these integrals to describe a particles path along a curve in a force field. surface integrals help us calculate things like flux, or how fluid flows over a surface. if you want to learn more, look into things like greens theorem, or the divergence theorem. p.s. his definition of a surface integral is acutally how you find the volume of a region
Let r = radius, h = vertical height, d = length along the side. The lateral surface area = integral from 0 to 2*pi {r * sqrt[d^2 cos^2(x) + h^2 sin^2(x)] dx}, which is the complete Elliptical Integral of the 2nd Kind.

What changes in earth's surface that happen at a convergent boundary with those happen at a divergent boundary?
sea floor spreading and landslides
divergent
Upward movement of air, convergence at the surface, and clockwise rotation do not describe the surface air movement of a Northern Hemisphere low. Instead, low pressure systems in the Northern Hemisphere typically exhibit rising air motion, surface divergence, and counterclockwise rotation.
