For a point (a,0)(a, 0) let Va=(−y(x−a)2+y2,  x−a(x−a)2+y2)\mathbf V_a = \left(\dfrac{-y}{(x - a)^2 + y^2},\; \dfrac{x - a}{(x - a)^2 + y^2}\right), and let F=V1−V−1+(0,  x2)\mathbf F = \mathbf V_1 - \mathbf V_{-1} + (0,\; x^2). Let CC be the lemniscate (x2+y2)2=2(x2−y2)(x^2 + y^2)^2 = 2(x^2 - y^2), traced once by r(t)=(2cos⁡t1+sin⁡2t,  2sin⁡tcos⁡t1+sin⁡2t)\mathbf r(t) = \left(\dfrac{\sqrt2\cos t}{1 + \sin^2 t},\; \dfrac{\sqrt2\sin t\cos t}{1 + \sin^2 t}\right), 0≤t≤2π0\le t\le 2\pi. Evaluate ∮CF⋅dr\displaystyle\oint_C\mathbf F\cdot d\mathbf r. Give your answer in terms of π\pi.
