Classical Action Integral [6 pts]

  Compute the classical action integral tex2html_wrap_inline997 .
Hints: The area of an ellipse is tex2html_wrap_inline999 where a and b are the minor and major ``radii'' of the ellipse. The area of a region bounded by a parabola is tex2html_wrap_inline1005 where L and L are the length and width of the region, respectively.
