Step 1: Recognize that the surface integral \( \int_S (x^2 z + y^2 z) \, dS \) involves integrating over the hemisphere \( x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = 4 \) where \( z \geq 0 \). The hemisphere is a portion of a sphere with radius 2 centered at the origin.
Step 2: Parameterize the surface \( S \) using spherical coordinates. In spherical coordinates, \( x = r \sin\theta \cos\phi \), \( y = r \sin\theta \sin\phi \), and \( z = r \cos\theta \). For the hemisphere, \( r = 2 \), \( \theta \in [0, \pi/2] \), and \( \phi \in [0, 2\pi] \).
Step 3: Compute the surface element \( dS \). The surface element in spherical coordinates is given by \( r^2 \sin\theta \, d\theta \, d\phi \). Substituting \( r = 2 \), we have \( dS = 4 \sin\theta \, d\theta \, d\phi \).
Step 4: Substitute the parameterization and \( dS \) into the integral. The integrand \( x^2 z + y^2 z \) becomes \( (r^2 \sin^2\theta \cos^2\phi + r^2 \sin^2\theta \sin^2\phi) r \cos\theta \). Simplify using \( \cos^2\phi + \sin^2\phi = 1 \), yielding \( r^3 \sin^2\theta \cos\theta \). Substituting \( r = 2 \), the integrand becomes \( 8 \sin^2\theta \cos\theta \).
Step 5: Set up the integral in spherical coordinates. The surface integral becomes \( \int_0^{2\pi} \int_0^{\pi/2} 8 \sin^2\theta \cos\theta \cdot 4 \sin\theta \, d\theta \, d\phi \). Factor out constants and simplify the integral over \( \theta \) and \( \phi \). Evaluate the integral step by step to find the final result.
