(a) Check the divergence theorem for the function v1=r2r^, using as your volume the sphere of radius R, centred at the origin.

(b) Do the same for v2=(1r2)r^. (If the answer surprises you, look back at Prob. 1.16)

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The left and right side of the gauss divergence theorem is equal. Thus, the gauss divergence theorem is proved for v1=r2r^.

(b) The left and right side of the gauss divergence theorem is not equal. Thus, the gauss divergence theorem is not proved for v2=(1r2)r^.

Step by step solution

01

Verify the divergence theorem for function v1 (r)  in part (a)

The divergence of function v1(r) is defined as.v1=1r2r(r2vr).The function v1=r2r^. Now, find the divergence of v1=r2r^as:

.v1=1r2r(r2r^)=1r24r3=4r

The volume integral is taken over the surface of radius R. Now, compute the left part of gauss divergence theorem as:

.v1dv=0200R4rr2sindrdd=4R240sind02d=4R2

Taking the area integration over the surface area of sphere of radius R, to calculate the right side of Gauss divergence theorem, the differential area becomes, da=r2sindd.

The right side of Gauss divergence theorem is computed as follows:

v1.da=(r2sindrdd)r2=020r4sindd=4R2

Thus, the left and right side of gauss divergence theorem are equal. Hence, the theorem is verified for the function in part (a).

02

Verify the divergence theorem for function v2=(1r2)r^ in part (b)

The function is given by v2=(1r2)r^. Now find the divergence of v2=(1r2)r^as:

.v1=1r2rr21r2r^=1r2r(1)=0

The volume integral is taken over the surface of radius R. As.v2=0, then the left part of gauss divergence theorem is computed as:(-v1)dv=0

Taking the area integration over the surface area of sphere of radius R, to calculate the right side of Gauss divergence theorem, then differential area becomes da=r2sindd.

The right side of Gauss divergence theorem is computed as follows:

v1.da=(r2sindrdd)(1r2)=020sindd=4

Thus, the left and right side of gauss divergence theorem are not obtained to be equal. Hence, the theorem is not verified for the function in part (b).

In case you're not persuaded that 2(1r)=-43(r) (Eq. 1.102) withr'=0 for simplicity), try replacing rbyrole="math" localid="1654684442094" r2+2 , and watching what happens as016 Specifically, let role="math" localid="1654686235475" D(r,)=1421r2+2

To demonstrate that this goes to 3(r)as 0:

(a) Show thatD=(r,)=(32/4)(r2+2)-5/2

(b) Check thatD(0,) , as0

(c)Check that D(r,)0 , as 0, for all r0

(d) Check that the integral of D(r,) over all space is 1.

Calculate the surface integral of the function in Ex. 1.7, over the bottomof the box. For consistency, let "upward" be the positive direction. Does thesurface integral depend only on the boundary line for this function? What is thetotal flux over the closedsurface of the box (includingthe bottom)? [Note:For theclosedsurface, the positive direction is "outward," and hence "down," for the bottomface.]

(a) How do the components of a vectoii transform under a translationof coordinates (X= x, y= y- a, z= z,Fig. 1.16a)?

(b) How do the components of a vector transform under an inversionof coordinates (X= -x, y= -y, z= -z,Fig. 1.16b)?

(c) How do the components of a cross product (Eq. 1.13) transform under inversion? [The cross-product of two vectors is properly called a pseudovectorbecause of this "anomalous" behavior.] Is the cross product of two pseudovectors a vector, or a pseudovector? Name two pseudovector quantities in classical mechanics.

(d) How does the scalar triple product of three vectors transform under inversions? (Such an object is called a pseudoscalar.)

Suppose that f is a function of two variables (y and z) only. Show that the gradient f=(f/y)y^(f/z)z^transforms as a vector under rotations, Eq 1.29. [Hint: (f/y)=(f/y)(f/y)+(f/z)(z/y),and the analogous formula for f/z. We know that localid="1654595255202" y=测肠辞蝉蠒+锄蝉颈苍蠒and z=-ycos+zcos;鈥漵olve鈥 these equations for y and z (as functions of localid="1654325243865" yand z(as functions of yand z), and compute the needed derivatives f/y,z/y, etc]

Although the gradient, divergence, and curl theorems are the fundamental integral theorems of vector calculus, it is possible to derive a number of corollaries from them. Show that:

(a)vTd=sTda. [Hint:Let v = cT, where c is a constant, in the divergence theorem; use the product rules.]

(b)vvd=svda. [Hint:Replace v by (v x c) in the divergence

theorem.]

(c)vT2U+TUd=sTUda . [Hint:Let in the

divergence theorem.]

(d)vU2T+UVd=sUTda. [Comment:This is sometimes

called Green's second identity; it follows from (c), which is known as

Green's identity.]

(e) STda=PTdl[Hint:Let v = cT in Stokes' theorem.]
