(a) at P ;
(b) a unit vector normal to the surface at P ;
(c) a vector in the direction of most rapid increase of at P;
(d) the magnitude of the vector in (c);
(e) the derivative of at in a direction parallel to the line
where C is as selected.
over the entire surface of a cube in the first octant with edges of length along the coordinate axes, where.
Given that , use the divergence theorem to show that over any closed surface is zero.
Use either Stokes' theorem or the divergence theorem to evaluate each of the following integrals in the easiest possible way.
, where is the part of the surface above the plane.
