QUESTION 1
Give a physical interpretation of what is meant by the curl of a vector.
Suppose a vector function A is given by A=-yi + xj and another vector function B is
given by B = xj.
1.1
1.2
1.3
Calculate
(i) the curl of A:
(ii) the curl of B:
V x A and
Vx B.
In which direction are the curls pointing? Hence what can you say about their
divergence and why?
A vector field is given in spherical coordinates as
B = RR² cos(6/2) + Rsin(0) sin(0/2)
.
Evaluate (V x B) ds over the surface of the lower
half of a sphere shown in the figure. Assume the
surface normal is  =-R. The parameters are given
as:
R=7,= 3.14
Note: You may use the Stokes' Theorem.
