Is the vector is irrotational. E = yz i + xz j + xy k(a) Yes(b) NoThe question was asked by my college professor while I was bunking the class.I need to ask this question from Vector Calculus in section Vector Calculus of Electromagnetic Theory

Answer»

Correct option is (a) Yes

To explain: Curl E = i(Dy(XY) – DZ(XZ)) – j (DX(xy) – Dz(yz)) + k(Dx(xz) – Dy(yz)) =

i(x – x) – j(y – y) + k(z – z) = 0

Since the curl is zero, the vector is irrotational or curl-free.
