The divergence theorem for a surface consisting of a sphere is computed in which coordinate system?(a) Cartesian(b) Cylindrical(c) Spherical(d) Depends on the functionThe question was asked during an interview.Question is from Gauss Divergence Theorem in portion Vector Calculus of Electromagnetic Theory |
Answer» CORRECT choice is (d) Depends on the function For explanation: Seeing the SURFACE as sphere, we would immediately choose spherical SYSTEM, but it is WRONG. The divergence operation is performed in that COORDINATE system in which the function belongs to. It is independent of the surface region. |
