Question: Verify that the divergence theorem is true for the vector field F on the region E . F ( x , y , z )

Verify that the divergence theorem is true for the vector field F on the region E.
F(x,y,z)=(:z,y,x:);,Eis the solid ball x2+y2+z29
First compute the divergence of F:divF=deldelx(z)+deldely(y)+deldelz(x)=
, so
dV=V(E). This calculates to the exact value:
S is a sphere of radius 3 centered at the origin which can be parametrized by r(,)=(:3sin()cos(),3sin()sin(),3cos():),0,02(similar to this example). Then
and
SF*dS=DF*(rxr)dA
=020(54cos()sin2()cos()+(,)sin3()sin2())dd
=02[18sin3()cos()+()-cos())sin2()
Verify that the divergence theorem is true for
