Example Question #1 : Divergence Theorem
Find the divergence of the function at
Divergence can be viewed as a measure of the magnitude of a vector field's source or sink at a given point.
To visualize this, picture an open drain in a tub full of water; this drain may represent a 'sink,' and all of the velocities at each specific point in the tub represent the vector field. Close to the drain, the velocity will be greater than a spot farther away from the drain.
What divergence can calculate is what this velocity is at a given point. Again, the magnitude of the vector field.
