Additional Problems.
The following problems are for enthusiasts. These problems are not essential.
- Let \(a\) and \(b\) be constants with \(a > b > 0.\) Find the net ourward flux of the field \[\mathbf{F} = \frac{x\,\mathbf{i} + y\,\mathbf{j} + z\,\mathbf{k}}{\rho^3} ,\,\, \rho=\sqrt{x^2+ y^2 + z^2} \] across the boundary of the region \(b \le \rho \le a.\)
- The electric field created by a point charge \(q\) located at the origin is \[\mathbf{E}(x,\,y,\,z) = \frac{q}{4\pi\epsilon_0} \mathbf{F}(x,\,y,\,z),\] where \((x,\,y,\,z)\) is the location of the point, \(\mathbf{F}\) is given in the previous problem and \(\epsilon_0\) is a physical constant. Show that the outward flux of \(\mathbf{E}\) across any closed surface \(S\) that encloses the origin and to which the Divergence Theorem applies is \(q/\epsilon_0 ,\) by using the result of the previous problem.
- Suppose that \(f\) and \(g\) are scalar functions with continuous first- and second-order partial derivatives throughout a region \(D\) that is bounded by a closed piecewise smooth surface \(S.\) Show that \[\iint_S f \nabla g \cdot \mathbf{n} \,d\sigma = \iiint_D ( f \nabla ^2 g + \nabla f \cdot \nabla g) dV .\tag{*}\] This equation is called Green's first formula.
- Interchange \(f\) and \(g\) in equation (*) of the previous problem to obtain a similar formula. Then subtract the formula from (*) to show that \[\iint_S (f\nabla g - g\nabla f) \cdot \mathbf{n} \,d\sigma = \iiint_D ( f\nabla^2 g - g\nabla^2 f) dV. \] This equation is called Green's second formula.
- If \(\mathbf{E}(t,\,x,\,y,\,z)\) and \(\mathbf{B}(t,\,x,\,y,\,z)\) represent the electric and magnetic fields at point \((x,\,y,\,z)\) at time \(t,\) a basic principle of electromagnetic theory says that \(\nabla \times \mathbf{E} = - \partial\mathbf{B} / \partial t.\) In this expression \(\nabla \times \mathbf{E}\) is computed with \(t\) held fixed and \(\partial\mathbf{B} / \partial t\) is calculated with \((x,\,y,\,z)\) fixed. Use Stoke's Theorem to derive Faraday's law \[\oint_C \mathbf{E} \cdot d\mathbf{r} = - \frac{\partial}{\partial t} \iint_S \mathbf{B} \cdot \mathbf{n} \,d\sigma ,\] where \(C\) represents a wire loop through which current flows counterclockwise with respect to the surface's unit normal \(\mathbf{n},\) giving rise to the voltage \[\oint_C \mathbf{E}\cdot d\mathbf{r}\] around \(C.\) The surface integral on the right side of the equation is called the magnetic flux, and \(S\) is any oriented surface with boundary \(C.\)
- Let \[\mathbf{F} = - \frac{GmM}{\lvert\mathbf{r}\rvert^3}\mathbf{r}\] be the gravitional force field defined for \(\mathbf{r} \ne \mathbf{0}.\) Use Gauss's law to show that there is no continuously differentiable vector field \(\mathbf{H}\) satisfying \(\mathbf{F} = \nabla \times \mathbf{H}.\)
- Let \(S\) be an oriented surface parametrized by \(\mathbf{r}(u,\,v).\) Define the notation \(d\vec{\sigma} = \mathbf{r}_u \,du \times \mathbf{r}_v\,dv\) so that \(d\vec{\sigma}\) is a vector normal to the surface. Also, the magnitude \(d\sigma = \lvert d\vec{\sigma}\rvert\) is the element of surface area. Derive the identity \[d\vec{\sigma} = (EG -F^2 )^{1/2} \,du\,dv\] where \[E = \lvert \mathbf{r}_u \rvert^2, \,\,\, F = \mathbf{r}_u \cdot \mathbf{r}_v \,\,\, \text{and}\,\,\, G = \lvert\mathbf{r}_v\rvert^2 .\]
- Show that the volume \(V\) of a region \(D\) in space enclosed by the oriented surface \(S\) with outward normal \(\mathbf{n}\) satisfies the identity \[V = \frac{1}{3} \iint_S \mathbf{r} \cdot \mathbf{n} \,d\sigma,\] where \(\mathbf{r}\) is the position vector of the point \((x,\,y,\,z)\) in \(D.\)
