A small sphere of radius 0.1 surrounds the point (3, 5, −1). The flux of a vector field G into this sphere is 0.00002π. Estimate div G at the point (3, 5, −1). (Round your answer to three decimal places.) div G=

@ganeshie8 do I do the same here flux/volume?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

guess not :/

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Yep!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well I got .015 but I got it wrong

OpenStudy (sidsiddhartha):

\[Div F=\frac{ flux~out~of~the~region }{ volume}\] u should use this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

.00002pi/((4/3)pi(.1)^3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i did

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got .015 but its marking it wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ganeshie8

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

try -0.015

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

since the flux given was into the sphere, the point was assumed to be a sink

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh yeah its negative

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks @ganeshie8
