<strong>The</strong> Divergence:<br />

Del operator act on a <strong>vector</strong> function , via the dot product.<br />

∙V ∙ <br />

<strong>The</strong> result is scalar.<br />

∙V <br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<strong>The</strong> divergence is measure, how much the <strong>vector</strong> spreads out.<br />

Positive Divergence<br />

Zero Divergence<br />

Example:<br />

Calculate the divergence <strong>of</strong> the following <strong>vector</strong> functions:<br />

a/ <br />
