8-32. The Gauss Theorem Let r denote the position vector from the origin to a

general point on a closed surface S. Show that

{ 0 , if the origin is outside the closed surface S

4 π, if the origin is inside the closed surface S

Hint: Use the divergence theorem and when the origin is inside S, construct a small

sphere of radius about the origin.

8-33. For F=x^2 zˆe 1 +xyz ˆe 2 +yz ˆe 3 and φ=xyz^2 , calculate ∇(φF)

8-34. For A, B vector fields and f a scalar field, verify each of the following:

(i) curl (fA) = (grad f)×A+fcurl A

(ii) curl (A×B) = A(div B)−B(div A) + (B ·∇ )A−(A·∇ )B

(iii) div (fA) = (grad f)·A+fdiv A

(iv) grad (A×B) = B·curl A−A·curl B

(v) grad (fg ) = fgrad g+ggrad f

(vi) grad (A·B) = (A·∇ )B+ (B·∇ )A+A×curl B+B×curl A
