Stokes' Theorm and Divergence Theorem - Example 2

In mathematics, the divergence theorem is a theorem about vector fields. It states that the divergence of a vector field is zero in a region if and only if the field is the gradient of a scalar field. The theorem is named for the mathematician George Green, who stated it in 1828. The theorem is also known as the Kelvin–Stokes theorem, after William Thomson, 1st Baron Kelvin (Lord Kelvin) and George Gabriel Stokes.
