FAQs on Gauss-Divergence Theorem Stoles Theorem and Green’s to Identity - Mathematics Optional Notes for UPSC

1. What is the Gauss-Divergence Theorem?
Ans. The Gauss-Divergence Theorem, also known as Gauss's Theorem, states that the outward flux of a vector field through a closed surface is equal to the divergence of the vector field over the enclosed volume.
2. Can you explain Stoles Theorem?
Ans. Stoles Theorem, also known as Stokes' Theorem, relates the surface integral of the curl of a vector field over a surface to the line integral of the vector field over the boundary of the surface.
3. How is Green's Identity used in mathematics?
Ans. Green's Identity is a fundamental theorem in vector calculus that relates a double integral over a region to a line integral around the boundary of the region. It is used to establish relationships between line integrals and double integrals in various mathematical applications.
4. What are the practical applications of the Gauss-Divergence Theorem?
Ans. The Gauss-Divergence Theorem has various practical applications in physics and engineering, such as fluid dynamics, electromagnetism, and heat transfer. It is used to analyze the flow of fluids, the distribution of electric fields, and the transfer of heat in different systems.
5. How can one apply Stokes' Theorem in real-life situations?
Ans. Stokes' Theorem is used in various real-life situations, such as in electromagnetic theory to calculate the circulation of electric and magnetic fields around closed loops. It is also applied in fluid dynamics to analyze the circulation of fluid flow around closed paths.
