Mathematical background :
The triple integration of a function given by f inside a region R is
represented
as
Here dV = dx dy dz
To solve a triple integration we integrate one by one with respect to a
particular variable one at a time (like we do for partial differentiation)
keeping
the other variables constant
Output :
inputs:
Conclusion :
Hence we found out using MATLAB that the volume of the given
sphere
is 36*pi cubic units.
Experiment 5B Divergence ,Curl and Gradient and
visualisation of vector field
Aim :
To find the volume bounded by the curve x2+2y2+z=16 , the
planes
x=2 , y=2 and the three coordinate plane
Mathematical background :
A vector field is an assignment of a vector to each point in a subset of
space.
A vector field in the plane can be visualised as a collection of arrows with
a
given magnitude and direction, each attached to a point in the plane.
Given below is an example of a vector field
The divergence of a vector field simply measures how much the flow is
expanding at a given point. It does not indicate in which direction the
expansion is occuring. Hence (in contrast to the curl of a vector field),
the divergence is a scalar. Divergence of a vector v is given b by
In vector calculus, the curl is a vector operator that describes the
infinitesimal
circulation of a vector field in three-dimensional Euclidean space
Conclusion :
Hence we successfully found the divergence and curl of the given
vector field and visualised that vector field and the curl using
MATLAB.
