Conservative vector fields, revisited
A continuous vector field F on an open subset D in R n^ is conservative if and only if F = rf.
True or False? A True. B False.
Curl and gradient
For any function f on an open subset D in R 3 with continuous second order partial derivatives, curl(rf ) = 0.
True or False? A True. B False.
Curl and gradient
The vector field F = (^) (x 2 +^1 y 2 ) 3 / 2 h y , x, 0 i is conservative.
True or False? A True. B False.
The curl-div story
