(x, y, z), by
Sph = {(x, y, z) : (x − xo)² + (y − yo)² + (z − zo)² = a²},
where a, xo, yo and zo are constants, and show that it can be parameterized by
r(0,0) = (xo + a sin cos , yo + a sin sind, zo + a cos 0), giving the ranges of
the parameters and p.
(b) For the surface Sph, defined in part (a), show that a vector surface element is given
by ds = a sin 0 [r - (To, yo, 2o)] dedo, and justify the sign convention associated
with this normal vector. Hence evaluate the flux

of the vector field G = (1,0, z²) out of the surface.
(c) Using your answer to part (b), evaluate L = lima-03f/(4πa³).
(d) State the (coordinate-invariant) integral form of the definition of divergence. By
referring to your answer to part (c), demonstrate that it is consistent with the
Cartesian definition of divergence in this case.
(e) By applying the Divergence Theorem to the vector field u = ow, where is an
arbitrary differentiable scalar field and w is a constant vector, derive the identity
