Any other open surface whose opening is defined by a closed path that is the circle p=a (center at the origin)will give the same result. 1.11 CONCLUDING REMARKS Vecrdion and multiplication were briefly reviewed in the first part of this chapter.This material should be familiar to the engineering student.Next,the three coordinate systems that are used exclusively in this text were introduced and related. The concepts of circulation (line integrals)and flux were defined and given physical meaning by means of familiar examples.The vector operations of diver- gence,gradient,and curl that we will have much use for in the following chapters, were introduced and explained. There are many vector identities that appear in the study of vector analysis.and the two most important of these that we will use were introduced.The divergence theorem(the Gauss integral theorem)and the Stokes theorem are fundamental to field theory.The derivation of these theorems was presented.A summary of vector relations is listed on the inside front and back covers
