Vector Fields and Differential Operators

The three differential operators — gradient, divergence, curl — measure different aspects of how a field varies locally.

WHAT STUDENTS WILL LEARN
✓Define and visualize vector fields
✓Compute gradient, divergence, and curl
✓Interpret divergence as source density and curl as rotation
✓Identify irrotational and solenoidal fields
