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
