Section 6.4 Example: Flux Across a Surface
We've seen the Flux Across a Curve back in Section 2.7. That was true for 2D vector fields. Now we upgrade to 3D vector fields and Flux Across a Surface. Before watching, can you guess how we will define this based on analogy with the 2D case?
Learning Objectives:
Compute the Flux across a surface via
- Deciding to describe the surface parametrically or implicitly
- Computing out the components of the formula
- Evaluating the resulting double integral
