      As I read this, all of the connotations of these words arranged this way is almost absurd in what it says:
      It starts with the hyperbolic “very essence of clarity.”
      What do you or anyone else generally assume about someone who is a bus driver? If it isn’t that why is it relevant enough to mention?
      In addition to above, would we assume that any random or even average bus driver would have heard of, knows or thought about GDT?

I came from the wrong side of the tracks and did mathematics and upset a few with my up front, no respect, questioning. Luckily there were enough Profs around to shield me from expulsion for being rude in response to a ridiculous answer.

    the thumbnail does a really good job of relating the divergence integral with the closed loop one
    i imagine the cubes within the larger cube to represent the infinitesimal points at which you test divergence (it is based off of a derivative after all), and if you just project the surface faces of the infinitesimals to the larger box you get the flux thru the entire surface

    @eterty8335 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    so my guess is that from the perspective of the volume integral, you're splitting the enclosed volume into like infitesimally small cubes, and when you're adding them up, every two adjacent cubes share one face, and both bring it up into the computations but with opposite effects (facing opposite directions), so the inner stuff all gets cancelled out and you end up only with the outer faces, which is just the surface?

    • @greatgrumble
      @greatgrumble ปีที่แล้ว

      You don't even need to got that far. The volume integral sums up the sources and sinks that "create" positive and negative flux. Inside that volume. The remaining flux has to flow out of (or into respectively) the volume.
      Picture each source as a tap and each sink as a drain. If all taps combined carry more water than the capacity of all drains combined, the amount of water increases (And of course the mathematical drain acts as a negative tap so this example also works for a decrease).
