Past exam of the mathematics course of the University of Cambridge / 2025 / ia / Paper 3 / 9A / a / Solution

The divergence theorem is

\iint_{\partial V} F \cdot n d S = ∭_{V} \nabla \cdot F d V

. Here

\nabla \cdot F = 3 z + 2 yz

. The

y

term integrates to zero by symmetry, while the ellipse has area

π / ab

. Hence the flux is

\frac{π}{ab} \int_{0}^{3} 3 z d z = \frac{27 π}{2 ab} .
