Step 1
The divergence of the function F is:
F=Px+Qy+Rz
÷F=x(x2)+y(0)+z(z2)
=2x+2z
Step 2
By the divergence theorem convert the surface integral into a triple integral:
SPdydz+Qdxdz+Rdxdy=V(Px+Qy+Rz)dxdydx
=V(2x+2z)dxdydz
Step 3
V(2x+2z)dxdydz=11dx33dy02(2x+2z)dz
=211dx33dy02(x+z)dz
=211dx33dy[(xz+z22)02]
=211dx33(2x+2)dy
=411dx[(xy+y)33]
=411dx[(3x+3)(3x3)]
