14. Vector Fields: Helmholtz Theorem For some vector field F, if the divergence = D =  F, and the curl = C =  F then (a) what do you know about  C ? and (b) Can you find F? (a)  C = 0, because  (  F)  0 (b) We can find F iff we have boundary conditions, and require the field to vanish at infinity. Helmholtz: A vector field is uniquely determined by its div and curl (with BC)

15. Vector Fields: Potentials.1 For some vector field F = -  V, find  F : (hint: look at identities inside front cover)  F = 0 → F = -  V Curl-free fields can be written as the gradient of a scalar potential (physically, these are conservative fields, e.g. gravity or electrostatic).

17. Vector Fields: Potentials.2 For some vector field F =  A, find  F :   F = 0 → F =  A Divergence-free fields can be written as the curl of a vector potential (physically, these have closed field lines, e.g. magnetic).
