Question

State and prove stokes theorem. Give its importance.

Answer 1

Stokes' theorem is also used for the interpretation of curl of a vector field. This theorem is quite often used in physics, especially in electromagnetism. Stokes' theorem and its generalized form are very important in finding line integral of some particular curve and also in determining the curl of a bounded surface

STOKES LAW

• The law that the force that retards a sphere moving through a viscous fluid is directly proportional to the velocity of the sphere, the radius of the sphere, and the viscosity of the fluid. the law that the frequency of luminescence induced by radiation is usually less than the frequency of the radiation.

According to this law F = 6πrηv, where

• r is the radius of the ball
• v is its velocity
• η is the viscosity of the medium.
