VECTOR CALCULUS

About this Course

Course Description

This course consists of two main topics which are vector-valued functions and vector calculus. It provides students with the basic knowledge of vector-valued functions such as domain, limit and continuity, derivatives and integrals and some applications in the study of motion. In vector calculus, this course include subtopics on conservative vector field, line integrals, independent of path, work done, circulation and flux. In addition to that the three fundamental of vector calculus, namely Green's Theorem, divergence theorem and Stokes' Theorem will also be discussed.

Course Learning Outcomes

1 ) Present the term paper on Green’s Theorem, Divergence Theorem and Stokes’ Theorem
2 ) Prepare a short term paper on Green’s Theorem, Divergence Theorem and Stokes’ Theorem
3 ) Explain the calculus of vector functions and vector fields including solving practical problems involving motion and use of Green’s Theorem, Divergence Theorem and Stokes’ Theorem.

 Frequently Asked Questions

A1 : Yes, but with slight difficulties. You have to be prepared to go back and review course material from MAT 491 (Calculus 3), especially on multiple integrals.

A2 : No, but some suggested websites and YouTube videos are posted together with the corresponding module in learning activities.
