Homework Statement



∫∫∫∇.Fdv over x2+y2+z2≤25

F= (x2+y2+z2)(xi+yj+zk)

Homework Equations



∫∫∫∇.Fdv = ∫∫ F.n dσ

n=∇g/|∇g|

The Attempt at a Solution



g(x,y,z)=x2+y2+z2-25

taking the surface integral and replacing all
(x2+y2+z2) with 25
i got
125 * ∫∫ dσ = 12500π

But the answer key says it is 100π
I think i am making a mistake with numbers but, i couldn't find what is wrong.

Thanks
