Calculating Surface Integrals Using the Divergence Theorem

[liishii]

Homework Statement

Evaluate the double integral over M (F \circ dS) where M is the surface of the sphere of radius 3 centered around the origin. (Sorry! I couldn't figure out how to use math symbols!)

Homework Equations

double integral(F\bulletdS)=triple integral (\nabla\bullet F)dV due to the divergence thm.

The Attempt at a Solution

I used the divergence theorem and got triple int(3y^2+3x^2+3z^2) dx dy dz with the limits z=-3 to 3, y=-\sqrt{}3-z^2 to \sqrt{}3-z^2 , x=-\sqrt{}3-y^2-z^2 to \sqrt{}3-y^2-z^2 . I plugged this into wolfram alpha but the answer i get isn't the right answer...

THanks in advance for the help!

Greetings! Did you try using spherical coordinates? This will make the computation much easier, as well as make any mistakes easy to identify.
