This video tutorial introduces the divergence theorem, which relates the total divergence of a vector field in a solid region to the total flow across its boundary surface. The video explains the mathematical formulation of the theorem and provides an example problem involving a vector field and a box-shaped surface. The solution involves calculating the flux using triple integrals and demonstrates the net outward flow from the box. The video concludes with a preview of the next part.
