Stokes' theorem is the remarkable statement that the line integral of F along C is equal to the flux integral of the curl of F through the surface S, which we know is the surface integral of the normal component of the curl along the surface S.
Stokes' sætning er den opsigtsvækkende påstand at integralet af F langs randkurven, C er lig fluxintegralet af F's rotation gennem fladen, S som vi ved, er lig fladeintegralet af normalkomponenten af rotationen - - hen over fladen, S.
