I am trying to create a picture of a sphere with Normal vectors on the
surface to demonstrate the Divergence Theorum. I am quite new to Mathematica
and I was wondering if it could be done.
I have created the sphere using:
ParametricPlot3D[{Sin[x]*Cos[y],Sin[x]*Sin[y],Cos[x]},{x,0,Pi},{y,0,2*Pi}]
I am hoping to be able to use PlotVectorField3D to create a vector field and
overlay in on the image using Photoshop where I could remove the vector
which should not be in view. I'm not sure how to plot the field desired.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Luke
