Answer

$0$

Work Step by Step

As we know that $div F=\dfrac{\partial A}{\partial x}i+\dfrac{\partial B}{\partial y}j+\dfrac{\partial C}{\partial z}k$ Now, we have $div F=\dfrac{\partial}{\partial x}[0]+\dfrac{\partial}{\partial y} [0]+\dfrac{\partial}{\partial z} [(a^2-x^2-y^2)]$ This implies that $div F=0$
