Inside the unit ball, . On its sphere, , so the jump to zero outside adds no surface divergence. The field therefore satisfies the required weak derivative condition.
By reflection symmetry, integrals of over the ball vanish. Rotational symmetry and spherical coordinates give
Hence the left side is . Meanwhile , so its integral is . Therefore
exactly the same vector.
