The Scalar or Dot Product

The doL product can also be wriLLen as A •B =A(Bcos¢)where B cos¢ is the magnitude of Lhc projection of B on A as shown in Fig. 2.2.

In Fig. 2.3, we can write A • (B +C)=A •D

=AD cos(B-¢) = AD(cosBcos¢+sinBsin¢) But, since B = Dcos¢ and (' = Dsin ¢,

A • ( B + C) =AB cos 8 + AC sin 8 =A •B +A • C B Figure 2.2 A • B =A ( B cos¢)

From the delinition of the doL product, A •B =AB cos¢ and B • A =BA cos¢. lt is therefore clea r that A • B = 8 • A and the comn1utative law holds for the sca lar product. The distributive law A • (B + C) =A • B +A • C also holds and 1s illustrated for the special case shown in Fig. 2.3 where D = B + C.

Figure :L l Ax 8 = C We saw in Chapter 2 that th e doL product of two vectors is a scalar q uanlily that is a tnaxi 1nu1n when lhe two vectors arc parallel and is zero if' lhc two vectors arc normal or perpendicular to each other. Vl/c now discuss another kind of vector 111ultiplication cal le d the 11cctor or cross product, which is a vector quantity that is a inaxi111u111 when the two vectors arc norn1al Lo each other and is zero if they arc pa rallel.

.111d the co1nmutative law does not hold for the cross product.

3.2 Distributive Law for the Cross Product The distributive la'v

3.1 Definition of the Cross Product The vector, or cross product, of two vectors is wr itten as Ax B and reads "A cross B." It is defined Lo be a th ird vector C such that Ax B = C, where the magn itude ore is C=ICl=ABsin¢

Exten d th e fingers of your right hand a long A and then curl then1 toward B as if you were rotating A through ¢ . Your thumb will then point in the direction of C. The vector product

Ax( B+C)=(Ax B)+(AxC)

Ax( B+C)= Ax D = -kADsin(8-¢) = -kAD(sin 8cos¢-cos8sin ¢) 1\111,since B = Dcos¢ and C=Dsin¢,

We now wish to find the co1nponents of C = Ax B in the rectangu lar coord inate system shown in Fig. ~~.;3, if we know the con1poncnts o f A and B. Fron1 the definition of the cross product, if two vectors arc parallel, then r/J = 0, sin= 0, and their cross product is zero. In particular, the cross product of a vector with itse lf is always :Gero. Therefore, ix i = j x j = k x k = O.

As an example of the use of Eq. (5.22), consider the proof of the vector identity

\vhich proves the identity in Eq. (5.25). An important property of the alternating unit tensor is that if it 1nultiplies an expression that is symmetric in two of its subscripts, the result is zero. For example, in the expression euk A, Ak the quantity /11 Ak

Ax(BxC) = (C • A)B-(B • A)C

which proves the identity in Eq. (5.23). As a second example, prove the vector identity

(AxB)xC = B(A • C)-A(B• C)

(5.27)

Now interchange k and j in euk A1 A* on the right side of Eq. (5.27). I his introduces a minus sign so that (5.25) (5.28)

and thus verify (by comparing with Eq. (5.23) that

But this result is identically zero, since this is the only condition 1111dcr which an expression can be equal to the negative of itself Thus, '''" conclude that euk A, Ak 0.

To define a differential volume element in spherical coordinates, ) 1>11 define ne"'' surfaces of constant coordinate variables formed by 111< rcasing each coordinate variable by a differential amount. Thus, the ~11 1rface r =Constant is moved in the direction of increasing r by an 1111ount dr to form the new surface r + dr =Constant as shown in Fig. 7 I 0. Similarly, the surface B =Constant is shifted to fl f. > z = 10; > > [X,Y,Z] = pol2cart(THETA,RHO,Z) X= -3.5355 Y= 3.5355 Z= 10
