Fields and Waves Lesson 2.1 VECTORS and VECTOR CALCULUS Darryl Michael/GE CRD
VECTORS Today’s Class will focus on: • vectors - description in 3 coordinate systems • vector operations - DOT & CROSS PRODUCT • vector calculus - AREA and VOLUME INTEGRALS
z y x VECTOR NOTATION VECTOR NOTATION: Rectangular or Cartesian Coordinate System Dot Product (SCALAR) Cross Product (VECTOR) Magnitude of vector
Choice is based on symmetry of problem VECTOR REPRESENTATION 3 PRIMARY COORDINATE SYSTEMS: • RECTANGULAR • CYLINDRICAL • SPHERICAL Examples: Sheets - RECTANGULAR Wires/Cables - CYLINDRICAL Spheres - SPHERICAL
z r P z x f y VECTOR REPRESENTATION: CYLINDRICAL COORDINATES UNIT VECTORS: Cylindrical representation uses: r ,f , z Dot Product (SCALAR)
z P q r x f y VECTOR REPRESENTATION: SPHERICAL COORDINATES UNIT VECTORS: Spherical representation uses: r ,q , f Dot Product (SCALAR)
z y x VECTOR REPRESENTATION: UNIT VECTORS Rectangular Coordinate System Unit Vector Representation for Rectangular Coordinate System The Unit Vectors imply : Points in the direction of increasing x Points in the direction of increasing y Points in the direction of increasing z
z r P z f x y VECTOR REPRESENTATION: UNIT VECTORS Cylindrical Coordinate System The Unit Vectors imply : Points in the direction of increasing r Points in the direction of increasing j Points in the direction of increasing z
z P q r f y x VECTOR REPRESENTATION: UNIT VECTORS Spherical Coordinate System The Unit Vectors imply : Points in the direction of increasing r Points in the direction of increasing q Points in the direction of increasing j
Do Problem 1 VECTOR REPRESENTATION: UNIT VECTORS Summary RECTANGULAR Coordinate Systems CYLINDRICAL Coordinate Systems SPHERICAL Coordinate Systems NOTE THE ORDER! r,f, z r,q ,f Note: We do not emphasize transformations between coordinate systems
Unit is in “meters” y df r x METRIC COEFFICIENTS 1. Rectangular Coordinates: When you move a small amount in x-direction, the distance is dx In a similar fashion, you generate dy and dz ( dx, dy, dz ) Generate: 2. Cylindrical Coordinates: Differential Distances: Distance = r df ( dr, rdf, dz )
z P q r r sinq f y x y df x METRIC COEFFICIENTS 3. Spherical Coordinates: Differential Distances: Distance = r sinq df ( dr, rdq, r sinq df )
