Kulkarni, Distinguished Professor, PES University, Bengaluru, INDIA. z Position vectors and unit vectors in Cartesian coordinates r = x + y + z, z r r = x ax + y ay + z az , y y where x = x ax , y = y ay , z = z az , x (Vector quantities are in bold letters) x r, x, y, z are position vectors, which originate from origin; az ay ax, ay, az are unit vectors in x, y, z directions ax Lecture notes of Dr. Raghavendra G. Kulkarni, Distinguished Professor, PES University, Bengaluru, INDIA. Distance vectors in Cartesian coordinates Let P (x1, y1, z1) and Q (x2, y2, z2) be two points in Cartesian z coordinate system. The position vectors of P and Q are RPQ Q rP = x1 ax + y1 ay + z1 az and rQ = x2 ax + y2 ay + z2 az P rP rQ and the distance vector starting from P to Q is RPQ y RPQ = rQ – rP = (x2 - x1)ax + (y2 - y1)ay + (z2 - z1)az x Example: Find distance vector, RPQ, if the points are P(1, 2 , 3) and Q(2, -2, 1) Solution: rP = 1 ax + 2 ay + 3 az , rQ = 2 ax - 2 ay + 1 az RPQ = rQ – rP = ax – 4 ay – 2 az Lecture notes of Dr. Raghavendra G. Kulkarni, Distinguished Professor, PES University, Bengaluru, INDIA. Magnitude of a vector, unit vector Let a vector be: B = a x Bx + a y By + a z Bz The magnitude of B is: 𝑩 = 𝐵𝑥 2 + 𝐵𝑦 2 + 𝐵𝑧 2 The unit vector in the direction of B is: B / |B|, 𝑩 𝒂𝐵 = 𝐵𝑥 2 + 𝐵𝑦 2 + 𝐵𝑧 2 Lecture notes of Dr. Raghavendra G. Kulkarni, Distinguished Professor, PES University, Bengaluru, INDIA. Example: Specify the unit vector extending from the origin toward the point G (2, -2, -1). Solution: The vector extending from the origin to the point G, G = 2ax – 2ay – az The magnitude of G is, |G| = 4 + 4 + 1 = 3 The desired unit vector of G is, 𝑮 2 2 1 𝒂𝐺 = = 𝒂𝑥 − 𝒂𝑦 − 𝐚z |𝑮| 3 3 3 Lecture notes of Dr. Raghavendra G. Kulkarni, Distinguished Professor, PES University, Bengaluru, INDIA. DOT product and its application A DOT product of two vectors: 𝑨 ∙ 𝑩 = 𝑨 𝑩 cos 𝜃𝐴𝐵 The angle, 𝜃𝐴𝐵 , is the smaller angle between A and B. Note that when 𝜃𝐴𝐵 is 90 ̊ the DOT product vanishes. θAB B If A = ax Ax + ay Ay + az Az and B = a x Bx + a y By + a z Bz 𝑨 ∙ 𝑩 = (ax Ax + ay Ay + az Az) ∙ (ax Bx + ay By + az Bz) B Since ax ∙ ax = 1, ax ∙ ay = 0, ax ∙ az = 0, and so on, 𝑨 ∙ 𝑩 = AxBx + AyBy + AzBz = A scalar quantity θBN aN Components of a vector in given direction: The magnitude of vector B (or the scalar component) in the direction of unit vector aN |B|cos θBN is given by the DOT product, B · aN = |B| cos θBN and the component vector of B in the direction of aN is: (B · aN) aN Lecture notes of Dr. Raghavendra G. Kulkarni, Distinguished Professor, PES University, Bengaluru, INDIA. The cross product of two vectors The cross product of two vectors, A and B, is defined as, 𝑨 × 𝑩 = 𝒂𝑁 𝑨 |𝑩| sin 𝜃𝐴𝐵 A 𝜃𝐴𝐵 where aN is the unit vector normal to the plane containing the B vectors A and B, in the direction of motion of right-hand screw from A to B. When 𝜃𝐴𝐵 is zero, the cross product vanishes. So, ax × ax = 0, ax × ay = az, ax × az = − ay, and so on. aN If A = ax Ax + ay Ay + az Az and B = ax Bx + ay By + az Bz , then the cross product can be determined as, 𝒂𝑥 𝒂𝑦 𝒂𝑧 𝑨 × 𝑩 = 𝐴𝑥 𝐴𝑦 𝐴𝑧 𝐵𝑥 𝐵𝑦 𝐵𝑧 Lecture notes of Dr. Raghavendra G. Kulkarni, Distinguished Professor, PES University, Bengaluru, INDIA. Examples using DOT product and cross product Example 1: Consider a vector, G = y ax – 2.5 x ay + 3 az , and the point Q(4, 5, 2). Find G at Q 1 The scalar component of G at Q in the direction of 𝒂𝑁 = (2𝒂𝑥 + 𝒂𝑦 − 2𝒂𝑧 ) 3 The vector component of G at Q in the direction of 𝒂𝑁 The angle between G at Q and 𝒂𝑁 Solution: G at Q is: G(Q) = 5 ax – 10 ay + 3 az , The scalar component of G at Q in the direction of 𝒂𝑁 is 1 1 G(Q) · 𝒂𝑁 = (5 ax – 10 ay + 3 az) ∙ (2𝒂𝑥 + 𝒂𝑦 − 2𝒂𝑧 ) = 10 − 10 − 6 = −2 3 3 The vector component of G at Q in the direction of 𝒂𝑁 −2 [G(Q) · 𝒂𝑁 ] 𝒂𝑁 = (2𝒂𝑥 + 𝒂𝑦 − 2𝒂𝑧 ) 3 Lecture notes of Dr. Raghavendra G. Kulkarni, Distinguished Professor, PES University, Bengaluru, INDIA. The angle between G at Q and 𝒂𝑁 is obtained from G(Q) · 𝒂𝑁 = |G(Q)| cos 𝜃, G(Q) · 𝒂𝑁 cos 𝜃 = |G(Q)| −2 The magnitude of G at Q is: |G(Q)| = 25 + 100 + 9 = 134 , cos 𝜃 = 134 and hence 𝜃= 99.9.̊ Let us use cross product also to determine the angle. 1 G(Q) × 𝒂𝑁 = (17𝒂𝑥 + 16𝒂𝑦 + 25𝒂𝑧 ) 3 The magnitude is |G(Q) × 𝒂𝑁 |= 11.402, |G(Q)×𝒂𝑁 | sin 𝜃 = = 0.985 , |G(Q)||𝒂𝑁 | The angle 𝜃= 80.1 ̊, 99.9 ̊, so the correct angle is the common angle, 𝜃= 99.9 ̊. Lecture notes of Dr. Raghavendra G. Kulkarni, Distinguished Professor, PES University, Bengaluru, INDIA. Examples using DOT product and cross product Example 2: Find the cross product of two vectors, A = 2 ax – 3 ay + az and B = – 4 ax – 2 ay + 5 az and determine the angle between them. 𝒂𝑥 𝒂𝑦 𝒂𝑧 𝑨 × 𝑩 = 2 – 3 1 = −13𝑎𝑥 − 14𝑎𝑦 − 16𝑎𝑧 –4 –2 5 To find the angle between the vectors, the magnitudes of the two vectors, and the magnitude of their resultant cross product, have to be determined. The magnitude of A is 𝑨 = 4 + 9 + 1 = 14 and that of B is 𝑩 = 16 + 4 + 25 = 45. Lecture notes of Dr. Raghavendra G. Kulkarni, Distinguished Professor, PES University, Bengaluru, INDIA. The magnitude of A X B is 𝑨 × 𝑩 = 169 + 196 + 256 = 621. Hence, 𝑨×𝑩 621 sin 𝜃𝐴𝐵 = = = 0.993, so, 𝜃𝐴𝐵 = 83.13 ̊, 96.87 ̊ 𝑨 𝑩 630 Note that two angles have emerged, and to determine the correct angle, we use the DOT product. 𝑨 ∙ 𝑩 = 2𝒂𝑥 − 3𝒂𝑦 + 𝒂𝒛 ∙ −4𝒂𝑥 − 2𝒂𝑦 + 5𝒂𝒛 = 3 𝑨∙𝑩 𝜃𝐴𝐵 = cos −1 = cos −1 0.1195 = 83.13° 𝑨 |𝑩| Hence the common angle is, 83.13 ,̊ which is the correct angle. Lecture notes of Dr. Raghavendra G.

Kulkarni, Distinguished Professor, PES University, Bengaluru, INDIA. Circular cylindrical coordinate system Example: Transform the vector 𝑩 = 𝑦𝒂𝑥 − 𝑥𝒂𝑦 + 𝑧𝒂𝒛 into cylindrical coordinates. Solution: In cylindrical coordinates, 𝑩 = 𝐵𝜌𝒂𝜌 + 𝐵𝜑𝒂𝜑 + 𝐵𝑧𝒂𝑧 , where 𝐵𝜌 , 𝐵𝜑, and 𝐵𝑧 are scalar components of B in ρ, φ, and z directions, which are to be determined. 𝐵𝜌 = 𝑩 ∙ 𝒂𝜌 = 𝑦𝒂𝑥 − 𝑥𝒂𝑦 + 𝑧𝒂𝒛 ∙ 𝒂𝜌 = 𝑦 𝒂𝑥 ∙ 𝑎𝜌 − 𝑥 𝒂𝑦 ∙ 𝒂𝜌 = 𝑦 cos 𝜑 − 𝑥 sin 𝜑 = 𝜌 sin 𝜑 cos 𝜑 − 𝜌 cos 𝜑 sin 𝜑 = 0 𝐵𝜑 = 𝑩 ∙ 𝒂𝜑 = 𝑦𝒂𝑥 − 𝑥𝒂𝑦 + 𝑧𝒂𝒛 ∙ 𝒂𝜑 = 𝑦 𝒂𝑥 ∙ 𝒂𝜑 − 𝑥 𝒂𝑦 ∙ 𝒂𝜑 = −𝑦 sin 𝜑 − 𝑥 cos 𝜑 = −𝜌𝑠𝑖𝑛2 𝜑 − 𝜌𝑐𝑜𝑠 2 𝜑 = −𝜌 Hence B in cylindrical coordinates is: 𝑩 = −𝜌𝒂𝜑 + 𝑧𝒂𝑧 Lecture notes of Dr. Raghavendra G. Kulkarni, Distinguished Professor, PES University, Bengaluru, INDIA. Spherical coordinate system z z’ ar In spherical coordinates, the point P in space is defined by the coordinates, r, θ, aφ and φ. P (r, θ, φ) r The distance OP from origin is r. The angle made by the line OP with z-axis is θ. The θ θ aθ angle made by the projection of OP on xy- plane with x-axis is φ. O y Note that the unit vectors, ar a𝜃 and aφ φ are mutually perpendicular. x Lecture notes of Dr. Raghavendra G. Kulkarni, Distinguished Professor, PES University, Bengaluru, INDIA. Spherical coordinate system The direction of ar is the direction of z z’ ar position vector r. The direction of a𝜃 is that of perpendicular to OP in the increasing side aφ of θ. The direction of aφ is that of normal to P (r, θ, φ) the plane formed by z-axis and OP. Notice r that both ar and a𝜃 are in this plane (and P’ they are mutually perpendicular). θ θ aθ In order to transform a vector given in spherical coordinates to vector in cartesian O φ y coordinates, one should know the DOT O’ products between unit vectors in one x system to that in the other system. Lecture notes of Dr. Raghavendra G. Kulkarni, Distinguished Professor, PES University, Bengaluru, INDIA. Spherical coordinate system DOT product, ar · ax : Consider the plane z formed by z-axis and the line P’O”. Unit Z’ ar vectors ar , a𝜃 are in this plane, while aφ is θ perpendicular to the plane. aφ P Notice that angle between ar and PZ’ is θ, so angle between ar and PP’ is 90 – θ (since PZ’ P’ θ θ and PP’ are perpendicular). Hence projection aθ of ar on PP’ is cos(90 – θ), which is sin(θ). O Since PP’ is parallel to OO”, projection of ar y on OO” is also sin(θ). As OO” makes an angle φ O’ φ with x-axis, further projection on x-axis will x O” be sin(θ) cos(φ), so, ar · ax = sin(θ) cos(φ) Lecture notes of Dr. Raghavendra G. Kulkarni, Distinguished Professor, PES University, Bengaluru, INDIA. Spherical coordinate system DOT products, ar · ay ; ar · az z Z’ ar We know from the previous slide that projection of ar on OO” is sin(θ). As OO” aφ makes an angle 90 – φ with y-axis, further P projection on y-axis will be sin(θ) cos(90 – φ). Thus, P’ ar · ay = sin(θ) sin(φ) θ θ aθ Since angle between ar and az is θ, we get, O y ar · az = cos(θ) φ O’ x O” Lecture notes of Dr. Raghavendra G. Kulkarni, Distinguished Professor, PES University, Bengaluru, INDIA. Spherical coordinate system DOT product, a𝜃 · ax z Z’ ar The angle between ar and a𝜃 (so OP and a𝜃 ) is 𝜃 90 ;̊ so the angle between a𝜃 and PO’ is 90 – θ. aφ Since PO’ and PP’ are perpendicular, the angle P between aθ and PP’ is θ. Hence projection of aθ on PP’ is cos(θ). 𝜃 P’ 𝜃 𝜃 aθ Since PP’ is parallel to OO”, projection of a𝜃 on OO” is also cos(θ). As OO” makes an angle φ O with x-axis, further projection on x-axis will be y cos(θ) cos(φ), Thus, φ O’ x O” a𝜃 · ax = cos(θ) cos(φ) Lecture notes of Dr. Raghavendra G. Kulkarni, Distinguished Professor, PES University, Bengaluru, INDIA. Spherical coordinate system DOT products, a𝜃 · ay and a𝜃 · az z Z’ ar From the earlier discussion, we know that θ projection of a𝜃 on OO” is cos(θ). As OO” makes aφ an angle 90 – φ with y-axis, further projection on P y-axis will be cos(θ) cos(90 – φ), Thus, θ P’ a𝜃 · ay = cos(θ) sin(φ) θ θ aθ The angle between aθ and az is 90 + θ; hence O y a𝜃 · az = cos(90 + θ) = – sin(θ) φ O’ x O” Lecture notes of Dr. Raghavendra G. Kulkarni, Distinguished Professor, PES University, Bengaluru, INDIA. Spherical coordinate system DOT products, a∅ · ax ; a∅ · ay ; a∅ · az z We know that a∅ is perpendicular to the plane Z’ ar formed by z-axis the line OP. This plane makes θ angle φ with x-axis. So the angle between a∅ and aφ ax is 90 + φ. Therefore, P a∅ · ax = cos(90 + φ) = – sin(φ) θ P’ θ θ aθ Since the angle between a∅ and ax is 90 + φ, the angle between a∅ and ay is φ. Therefore, O y a∅ · ay = cos(φ) φ O’ x O” Since a∅ is perpendicular to az the DOT product, a∅ · az = 0. Lecture notes of Dr. Raghavendra G. Kulkarni, Distinguished Professor, PES University, Bengaluru, INDIA. Spherical coordinate system Scalar transformation of coordinates: Note that OO’ = QP = r sin(θ), and z z’ ar x = OO’ cos(φ), hence x = r sin(θ) cos(φ) Q aφ Similarly, y = OO’ sin(φ), hence P y = r sin(θ) sin(φ), Note that z = OQ = r cos(θ). Using these r relations, the reverse transformations are, θ θ aθ 𝑟= 𝑥2 + 𝑦2 + 𝑧2 O 𝑧 φ y 𝜃= cos −1 O’ 𝑥 2 +𝑦 2 +𝑧 2 x 𝑦 𝜑 = tan−1 𝑥 Lecture notes of Dr. Raghavendra G.

Solution: First we express 𝑮 = 𝐺𝑟 𝒂𝑟 + 𝐺𝜃 𝒂𝜃 + 𝐺𝜑 𝒂𝜑 , where 𝐺𝑟 = 𝑮 ∙ 𝒂𝑟 , 𝐺𝜃 = 𝑮 ∙ 𝒂𝜃 , 𝐺∅ = 𝑮 ∙ 𝒂∅ 𝑥𝑧 𝑥𝑧 𝐺𝑟 = 𝒂𝑥 ∙ 𝒂𝑟 = sin 𝜃 cos 𝜑 𝑦 𝑦 Using coordinate transformations, 𝑥 = 𝑟 sin 𝜃 cos ∅ , 𝑦 = 𝑟 sin 𝜃 sin ∅, 𝑧 = 𝑟 cos 𝜃, 𝑐𝑜𝑠 2 ∅ 𝐺𝑟 = 𝑟 sin 𝜃 cos 𝜃 sin ∅ 2 𝑥𝑧 𝑥𝑧 2 𝑐𝑜𝑠 ∅ 𝐺𝜃 = 𝒂𝑥 ∙ 𝒂𝜃 = cos 𝜃 cos ∅ = 𝑟 𝑐𝑜𝑠 𝜃 𝑦 𝑦 sin ∅ 𝑥𝑧 𝑥𝑧 𝐺∅ = 𝒂𝑥 ∙ 𝒂∅ = (− sin ∅) = −𝑟 cos 𝜃 cos ∅ 𝑦 𝑦 Lecture notes of Dr. Raghavendra G. Kulkarni, Distinguished Professor, PES University, Bengaluru, INDIA. Introducing the concept of the ‘Del’ operation Consider a scalar function, f (x, y, z), in space. Let an incremental change in f be df in an incremental length, dl, where the vector, 𝒅𝒍 = 𝒂𝑥 𝑑𝑥 + 𝒂𝑦 𝑑𝑦 + 𝒂𝑧 𝑑𝑧 ; note that df is defined as, 𝜕𝑓 𝜕𝑓 𝜕𝑓 𝑑𝑓 = 𝑑𝑥 + 𝑑𝑦 + 𝑑𝑧 𝜕𝑥 𝜕𝑦 𝜕𝑧 𝜕𝑓 𝜕𝑓 𝜕𝑓 𝑑𝑓 = 𝒂𝑥 + 𝒂𝑦 + 𝒂𝑧 ∙ 𝒂𝑥 𝑑𝑥 + 𝒂𝑦 𝑑𝑦 + 𝒂𝑧 𝑑𝑧 𝜕𝑥 𝜕𝑦 𝜕𝑧 𝜕 𝜕 𝜕 = 𝒂𝑥 + 𝒂𝑦 + 𝒂𝑧 𝑓 ∙ 𝒂𝑥 𝑑𝑥 + 𝒂𝑦 𝑑𝑦 + 𝒂𝑧 𝑑𝑧 𝜕𝑥 𝜕𝑦 𝜕𝑧 Let us denote 𝜕 𝜕 𝜕 𝜵 = 𝒂𝑥 + 𝒂𝑦 + 𝒂𝑧 𝜕𝑥 𝜕𝑦 𝜕𝑧 which is known as Del operator. Lecture notes of Dr. Raghavendra G. Kulkarni, Distinguished Professor, PES University, Bengaluru, INDIA. Hence df becomes, 𝑑𝑓 = 𝜵𝑓 ∙ 𝒅𝒍 = 𝜵𝑓 𝒅𝒍 cos(𝜃) Notice that when dl aligns with 𝜵𝑓 (means θ is zero) the change df is maximum. Hence 𝜵𝑓 indicates the direction of maximum change in the scalar function, f(x, y, z). Gradient of scalar function, 𝜵𝑓 : 𝜵𝑓 is known as gradient of function f, or Grad (f), and its direction indicates the direction of maximum change in f. The direction normal to 𝜵𝑓 is the direction of zero change in f, or the contour of constant f. Thus 𝜵𝑓 = 0 yields the surface of constant f. Lecture notes of Dr. Raghavendra G.

Find Q3 the net force on Q3. Q2 Solution: Let Q1 be at origin. So, r1 = 0, r2 = 0.03 ay 3 cm and r3 = 0.04 ax + 0.03 ay. Force exerted by Q1 on Q3 is Q1 𝑄1 𝑄3 y 4 cm 𝑭13 = 3 𝑹13 , where 4𝜋∈0 𝑅13 x R13 = r3 – r1 = 0.04 ax + 0.03 ay , and R13 = 0.05 m. Since for free space, Є0 = 10-9/36π, we obtain, F13 = 43.2 ax + 32.4 ay Newtons. Lecture notes of Dr. Raghavendra G. Kulkarni, Distinguished Professor, PES University, Bengaluru, INDIA. Electrostatics Similarly, R23 = r3 – r2 = 0.04 ax , and R23 = 0.04 m. F13 Force exerted by Q2 on Q3 is Q2 F23 Q3 𝑄2 𝑄3 𝑭𝟐3 = 3 𝑹23 , 3 cm 4𝜋∈0 𝑅23 Thus, F23 = – 56.25 ax Newtons. Hence the net force Q1 4 cm on Q3 is: y F3 = F13 + F23 = – 13.05 ax + 32.4 ay Newtons. x Lecture notes of Dr. Raghavendra G. Kulkarni, Distinguished Professor, PES University, Bengaluru, INDIA.
