1 Chapter 1 - Vector Analysis

2 Scalars and Vectors Scalar Fields (temperature) Vector Fields (gravitational, magnetic) Vector Algebra

3 The Cartesian Coordinate System

4 Vector Components and Unit Vectors

5 The Dot product The Vector Field Example A.B = |A||B| cos  AB B in the direction of A You need to normalize a before the dot product.

6 The Cross Product Example A x B = a N |A||B| sin  AB

7 Circular Cylindrical Coordinate System 1 - Unit Vector vary with The coordinate  Since direction changes 2 – Dot Product

8 Circular Cylindrical Coordinate System Dot Product

9 The Spherical Coordinate System
