Vector Analysis
roblem 1.1
(a) From the diagram, |B + C| cos; = |B| cos; + |C|cosé2. Multiply by |A|.
|AIIB + C| cos 4s = |A||B|cos6; + |Al|C|cos6s.
So: A.(B + C) = A-B+A-C. (Dot product is distributive.)
Similarly: |B + C|sin 85 = [B|sin 8; + |C|sin8. Mulitply by ||.
|AIIB + C]sin@s fi = |Al[B[sin#; A+ |Al|C|sin@, a.
If fis the unit vector pointing out of the page, it follows that,
Ax(B-+C) = (AxB) + (AXC). (Cross product is distributive.) TBleoses [Cleoobs
(b) For the general case, see G. B. Hay’s Vector and Tensor Analysis, Chapter 1, Section 7 (dot product) and
Section 8 (cross product).
Problem 1.2

‘The triple cross-product is not in general associative. For example,
suppose A = B and C is perpendicular to A, as in the diagram.
‘Then (BxC) points out-of-the-page, and Ax(BxC) points doun,
and has magnitude ABC. But (AxB) = 0, so (AXB)xC = 0 ¢ i

"The cross-product of any two vectors in the plane will give a vector perpendicular to the plane. For example,
we might pick the base (A) and the left side (B):

Problem 1.6
Ax(BXxC)+Bx (Cx A)+Cx(A xB) = B(A-C)-C(A-B)+C(A-B)—A(C-B)+A(B-C)—B(C-A)
So: Ax (BXxC) ~ (AxB)x€C = —Bx (Cx) = A(B-C) - C(A'B).
If this is zero, then either A is parallel to C (including the case in which they point in opposite directions, or
one is zero), or else B-C = B-A = 0, in which case B is perpendicular to A and C (including the case B = 0).
Conclusion: [A x(BXC) = (AXB)xC <= either A is parallel to C, or B is perpendicular to A and C.

Moreover, if R is to preserve lengths for all vectors A, then this condition is not only sufficient but also
necessary. For suppose A = (1,0,0). Then Sy (Us Ray Rie) Ay Ax = By Ry, Rn, and this must equal 1 (since we
want A,+A,+Ay = 1). Likewise, D2, RyoPis = Ei, Ragas = 1. To check the case j # k, choose A = (1,1,0).
Dya (Es RypRen) Ape = 3, Ra Ra + By Rae +3 Ru Ra +3, RgRu. But we already
know that the first two sums are both 1; the third and fourth are equal, s0 3 Ru Riz = 3, RR, =0, and so

(© (AxB) — (-A)x(-B) = (AxB). That is, if C = AxB, [C —) GC]. No minus sign, in contrast to
behavior of an “ordinary” vector, as given by (b). If A and B are pseudovectors, then (AXB) —+ (A) x(B) =
(AxB). So the cross-product of two pseudovectors is again a pseudovector. In the cross-product of a vector
and a pseudovector, one changes sign, the other doesn’t, and therefore the cross-product is itself a vector.
Angular momentum (L = rxp) and torque (N = rxF) are pseudovectors.
(a) A(Bx@) — (-A)((-B)x(—C)) = -A(BX©). So, ifa = A(BXC), then

(2) Corollary 2 says §(V7)-dl = 0. Stokes’ theorem says #(VP)-dl = [Vx (VT)]-da. $0 [[Vx(VT)}-da = 0,
and since this is true for any surface, the integrand must vanish: Vx(VT) = 0, confirming Eq. 1.44.20 CHAPTER 1. VECTOR ANALYSIS
(b) Corollary 2says $('V xv) -da = 0. Divergence theorem says f(V xv)-da = ['V-(W xv) dr. So f V+(V xv) dr
0, and since this is true for any volume, the integrand must vanish: V(V Xv) = 0, confirming Eq. 1.46.
(a) Divergence theorem: $v-da = [(W-v) dr. Let v = eT, where ¢ is a constant vector. Using product
rule #5 in front cover: V-v = V-(eT) = T(V-c) + ¢- (VT). But ¢ is constant so V-e = 0. Therefore we have:
Je-(VT)dr = fTe- da. Since ¢ is constant, take it outside the integrals: ¢-fVI'dr = c+ fT da. But ¢

V.(v x €) = (Vv) ~v-(VXe) =e: (VXv). (Note: VXxe = 0, since ¢ is constant.) Meanwhile vector
identity (1) says da (v x e) = €- (da xv) = —c+ (v x da). Thus fe (Vxv) dr =~ fe- (v x da). Take ¢

(4) Rewrite (c) with PU: f (UV?T + (VT)-(VU)) dr= [(UVT)-da. Subtract this from (c), noting
that the (VU) -(W7) terms cancel:

Problem 2.22
E = ,L:28 (Prob. 2.13). In this case we cannot set the reference point at 00, since the charge itself
extends to'o0. Let’s set it at s =a. Then
clear why a = 00 would be no good—likewise the other “natural” point, a = 0.)

Ifthe right-hand charge in (a) is ~a, then [V = 0}, which, naively, suggests B = —VV = 0, in contradiction
with the answer to Prob. 2.25. The point is that we only know V on the z axis, and from this we cannot
hope to compute B, = —9Y or By = 9. That was OK in part (a), because we knew from symmetry that
E, = E, = 0. But now E points in the x direction, so knowing V on the z axis is insufficient to determine E.
