1 1 Vector nalsis 1.1 VECTR NYSIS Introduction In general, electromagnetic field problem involves three space variables, as a result of which the solutions tend to become complex. This can be overcome b the use of vector analsis. So, knowledge of vector analsis is an essential pre-requisite to the stud of theor of electromagnetic fields Scalar and Vectors quantit is said to be a scalar if it has onl magnitude. uantities such as time, mass, distance, temperature, electric potential and population are scalars. quantit is called vector if it has both magnitude and direction. Vector quantities include velocit, force, displacement and electric field intensit. To distinguish between a scalar and a vector, it is customar to represent a vector b a letter with an arrow on the top, such as and. scalar is represented b a letter e.g.,, and U. Electromagnetic theor is essentiall a stud of some particular fields. We define a field as a function that specifies a particular quantit, everwhere in a region. Some examples of scalar fields are: temperature distribution in a building, sound intensit in a theatre and electric potential in a region. The gravitational force on a bod in space and the velocit of raindrops in the atmosphere are examples of vector fields Unit Vector vector has both magnitude and direction. The magnitude of is a scalar written as or. unit vector a along is defined as a vector whose magnitude is unit and its direction is along. In general, an vector can be represented b its magnitude and its direction as follows. = a,...(1.1) where magnitude of the vector a, direction of the vector. This a is called a unit vector.

The magnitude of is given b = = + + and the unit vector along is given b a = = a = a + a + a x x (1.3) Vector ddition and Subtraction Two vectors and can be added together to give another vector C. The vector addition is carried out component b component.

The position vector r p (radius vector) of point is defined as the directed distance from the origin to, that is rp = = xax + a + a....(1.6) For example, the position vector for the point (3, 4, 5) is 3ax + 4a + 5a which is shown in Fig If two points and are given b (x p, p, p ) and (x,, ), the distance vector (or separation vector) between and is the displacement from to as in Fig r = r r d i d i d i = x x a + a + a x..(1.7)

There are two tpes of vector multiplication: (a) Scalar (or dot) product: (b) Vector (or cross) product:. Multiplication of three vectors, and C can result in either (c) Scalar triple product: C or (d) Vector triple product: d d i C i (a) Dot roduct The dot product of two vectors and, written as, is defined geometricall as the product of the magnitude of and the projection of onto (or vice versa). Thus = cosθ,...(1.8) where θ is the smaller angle between and. The result is called either the scalar product because it is scalar, or the dot product due to the dot sign.

In order to describe the spatial variations of the quantities, all the points in space must be defined using an appropriate co-ordinate sstem. lthough there are different co-ordinate sstems available, the three well-known co-ordinate sstems are Cartesian (or rectangular) co-ordinates, circular clindrical co-ordinates and spherical coordinates Cartesian Co-ordinates (X, Y, Z) point is represented in cartesian or rectangular co-ordinates as (X, Y, Z). From Fig. 1.11, it is known that an point in rectangular co-ordinate is the intersection of three plane (i) constant X-plane (ii) constant Y-plane and (iii) constant Z-plane which are mutuall perpendicular.

From Fig. 1.12, it is known that an point in the clindrical co-ordinates is an intersection of three planes vi. (i) constant plane (a clinder) (ii) constant plane (plane perpendicular to XY plane and displaced b angle from X-axis) (iii) constant Z-plane (parallel to XY plane). Each variable is defined as (i) is the radius of clinder passing through or the radial distance from Z-axis. (ii) is called the aimuthal angle and is measured from the X-axis in the XY plane: (iii) Z is the same as in cartesian sstem. The ranges of variables are 0 <

(iii) a constant plane which is perpendicular to XY plane and displaced b angle from X-axis. Z θ = Constant r = Constant Y X = Constant Fig From the Fig. 1.16, r is defined as the distance from the origin to the point or radius of the sphere, centred at origin, and passing through. θ (co-latitude) is the angle between the Z-axis and the position vector of, and is the angle measured from X-axis (same angle in clindrical coordinates).

20 20 Electromagnetic Fields Relationship between Unit Vectors of Three Co-ordinates The transformation of vector requires the determination of the products of the unit vector in respective co-ordinates. The dot product of an spherical unit vector with an cartesian unit vector is the component of the spherical vector in the direction of the cartesian vector. The dot products are performed b first projecting the spherical unit vector on the XY plane and then projecting on to the desired axis. From the Fig. 1.19, dot products of unit vectors in spherical and cartesian co-ordinate sstems are as given in the Table Z a a θ a r a 90-θ θ 90-θ θ a θ a θ a x Fig Table a r aθ a a x. sin θcos cosθcos sin a. sinθsin cosθsin cos a. cosθ sin θ 0 Dot products of unit vectors in spherical and clindrical co-ordinate sstems are as given in Table
