62 MATHEMATICAL INTRODUETION
2A. A solid body rorates with angular velocity @ about a symmetry
axis, Show that within the body
Vxv =
where v is the linear velocity of a point in the body
22, Show chat in the vicinity of the point (%q 4g, Z9) the Taylor sevies
for the function Fis’, 2") can he expressed as
BWR sydu co) ge he WEF sy toe 20
Fixit
“he VF
a
where his the vector from the point {xy..yp, 29) to the point (x',9', 2)
2.43, Using the expression given in Problem 2.42, expand the funcuon
Bee hi neal
in a Taylor series about the origin sy <3 =0
2A, Show that the directional denwative dU./as is equal to VU « 5,, where
s, is a unit vector in the direction of «+
2.45. Show that che volume enclased by a surface Sean be found front
dd from the origin af coordinates to the
fer is che position vector din
surface elesnent dS
2.46. Show that the equation + = 4 cos
cllipse with semiraxes a and
2.47. Using Stokes's theorem, show
1 +B sin Oj represents an
1 the integral
5 fee - ya
represents the area of the surface in the ap-plane enclosed by the path of
tegration
2.48. Using the integral given in Problem 247, find the area of the ellipse
given in Problem 2.46
2.49. Show that the curl of a unidizectional vector field ffx 3,2)A, where
Ais a constant vector, is not zero (anless WF is parallel to A} and is perpen-
dicular to both & and Uf. What implication does this result have on the electric
es of a parallel plate capacitor, if ome assuenes that the field is
finite and unidirectional inside the ey
2.50. Show that the divergence of 2 unidirectional vector field j(x,9,2)&,
where A isa constant veetor, is not zero ifWfhas a component along A. What
linplication does this result have on the magnetic field at the ends of a coi,
fone assumes that the field is finite anid unidirectional inside the coil and 2eto
just outsid
field at the e
facitor and nero just outside?
