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?
