Get started for freeFor Example 1, write out the components of U,V, and in the original right-handed coordinate system and in the left-handed coordinate system S' with the axis reflected. Show that each component ofinS'has the “wrong” sign to obey the vector transformation laws.
If P and S are -rank tensors, show that coefficients are needed to write each component of P as a linear combination of the components of S. Show that is the number of components in a -rank tensor. If the components of the -rank tensor are , then equation gives the components of P in terms of the components of S. If P and S are both symmetric, show that we need only 36different non-zero components in . Hint: Consider the number of different components in P and S when they are symmetric. Comment: The stress and strain tensors can both be shown to be symmetric. Further symmetry reduces the 36components of C in (7.5)to 21or less.
Write out the sums for each value of and compare the discussion of .Hint: For example, if [or y in ], then the pressure across the face perpendicular to theaxis is , or, in the notation of (1.1), .
What are the physical components of the gradient in polar coordinates? [See (9.1)].The partial derivatives in (10.5) are the covariant components of. What relationdo you deduce between physical and covariant components? Answer the samequestions for spherical coordinates, and for an orthogonal coordinate system withscale factors.
Show that the sum of the squares of the direction cosines of a line through the origin is equal to 1 Hint: Let be a point on the line at distance 1 from the origin. Write the direction cosines in terms of .
