Get started for freeThe square matrix in equation is called the Jacobian matrix J; the determinant of this matrix is the Jacobian which we used in Chapter 5 , Section 4 to find volume elements in multiple integrals. (Note that as in Chapter 3, J represents a matrix; J in italics is its determinant.) For the transformation to spherical coordinates in localid="1659266126385" and show that . Recall that the spherical coordinate volume element is . Hint: Find and note that
Show that the nine quantities (which are the Cartesian components of where V is a vector) satisfy the transformation equations for a Cartesian -rank tensor. Show that they do not satisfy the general tensor transformation equations as in . Hint: Differentiate orpartially with respect to, say,. You should get the expected terms [as in ] plus some extra terms; these extraneous terms show that is not a tensor under general transformations. Comment: It is possible to express the components of correctly in general coordinate systems by taking into account the variation of the basis vectors in length and direction.
:Do Problem 5 for the coordinate systems indicated in Problems 10 to 13.Eliptical cylinder.
Generalize Problem 3 to see that the direct product of any two isotropic tensors (or a direct product contracted) is an isotropic tensor. For example show thatis an isotropic tensor (what is its rank?) andis an isotropic tensor (what is its rank?).
