Use equations (9.2), (9.8), and (9.11) to evaluate the following expressions. In spherical coordinates .
(a) Write the triple scalar productin tensor form and show that it is equal to the determinant in Chapter 6, equation. Hint: See.
(b) Write equationof Chapter 6 in tensor form to show the equivalence of the various expressions for the triple scalar product. Hint: Change the dummy indices as needed.
Use the results of Problem 1to find the velocity and acceleration components in spherical coordinates. Find the velocity in two ways: starting with ds and starting with.
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?).
