Show that the transformation equation for a -rank Cartesian tensor is equivalent to a similarity transformation. Warning hint: Note that the matrix C in Chapter 3 , Section 11 , is the inverse of the matrix A we are using in Chapter 10 (compare). Thus a similarity transformation of the matrix T with tensor components is. Also, see 鈥淭ensors and Matrices鈥 in Section 3 and remember that A is orthogonal.
Point masses 1 at (1, 1, -2) and 2 at (1, 1, 1).
Find in spherical coordinates by the method used to obtain(8.5)for cylindrical coordinates. Use your result to find for spherical coordinates, the scale factors, the vector ds , the volume element, the basis vectors and the corresponding unit basis vectors . Write the matrix.
Following what we did in equations (2.14) to (2.17), show that the direct product of a vector and a -rank tensor is a -rank tensor. Also show that the direct product of two -rank tensors is a -rank tensor. Generalize this to show that the direct product of two tensors of ranks m and n is a tensor of rank m + n .
