Be aware Á B is a scalar and never a vector. the next legislation are legitimate: 1. A Á B ¼ B Á A Commutative legislation for Dot items 2. A Á ðB þ CÞ ¼ A Á B þ A Á C Distributive legislation three. mðA Á BÞ ¼ ðmAÞ Á B ¼ A Á ðmBÞ ¼ ðA Á BÞm, the place m is a scalar. four. i Á i ¼ j Á j ¼ ok Á okay ¼ 1; iÁj¼jÁk¼kÁi¼0 five. If A ¼ A1 i þ A2 j þ A3 ok and B ¼ B1 i þ B2 j þ B3 okay, then A Á B ¼ A1 B1 þ A2 B2 þ A3 B3 The equivalence of this part shape the dot product with the geometric definition four follows from the legislations of cosines. (See Fig. 7-8. ) 154 VECTORS [CHAP. 7 specifically, jCj2 ¼ jAj2 þ jBj2 À 2jAjjBj cos  due to the fact C ¼ B À A its parts are B1 À A1 ; B2 À A2 ; B3 À A3 and the sq. of its importance is ðB21 þ B22 þ B23 Þ þ ðA21 þ A22 þ A23 Þ À 2ðA1 B1 Þ þ A2 B2 þ A3 B3 Þ or jBj2 þ jAj2 À 2ðA1 B1 þ A2 B2 þ A3 B3 Þ Fig. 7-8 while this illustration for jC j is positioned within the unique equation and cancellations are made, we receive 2 A1 B1 þ A2 B2 þ A3 B3 ¼ jAj jBj cos : pass OR VECTOR PRODUCT The pass or vector made of A and B is a vector C ¼ A  B (read A pass B). The importance of A  B is defined because the fabricated from the magnitudes of A and B and the sine of the perspective among them. The path of the vector C ¼ A  B is perpendicular to the airplane of A and B and such undefined, B, and C shape a right-handed method. In symbols, A  B ¼ AB sin u; 0@@ ð5Þ the place u is a unit vector indicating the course of A  B. If A ¼ B or if A is parallel to B, then sin  ¼ zero and A  B ¼ zero. the next legislation are legitimate: 1. A  B ¼ ÀB  A 2. three. A  ðB þ CÞ ¼ A  B þ A  C Distributive legislations mðA  BÞ ¼ ðmAÞ Â B ¼ A  ðmBÞ ¼ ðA  BÞm, the place m is a scalar. (Commutative legislations for move items Fails) additionally the next results of the definition are very important: four. i  i ¼ j  j ¼ okay  ok ¼ zero, i  j ¼ okay; j  okay ¼ i; ok  i ¼ j five. If A ¼ A1 i þ A2 j þ A3 okay and B ¼ B1 i þ B2 j þ B3 okay,   i  A  B ¼  A1  B1 then j A2 B2  okay  A3  B3  The equivalence of this part illustration (5) and the geometric definition should be obvious as follows. select a coodinate procedure such that the course of the x-axis is that of A and the xy aircraft is the airplane of the vectors A and B. (See Fig. 7-9. )    i j okay     Then A  B ¼  A1 zero zero  ¼ A1 B2 okay ¼ jAjjBjsine  ok    B1 B2 zero  because this number of coordinate procedure areas no regulations at the vectors A and B, the result's normal and therefore establishes the equivalence. Fig. 7-9 CHAP. 7] VECTORS a hundred and fifty five 6. jA  Bj ¼ the world of a parallelogram with aspects A and B. 7. If A  B ¼ zero and neither A nor B is a null vector, then A and B are parallel. TRIPLE items Dot and pass multiplication of 3 vectors, A, B, and C may perhaps produce significant items of the shape ðA Á BÞC; A Á ðB  CÞ; and A  ðB  CÞ. the next legislation are legitimate: 1. ðA Á BÞC 6¼ AðB Á CÞ generally 2. A Á ðB  CÞ ¼ B Á ðC  AÞ ¼ C Á ðA  BÞ ¼ quantity of a parallelepiped having A, B, and C as edges, or the detrimental of this quantity in accordance as A, B, and C do or don't shape a righthanded process. If A ¼ A1 i þ A2 j þ A3 okay, B ¼ B1 i þ B2 j þ B3 ok and C ¼ C1 i þ C2 j þ C3 ok, then    A1 A2 A3    ð6Þ A Á ðB  CÞ ¼  B1 B2 B3   C1 C2 C3  three.
