Evaluate the dot products of the unit vectors in terms ofθusing Figure 7.5. For example, i'×j is the cosine of the angle between the x' axis and the yaxis.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The axes (x,y) which rotated by an angle θwith respect to the axes (x'y')obtained from the previous equation which related the components of rand rwritten in the matrix form x'y'=cosθsinθ-sinθcosθxy

Axes rotated which represent a passive transformation (vectors not changed but their components changed because the axes are rotated) are verified.

Step by step solution

01

Definition of the dot  product

The dot product of two vectors uand v, written as u.vis defined by u.v=|u||v|, where θis the angle between uand v.

02

Given parameters

The vector r = ( x,y) and the vector r'=(x',y') are the same vectors, but their components are relative to different axes.

03

Apply the dot product with  

As the vector r = (x,y) and the vector r'=(x'y')are the same vectors. We write

r=ri'x'+j'y'=ix+jy

Apply the dot product with i', and it becomes

i'i'x'+(J'.i')=i.i'x'+(j.i')y (1)

04

Evaluate the dot product of the unit vectors

From the figure (7.5) , the angle between the axes x and x' of the two unit vectors and i' is θ, so that

The dot product of the unit vectors i and i' is =ii'cosθ=cosθ, where i=1and i'=1

And the angle between the axes y and x' of the two unit vectors j and i' is 2-θ=sinθ, so that the dot product of the unit vectors and is , where j=1,i'=1and we use the following relation

cos2-0=cos2×cosθ+sin2×sinθ=0×cosθ+sinθ=sinθ

Also, the angle between the axes and of the two unit vectors j' and i' is 2, so that the dot product of the unit vectors and is j'.i'=j'i'cos2=0.

Finally, the dot product of the unit vectors and must be i'.i'=i'i'cos0=1, where i'=1

Using the following equation in the equation (1) implies that

05

Apply the dot product with j'

As the vector r=x,yand the vector r'=x',y'are the same vectors. We write r=ri'x'+j'y'=ix+jy

Apply the dot product with j', and it becomes

i'.j'x'+j'.j'y'=i'.j'x'+j'.j'y'(2)

06

Evaluate the dot product of the unit vectors

From the figure , the angle between the axes x'and y' of the two unit vectors i'and j' is ττ2, so that

The dot product of the unit vectors i and i'is localid="1659004543906" i.j'=ij'cosττ2=0.

And the angle between the axes x and y'of the two unit vectors iand j'is ττ2+θ, so that the dot product of the unit vectors and is localid="1659005132626" i.j'=ij'cosττ2=-sinθ, where j'=1,i=1, and we use the following relation

cosττ2+θ=cosττ2×cosθ-sinττ2×sinθ=0×cosθ-1×sinθ=-sinθ

Also, the angle between the axes y and y'of the two unit vectors j and j'is θ, so that the dot product of the unit vectors and is localid="1659005460213" j.j'=jj'cosθ=cosθ
.

Finally, the dot product of the unit vectors i'and i'must be j'.j'=j'j'cos0=1, where

Using the following equation in the equation (2) implies that

(i'.j')x'+(j'.j')y'=(i.j')x+(j.j')y(0)x'+(1)y'=-(sinθ)x+(cosθ)yy'=-(sinθ)x+(cosθ)y

Therefore, we deduce the following set of equations (1) and (2) are

x'=(cosθ)x+(sinθ)yy'=(-sinθ)x+(cosθ)y

Therefore, the axes (x,y) which rotated by an angle θwith respect to the axes (x',y')obtained from the previous equation which related the components of rand r written in the matrix form x'y'=cosθsinθ-sinθcosθxy,

Axes rotated which represent a passive transformation (vectors not changed but their components changed because the axes are rotated) are verified.

Show that an orthogonal matrix M with all real eigenvalues is symmetric. Hints: Method 1. When the eigenvalues are real, so are the eigenvectors, and the unitary matrix which diagonalizes M is orthogonal. Use (11.27). Method 2. From Problem 46, note that the only real eigenvalues of an orthogonal M are ±1. Thus show that M=M-1 . Remember that M is orthogonal to show that M=MT.
