That is right. I didn't think using that for cross product. After that I can use (a) to prove the given relation.
It seems this was a little bit dummy question.
Thank you very much!
Homework Statement
The problem is given in the following photo:
Actually I did the first proof but I couldn't get the second relation. (Divergence of E cross H).
Homework Equations
They are all given in the photo. (a) (b) and (c).
The Attempt at a Solution
What I tried is to interchange...
Hmm, ok.
I choose as F= Fx i + 0j+0k
∇.F=Fx
then the right side becomes also integration of (Fx ds sub x)
so, for the x component i think i can say
∇ψ=Fx
but here ∇ψ is a vector quantitiy but Fx is scalar now. How could it be?
Hi to all
Homework Statement
∫∫∫∇ψdv = ∫∫ψ ds
over R over S
R is the region closed by a surface S
here dv and ψ are given as scalars and ds is given as a vector quantitiy.
and questions asks for establishing the gradient theorem by appliying the divergence theorem to each component...
ok, drawing the region, transforming into volume integral and subtracting three additional surface integrals; i finally found 3/4 with only pencil and paper.
thanks anyway.
Hi to all,

g(x,y,z)=x2+y2+z2-25
taking the surface integral and replacing all
(x2+y2+z2) with 25

The Attempt at a Solution
i tried for nth component
εnjk (d/dxj)εklm ψl vm
εknjεklm (d/dxj) ψl vm
using εijkεimn=δjnδkm-δknδjm...
ok from there,
ajcjbkdk-ajdjbkck
and i assume, similar form can be obtained for j and k components by just replacingg j s with k s, i s with j s and k s with i s. And in total i have 6 terms, 2 terms from each component. Am i right?
But, on the right had side i think i should have more...
Ok, thanks, in future i will be more careful.
What about the dot product on the left side, how can i use Levi Civita symbol to represent it.
Actually, the identity that you wrote and the cross product representation are all i know about the Levi Civita symbol but i couldn't use them.
Dear all,
Any idea for the proof of the Lagrange's identity using tensor notations and Levi Civita symbol?
(a x b).(c x d)=(a.c)(b.d) - (a.d)(b.c)
x: cross product
a,b,c,d: vectors
Thanks
Thanks for replies.
But still can't figure out how to conclude the last scalar triple product gives 0.
Edit: I got that it is obvious. I have the same vector in both parts.
Again thank you for your help.
