[itex]\vec{r}_a[/itex] is a positional vector from reference frame [itex]a[/itex]. What is the position of same point from reference frame [itex]b[/itex] ?
If required, assume position of origin of frame [itex]a[/itex] is [itex]\vec{m}[/itex] and unit point (i.e. [itex]\langle 1,1,1\rangle_a[/itex] ) is [itex]\vec{n}[/itex] from reference frame [itex]b[/itex].
I am studying Kleppner and Kolenkow and this is the first thing I asked myself. Unexpectedly its taking a while to figure it out. So help needed.
