Introduction
• Electromagnetics (EM) may be regarded as
the study of the interactions between
electric charges at rest and in motion. It
entails the analysis, synthesis, physical
interpretation, and application of electric
and magnetic fields.

Dot Product
• The dot product of two vectors A and B, wrilten as A • B. is defined
geometrically as the product of the magnitudes of A and B and the
cosine of the angle between them.
12
Cross Product
• The cross product of two vectors A and B, written as A X B is a
vector quantity whose magnitude is the area of the parallelopiped
formed by A and B and is in the direction of advance of a right-
handed screw as A is turned into B.

Importance
• Physical quantities in EM are functions of
space and time.
• To describe the spatial variations of the
quantities, we must be able to define all
points uniquely in space in a suitable
manner. This requires using an
appropriate coordinate system.

Example
Given point P (-2, 6, 3) and vector
A = yax + (x + z)ay, express P and A in
cylindrical and spherical coordinates.
Evaluate A at P in the Cartesian and
Cylindrical.
