Student[VectorCalculus][CrossProduct] - compute the cross product of Vectors and differential operators
|
Calling Sequence
|
|
CrossProduct(v1, v2)
v1 &x v2
|
|
Parameters
|
|
v1
|
-
|
Vector, Vector-valued procedure, or differential operator
|
v2
|
-
|
Vector, Vector-valued procedure, or differential operator
|

Description
|
|
•
|
The CrossProduct(v1, v2) calling sequence computes the cross product (vector product) of v1 and v2, where v1 and v2 can be Vectors, vector fields, Student[VectorCalculus][Del], or Student[VectorCalculus][Nabla].
|
|
Note: You can enter vector fields as Vector-valued procedures or operators.
|
•
|
The Student[VectorCalculus] package has an &x cross product operator that you can use in place of the CrossProduct command. For example, CrossProduct(v1, v2) is equivalent to .
|
|
Also, is equivalent to Curl(F).
