Scalar and Vector Fields
• A scalar field is a function that gives us a single
value of some variable for every point in space.
• Examples: voltage, current, energy,
temperature
• A vector is a quantity which has both a magnitude
and a direction in space.
• Examples: velocity, momentum, acceleration
and force

Scalar Fields
e.g. Temperature: Every location has
associated value (number with units)Awab Sir (www.awabsir.com)

Scalar Fields - Contours
• Colors represent surface temperature
• Contour lines show constant temperaturesAwab Sir (www.awabsir.com)

Vector Fields
Vector (magnitude, direction) at every point
in space
Example: Velocity vector field - jet streamAwab Sir (www.awabsir.com)

VECTOR REPRESENTATION
3 PRIMARY COORDINATE SYSTEMS:
• RECTANGULAR
• CYLINDRICAL
• SPHERICAL
Choice is based on
symmetry of problem
Examples:
Sheets - RECTANGULAR
Wires/Cables - CYLINDRICAL
Spheres - SPHERICAL

METRIC COEFFICIENTS
1. Rectangular Coordinates:
When you move a small amount in x-direction, the distance is dx
In a similar fashion, you generate dy and dz
Unit is in “meters”
