  • Question
  • In spherical polar coordinates (l, q, a), q denotesthe polar angle around z-axis and a denotes the azimuthal angle raised from x-axis . Then the y-component of P is given by


  • Options
  • A. Psinq sina
  • B. Psinq cosa
  • C. Pcosq sina
  • D. Pcosq cosa

  • Correct Answer
  • Psinq sina 

    Explanation

    The Cartesian Coordinates can be retrieved from spherical coordinates (l,q,a) by:

    X = r.sinq.cosa

    Y = r.sinq.sina

    Z = r.sinq

    Using the same we get for P,

    Y = P.sinq.sina
