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

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
