  2. Polar coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polar_coordinate_system

    Similarly, any polar coordinate is identical to the coordinate with the negative radial component and the opposite direction (adding 180° to the polar angle). Therefore, the same point ( r , φ ) can be expressed with an infinite number of different polar coordinates ( r , φ + n × 360°) and (− r , φ + 180° + n × 360°) = (− r , φ ...

  3. Vector fields in cylindrical and spherical coordinates

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_fields_in...

    Vectors are defined in cylindrical coordinates by (ρ, φ, z), where ρ is the length of the vector projected onto the xy-plane, φ is the angle between the projection of the vector onto the xy-plane (i.e. ρ) and the positive x-axis (0 ≤ φ < 2π), z is the regular z-coordinate. (ρ, φ, z) is given in Cartesian coordinates by:

  4. Coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinate_system

    Another common coordinate system for the plane is the polar coordinate system. [7] A point is chosen as the pole and a ray from this point is taken as the polar axis. For a given angle θ, there is a single line through the pole whose angle with the polar axis is θ (measured counterclockwise from the axis to the line).

  5. Vector notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_notation

    A cylindrical coordinate system with origin O, polar axis A, and longitudinal axis L. The dot is the point with radial distance ρ = 4, angular coordinate φ = 130°, and height z = 4. A cylindrical vector is an extension of the concept of polar coordinates into three dimensions. It is akin to an arrow in the cylindrical coordinate system.

  6. Log-polar coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Log-polar_coordinates

    Log-polar coordinates in the plane consist of a pair of real numbers (ρ,θ), where ρ is the logarithm of the distance between a given point and the origin and θ is the angle between a line of reference (the x-axis) and the line through the origin and the point.

  7. Plot (graphics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plot_(graphics)

    Non-rectangular coordinates: the above all use two-dimensional rectangular coordinates; an example of a graph using polar coordinates, sometimes in three dimensions, is the antenna radiation pattern chart, which represents the power radiated in all directions by an antenna of specified type.

  9. Two-center bipolar coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-center_bipolar_coordinates

    Two-center bipolar coordinates. In mathematics, two-center bipolar coordinates is a coordinate system based on two coordinates which give distances from two fixed centers and . [1] This system is very useful in some scientific applications (e.g. calculating the electric field of a dipole on a plane). [2] [3]
