Thank you for the correction sammy, I'm not very good at vector calculus, and my book is hard to get useful information from.
so, I have
u(hat) = (2yi + 2xj)/(sqrt(4x^2 + 4y^2))
and
v(hat) = (2xi -2yj)/(sqrt(4x^2 + 4y^2))
I still do not understand how to take the time derivatives though...
Homework Statement
The Hyperbolic coordinate system is given by: u=2xy and v=x^2 - y^2
a.) Find the unit vectors u and v in terms of u,v,x(hat),y(hat)
b.)Find the time derivatives of u(hat) and v(hat), your answers will have du/dt and dv/dt in them
Homework Equations
None really...
