I have a problem and can’t seem to work it out! Ok, here goes:
X/|X|^3 = grad U(X)
which, when integrated gives
U(X)= -1/|X|
But I can’t seem to integrate to get the correct answer. Also, if
U(X)= -1/(|X|^v )
where v is a constant, then what is grad U(X) now? Thanks for...
I have a very similar problem and can’t seem to work it out! Ok, here goes:
X/|X|^3 =grad U(X)
which, when integrated gives
U(X)=- 1/|X|

U(X)=- 1/|X|^v
where v is a constant, then what is grad U(X) now...
