A
LINEARITY
Because of linearity, in each case <£p is linearly proportional to the dipole magnitude.
B SUPERPOSITION
P = Pxi+Pvi+Pzk
*P = CxPx+CyPy+CzPz
Ć = cj+ęj+cji
C VECTOR ALGEBRA
Mathematically.the potential d?p isthe scalarproduct of dipole p and the lead vector ć
|p|-cosa
Because of superpositon, <t>p is proportional to the sum ofthe potentials of each dipole component. The proportionality coefficient is three-dimensional. It isthe leadvector c.
<t>p = c»p = | c|-|p|-cosgł.
