Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Given two vectors A = [1, 2] and B = [3, 4], compute the tensor C = A ⊗ B and explain the meaning of each element in terms of interaction.
💡 Hint: Consider the significance of each product and how they illustrate combined vector magnitudes.
Define a physical situation where a third order tensor could apply, and compute its elements if A = [1, 0, 2] and B = [0, 3, 4].
💡 Hint: Think of the interactions that could occur in three dimensions.
