Question

what are polar and axial vectors

Answer 1

Answer:

• An example of an axial vector is the vector product of two polar vectors, such as L = r × p, where L is the angular momentum of a particle, r is its position vector, and p is its momentum vector. Compare pseudo-scalar. From: axial vector in A Dictionary of Physics
• In physics, a polar vector is a vector such as the radius vector that reverses sign when the coordinate axes are reversed. Polar vectors are the type of vector usually simply known as "vectors." In contrast, pseudovectors (also called axial vectors) do not reverse sign when the coordinate axes are reversed.

Answer 2

Answer:

physics and mathematics, a pseudovector is a quantity that transforms like a vector under a proper rotation, but in three dimensions gains an additional sign flip under an improper rotation such as a reflection. Geometrically it is the opposite, of equal magnitude but in the opposite direction, of its mirror image
