When an orthonormal basis that the vector a is represented in terms of is rotated, a's matrix in the new basis is obtained through multiplying a by a rotation matrix R. This matrix multiplication is just a compact representation of a sequence of dot products.

When the top electromagnet ( 1 ) is again enabled, the rotor will have rotated by one tooth position ; since there are 25 teeth, it will take 100 steps to make a full rotation in this example.

When an orthogonal basis is rotated into another orthogonal basis, the distinction between co-and contravariance is invisible.

When tested with the wheels off the ground, if one wheel is rotated with the differential case held, the other wheel will still rotate in the opposite direction as for an open differential but there will be some frictional losses and the torque will be distributed at other than 50 / 50.

When a three-or-more-phase supply completes one full cycle, the magnetic field of a two-poles-per-phase motor has rotated through 360 ° in physical space ; motors with more than two poles per phase require more power supply cycles to complete one physical revolution of the magnetic field and so these motors run slower.

When combined with the metaphysical notion that pure forms of this universe are best appreciated when least embodied in a material substratum, it becomes clear that while earth will be dross on a scale of material-formal ratios, celestial bodies will be of a subtle, quickened, ethereal existence, in whose embodiment pure form will be the dominant component and matter will be absent or remain subsidiary.
