Transform B = yaxxaza, into Cylindrical Co-ordinates.

To transform the expression \( B = yaxxaza \) into cylindrical coordinates, we must first recognize the standard transformations from Cartesian coordinates \((x, y, z)\) to cylindrical coordinates \((r, \theta, z)\). These are given by:

\[
x = r \cos\theta, \quad y = r \sin\theta, \quad z = z
\]

Now, let's assume the terms in \( B = yaxxaza \) are Cartesian variables. Specifically, we have:

- \( y \) in Cartesian becomes \( r \sin\theta \) in cylindrical.
- \( x \) in Cartesian becomes \( r \cos\theta \) in cylindrical.
- \( z \) remains unchanged in cylindrical.

Given that the expression involves multiple occurrences of \( x \), \( y \), and \( z \), let's substitute them step by step.

Starting with the expression \( B = yaxxaza \):

\[
B = y \cdot a \cdot x \cdot x \cdot a \cdot z \cdot a
\]

Substitute each variable:

\[
y = r \sin\theta, \quad x = r \cos\theta, \quad z = z
\]

So, \( B \) in cylindrical coordinates becomes:

\[
B = (r \sin\theta) \cdot a \cdot (r \cos\theta) \cdot (r \cos\theta) \cdot a \cdot z \cdot a
\]

Simplifying:

\[
B = r^3 \sin\theta \cos^2\theta \cdot a^3 \cdot z
\]

Thus, the transformed expression for \( B \) in cylindrical coordinates is:

\[
B = a^3 r^3 \sin\theta \cos^2\theta \cdot z
\]
