AB - A general matrix method for differentiating unit vectors in an arbitrary orthogonal system of coordinates is given. The spatial and time derivatives of any vectors can then be obtained by differentiating the vector that has been expressed in terms of a product of a component row matrix and a unit vector column matrix, and then recombining the resultant matrices. Some examples are given to illustrate its use.
