In vector calculus, a vector field is an assignment of a vector to each point in a subset of space. A vector field in the plane, for instance, can be visualized as a collection of arrows with a given magnitude and direction each attached to a point in the plane. Vector fields are often used to model, for example, the speed and direction of a moving fluid throughout space.

Is $\frac{∂}{x_{j}} \phi(\vec{r})$ at $\vec{ r}=0$ the same as $\frac{∂}{∂x_{j}} \phi(0)$ ca...
In the attached picture, the author evaluated first $ \frac{∂}{∂x_{j}} \phi(\vec{r})$ then to evaluate, in the line below it, $\frac{∂}{∂x_{j}} \phi(0)$, he simply substituted $\vec{r}=0$ in the calc …
