    Consider the vector field \(\vec{A} = \vec{\nabla}\log\frac{1}{r}\), where \(r = \sqrt{x^2 + y^2 + z^2}\). Write the components of this field

    1. in Cartesian coordinates \((x, y, z)\),

    2. in cylindrical coordinates \((r, \phi, z)\),

    3. in spherical coordinates \((r, \theta, \phi)\).
