The center of a long frictionless rod is pivoted at the origin, and the rod is
forced to rotate in a horizontal plane with constant angular velocity
A smooth wire is bent into the shape of a helix, with cylindrical polar
coordinates
Lagrange's equations in the form discussed in this chapter hold only if the
forces (at least the nonconstraint forces) are derivable from a potential
energy. To get an idea how they can be modified to include forces like
friction, consider the following: A single particle in one dimension is
subject to various conservative forces (net conservative force
