PHY 305/601 Classical Mechanics Assignment No. 1 1. Consider a particle of mass m constrained to move on a frictionless cylinder of radius R‚ given by the equation ρ=R in cylindrical polar coordinates (ρ‚ φ‚ z). Besides the force of constraint‚ the only force on the mass is force F=-kr directed toward the originUsing z and φ as generalized coordinates find the Lagrangian L‚ solve Lagrange’s equations and describe the motion. 2. Show that the kinetic energy of any holonomic mechanical system has
