Notes The principle of least action The notion of least action is a key concept in the Hamiltonian formulation. This is a more general kind of path variation where time and coordinates for position are both ...
Notes Force free motion of a symmetrical rigid body Let us choose the symmetry axis as the principle z axis, so that I1 = I2 and Euler's equations simplifies towhere A is some constant and we have chosen ...
Notes Cannonical transformation Transformation: More than one set of generalized coordinates can be used to describe a given system. We can decide on a set that will make solving the problem at hand ...
Notes Physical Significance of Hamiltonian The Hamiltonian in classical and quantum mechanics is a mathematical object that encodes the total energy of a physical system. It plays a central role in determining the time evolution ...
