Write down the Lagrangian for a projectile (subject to no air resistance) in terms of its Cartesian coordinates (x, y, z), with z measured vertically upward. Find the three Lagrange equations and show that they are exactly what you would expect for the equations of motion.

Problem 52E Sedna. In November 2003 the now-most-distant-known object in the solar system was discovered by observation with a telescope on Mt. Palomar. This object known as Sedna, is approximately 1700 km in diameter, takes about 10.500 years to orbit our sun, and reaches a maximum speed of 4.64

Physics for Scientists & Engineers with Modern Physics 4
A physical pendulum consists of an 85-cm-long, 240-g-mass, uniform wooden rod hung from a nail near one end (Fig. 14-38). The motion is damped because of friction in the pivot; the damping force is approximately t proportional to d6/dt. The rod is set in oscillation by displacing it 15 from its equil

Myers' Psychology for AP 2

Quantitative Chemical Analysis 8
Consider a mixture of the two solids, BaCl2 2H2O (FM 244.26) and KCl (FM 74.551), in an unknown ratio. (The notation BaCl2  2H2O means that a crystal is formed with two water molecules for each BaCl2.) When the unknown is heated to 160C for 1 h, the water of crystallization is driven off: A sample

Macroeconomics 22nd
What are the determinants of demand? What happens to the demand curve when any of these determinants change? Distinguish between a change in demand and a movement along a fixed demand curve, noting the cause(s) of each.
