(choose chapter or problem)

Suppose that a particle of mass m is constrained to move on the ellipsoid 2x 2 + 3y2 + z2 = 1 subject to both a gravitational force F = mgk, as well as to an additional potential V(x, y,z) = 2x. (a) Find any equilibrium points for this situation. (b) Are there any stable equilibria?
