\(\mathrm{C}_{5} \mathrm{H}_{11} \mathrm{OH} ; \mathcal{M}=88.15 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mol}\)) has nearly the same molar mass as hexane (\(\mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{14} ; \mathcal{M}=86.17 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mol}\)) but is more than 12 times as viscous at \(20^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). Explain.

In Chapter 4 (at the end of Section 4.7) I claimed that, for a system with one degree of freedom, positions of stable equilibrium "normally" correspond to minima of the potential energy U (q). Using Lagrangian mechanics, you can now prove this claim. (a) Consider a one-degree system of N particles wi
