A rigid stick is pivoted at the origin and is arranged to swing around in a horizontal plane at a constant angular speed omega. A bead of mass m slides frictionlessly along the stick. Let r be the radial position of the bead. Find the Hamiltonian. Is it conserved? Explain why this quantity is not the energy of the bead.

A meter stick on a horizontal frictionless table top is pivoted at the 80-cm mark. A force F1 = 5 N is applied perpendicularly to the end of the stick at 0 cm, as shown. A second force F2 (not shown) is applied at the 100-cm end of the stick. The stick does not rotate. a) What is the torque (magnitude and sign) about the pivot from F1? b) Explain why the torque from the pivot about itself is zero....

How do you do a 90 degree counter-clockwise rotation around a point? I know around the origin it's (−y,x), but what would it be around a point?

f(x,y)=(xcos(t)−ysin(t),xsin(t)+ycos(t))f(x,y)=(xcos⁡(t)−ysin⁡(t),xsin⁡(t)+ycos⁡(t)) defines rotation around the origin through angle tt in the Cartesian plane R2R2. If one...

f(x,y)=(xcos(t)−ysin(t),xsin(t)+ycos(t))f(x,y)=(xcos⁡(t)−ysin⁡(t),xsin⁡(t)+ycos⁡(t)) defines rotation around the origin through angle tt in the Cartesian plane R2R2. If one rotates a point (x,y)∈R2(x,y)∈R2 around the origin through angle tt, then f(x,y)f(x,y) is the result. Let (a,b)∈R2(a,b)∈R2 be an arbitrary point. Find a formula for the function gg that rotates each point (x,y)(x,y) around the point (a,b)(a,b) through angle tt.
