An object is moving between two points on a circle with radius R. The object can only move along the circle. The function F is the path length travelled between two points on the circle. a. Assume that the position of the object along the circle is described by an angle θ with respect to the center of the circle and the x-axis. Is this angle a minimum set of generalized coordinates for this problem? b. Assume that the position of the object along the circle is described by two Cartesian coordinates x and y, where the origin of the coordinate system is the center of the circle. Are these coordinates a minimum set of generalized coordinates for this problem? c. What would be the holonomic constraint for the two Cartesian coordinates x and y for the motion around the circle? d. What would be the Euler equation for this problem in Cartesian coordinates with holonomic constraint and Lagrange multiplier λ.

From your point of view, the ant farm appears as a 2D plane in which ants can move vertically (up/down) or horizontally (left right). The ant starts by walking up at a speed of 4.1 millimeters per second (mm/s). After 18 seconds, it turn left. The tunnel that the ant is crawling through is a bit more constricted, and so it slows down to 3.5 mm/s and continues walking in that direction for another 13 seconds. When it reaches the edge of the ant farm, it turns right and tries to walk along the wall to reach the surface. With the sun in view, it speeds up to 6.8 mm/s for 19 seconds until it finally reaches the surface. At this point, how far (in centimeters) is the ant from its starting point? Note: 1 mm = 10-3 m, 1 cm = 10-² marrow_forwardAn earthquake emits both S-waves and P-waves which travel at different speeds through the Earth.

- An object is released from rest at a height of h. During the final second of its fall, it traverses a distance of 38m. Determine h. I would like to know the solution but also maybe an explanation on how I would know what process to take. For the last second, I was able to find that final vf = 38m/s. That is vf = deltax/deltat, or 38m/1s. I plugged it in to vf2 = vo2 + 2a(deltax), since I think that vf shouldn't change for h, but I got the wrong answer. Please explain.arrow_forwardLw21a.pdf bad p111w21a.pdf (113 KB) 7). A particle is moving in three dimensions.
