Q.n.4 Consider two particles of masses m1 and m2. Let ml be confined to move on a circle of
radius a in the z = 0 plane, centered at x = y = 0. Let m2 be confined to move on a circle of radius
b in the z = c plane, centered at x = y= 0. A light (massless) spring of spring constant k is attached
between the two particles.
a) Find the Lagrangian for the system.
