Using Lagrange multipliers to calculate forces of constraint! 🔩⚙️ In this video, we dive deep into the power of Lagrangian mechanics to handle systems with constraints. Learn how to use Lagrange ...

Newtonian, Lagrangian, and Hamiltonian approaches! 🕰️🔬 In this video, we explore the motion of a simple pendulum from three different perspectives: the Newtonian approach (using forces and ...

This post has been sitting in my mind for quite some time. Really, it is about mechanics - not about pendulums. What is the goal in mechanics (classical mechanics, if you like)? Generally, it is to ...

Looking back at part I of this idea, I don't think I did a very good job. Let me summarize the key things I wanted to say: Normally, there are two ways of modeling the motion of an object: Calculating ...
