1 Final Ea Classical Mechanics. Consider the otion in one diension of a article subjected to otential V= (where =constant). Use action-angle variables to find the eriod of the otion as a function of energ. Solution: The kinetic energ of the article is given b: T The otential energ of the article is given b: V The Energ of the article is given b: E T V The Lagrangian of the sste is given b: L T V The conjugate oenta is given b: L The Hailtonian is given b: H L T V E The conjugate tie derivative of oenta and satial coordinates are: H H Algebraicall, solve for oentu in ters of E and.

4 Final Ea Classical Mechanics. Deterine the Lagrangian densit for a three-diensional sound wave in air. Deterine the ressure, densit, velocit, and theral waves for a lane wave and a radiating oint source. Reference: Elore & Heald Phsics of Waves and htt://en.wikiversit.org/wiki/advanced_classical_mechanics/continuu_mechanics 3 Densit of air:.9 kg/ In considering volue changes in an elastic ediu, we can write Hooke s Law: PB P hdrostatic ressure strain B bulk odulus [force/area] The volue strain associated with increental ressure is related to the dislaceent (vector function of osition and tie): V V P B B dislaceent vector function P Pressure The increental changes in ressure cause sall changes V of volue V (equilibriu volue V) the work done is: W P V The otential energ densit is: W U P V P B P P V V B v Fro the net vector force on a cubical volue eleent a wave equation for ressure is found: df Pdddz dddz t ass of volue eleent acceleration of volue eleent P P P P P t t B t v t v B the velocit of the wave 4

9 Final Ea Classical Mechanics 4. First show that the following transforation is canonical: sin, P Q P P Q Q P Q Q P Q P, sin A transforation is canonical if the following is an eact differential: I found this reall cool relationshi but it turned out to be not worth anthing it looks like angular oentu sin, P Q P P Q Q P Q Q, P sin Q P P Q P P Q P P Q P P Q Q P Q Q P Q Q P Q Q P sin Q P P Q P sin sin sin Back to roving it is an eact differential the first art is to eress d d in ters of P s and Q s P sin Q P d sin QdP P QdQ dp P P Q Q d P Q Q sin QdP P QdQ dp P d P Q sin QdP P Q P QdQ P QdP P sin P Q Q dp Q P Q dq Q dp d Q sin Q dp P Q dq P Q dp Q sin QdP Q P QdQ QdP P 9

11 Final Ea Classical Mechanics The final relationshi is what is needed to show the eact differential: d d PdQ P dq d P P Q Q P sin Q PQ So this is the final art of the roof to show that it is an eact differential: i? df dq P dq PdQ P dq d P P Q Q P sin Q P Q PdQ P dq d P P Q Q P sin Q P Q i dq i i j j j i i j j j P dq d d PdQ P dq df where F P P Q Q P sin Q P Q After construction the Hailtonian for a article of charge q oving in a lane that is erendicular to a constant agnetic field B, use the transforation to eress the Hailtonian in the (Q,P) and obtain the otion of the article as a function of tie. OK so the net thing to do is construct the Hailtonian. First eress the kinetic energ in and (assuing B is arallel to the z ais): T Now the otential energ due to the Magnetic field: B Bzˆ ˆ ˆ zˆ q q q V v A v B R v B c c c z Bq Bq V c c The Lagrangian is: ˆ ˆ ˆ ˆ Bq L T V c
