Find the equations of motion for the LagrangianL = eγt(mq˙2/2 − kq2/2)How would you describe the system? Are there any constants of motion?Suppose a point transformation is made of the forms = eγt/2q.What is the effective Lagrangian in terms of s? Find the equation of motion for s. What do these results say about the conserved quantities for the system?
Demonstrate that in an electromagnetic field, the gauge transformation transfers the L to an equivalent Lagrangian L', where L' = L+ dFG,1 and F(q, t) is a function of generalised coordinates (q:) and time t. Calculate the generalised momentum and Hamiltonian of the charged particle travelling in an electromagnetic field using the aforementioned Lagrangian.
