Classical Mechanics – Lagrangian: Basic Problems

In classical mechanics, the Lagrangian formulation provides a powerful method to analyze the motion of physical systems. Here, we will discuss some basic problems to illustrate how to apply the Lagrangian approach to derive the equations of motion.

Harmonic Oscillator, Particle in a Gravitational Field, Double Pendulum, Particle on an Inclined Plane, These examples demonstrate how to apply the Lagrangian formulation to solve basic problems in classical mechanics. Understanding these fundamental problems provides a foundation for tackling more complex systems and further studies in theoretical physics.

Students must download the objective question objective & subjective question set in pdf form and save the pdf according to topic, chapter, and sub-topic respectively. It is advisable for the students to download one chapter at a time, complete that and then go for the next chapter.

Those students doing self-study should consult the appropriate textbook as well as they can take help from our video lectures.

Students should solve the examples on their own after understanding the concepts given in the theory. They may use the solutions only as a last option. The purpose of free practice questions is two-fold The students preparing for competitive exams like NET Physical Science, GATE, IIT-JAM, JEST, and TIFR in self-study mode must get authentic and focused Questions.
