Classical mechanics discusses the behaviour of macroscopic bodies under the influence of forces (without necessarily specifying the origin of these forces). If it's possible, USE MORE SPECIFIC TAGS like [newtonian-mechanics], [lagrangian-formalism], and [hamiltonian-formalism].

Rigid body dynamics of tossing of a coin
I will give it a shot. Spoiler: I did this in the body frame so that the moment of inertia is time independent, before you get excited...
Starting with Euler's equations:
$$
I_i\dot{\Omega}_i+(I_j - …

Ball Rolling in a Parabolic Bowl
I would like to offer another Lagrangian approach, that tries to mirror the typical pendulum problem in lagrangian mechanics. I just thought of this, so I hope this is right...
A typical problem in …

Finding Lagrangian of a Spring Pendulum
The Total kinetic energy is the sum of the parts. For this there is kinetic energy in the radial direction $1/2 m \dot{x}^2$ and in the $\hat{\theta}$ direction. The super position of these two ener …

How to determine an exponential acceleration curve?
The givens: $\Delta t$, $d$, $v_1$, $v_2$. And you demand that the acceleration is exponential. Let
$$
a(t)=a_0 e^{\omega t}
$$
Then if we say that $v_1=0$ we have after integrating
$$
v(t)=\frac{a_0 …

Hamiltonian and the space-time structure
I tried the following: assuming that the metric only depends on the coordinates, $g(q)$, and the energy only depends on the the coordinates and the spatial momenta, $p_0 (q,p_i)$. I then considered v …
