Classical Mechanics: Cylindrical Coordinates - Mass on a Cylinder

Dot Physics via YouTube

Overview

Explore cylindrical coordinates in classical mechanics through a video tutorial focusing on a frictionless particle confined to a vertical cylinder's surface. Learn to apply Newton's second law in cylindrical coordinates and derive the equation of motion for the particle. Gain insights into problem-solving techniques for particles with angular velocity on curved surfaces. Access accompanying Python code to visualize and simulate the particle's behavior, enhancing your understanding of this complex mechanical system.
