C. Noether Theorem. In class we discussed how conservation of total momentum, angular momentum and energy are consequences of certain symmetries of the Lagrangian. More generally assume now that under a transformation of the form qi qi + eK (9), the lagrangian L = L(9.4) is invariant (meaning dL/de = 0). The functions Ki are functions of all the qi (denoted here collectively by 9). 1) Show that, if the Euler-Lagrange equations are satisfied then the quantity p(g, g) =...

3. The Lagrangian for a relativistic particle of (rest) mass m is L=-me²/1- (A² - Elmo (The corresponding action S = ( L dt is simply the length of the particle's path through space-time.) (a) Show that in the nonrelativistic limit (v << c) the result is the correct nonrelativistic kinetic energy, plus a constant corresponding to the particle's rest energy. (Hint.

1. Show that the Lagrangians L(t,q, y) and Īct, 4, ) = L(1,4,0) + f/10, 9) yield the same Euler-Lagrange equations. Here q e R and f(t,q) is an arbitrary function. 2 Lagrangian mechanics In mechanics, the space where the motion of a system lies is called the configuration space, which is usually an n-dimensional manifold Q. Motion of a system is defined as a curve q : R + Qon Q. Conventionally, we use a rather than 1 to...

2. Consider a mass m moving in R3 without friction. It is fasten tightly at one end of a string with length 1 and can swing in any direction. In fact, it moves on a sphere, a subspace of R3 1 0 φ g 2.1 Use the spherical coordinates (1,0,) to derive the Lagrangian L(0,0,0,0) = T-U, namely the difference of kinetic energy T and potential energy U.

You will be writing a simple Java program that implements an ancient form of encryption known as a substitution cipher or a Caesar cipher (after Julius Caesar, who reportedly used it to send messages to his armies) or a shift cipher. In a Caesar cipher, the letters in a message are replaced by the letters of a "shifted" alphabet. So for example if we had a shift of 3 we might have the following replacements: Original alphabet: A B C...
