Physics: A Brief Summary
... dv/dt = d2 r/dt2 is the particle’s acceleration, with v being its velocity and r is position vector. In coordinates equation (2.1) looks like this: d2 xi (i = 1, 2, 3). dt2 2.2. Euler-Lagrange equations. Newton’s law as described above is easy to use in Cartesian coordinates for mechanical problems ...
