... There are also interesting situations where the constraints are imposed on the generalized velocities, and these cannot be integrated to give functional relationships between the coordinates. An example is a rolling constraint of a wheel on a 2D plane. The angle through which the wheel has rotated i ...

... 4. Normal (constraint) forces: such forces act on a body which is constrained to move in a certain way by other bodies. Typical examples are: a) if the body is tied to a fully extended string or wire, there is a force, called tension, acting upon the body, along the direction of the wire. The magnit ...
