Examples?

[edit]

I think the enumerated steps in the Classical mechanics that basically outline how problems are done are great. They appear to distill what happens over the course of a physics class. I think they describe the "big picture" that I never saw when learning physics for the first time. If you ever found the time, I would be really interested in seeing key examples worked out in according to the agenda. That goes for wherever you have a list like that.

Actually this is only supposed to be a summary, no examples were intended. I'll give you examples of how to do classical and quantum mechanics at some point using Lagrange's/Hamiltonian's/Schrodinger's equations, in a seperate place (here, or your talk page/physics subpage etc, just point it out).

Interesting, looks like a formula-list article! Its a subpage - a nice one also, I'll let you off this one... Maschen (talk) 22:26, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Sure, if you were willing to do the examples you're of course free to put them wherever . (No sense in breaking the flow of the summary.) It would just be nice to have two or three "canonical" examples that everyone should understand (because I could not for the life of me name what they should be). It would also be nice if the same examples could be used for each of the increasingly sophisticated levels, so that one can see how the more complex levels compare to the simpler ones. There's no rush and I'm not getting my hopes up that you'll have time. Rschwieb (talk) 00:13, 13 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Lets keep everything here in one place then - easier. F = q(E+v×B) ⇄ ∑ici 16:22, 13 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Examples (LH Mech)

[edit]

Let’s do classical Lagrangian and Hamiltonian mechanics first ("LH Mech"). Quantum can come later. It may appear contradictory that when the problems are set up, the standard Cartesian or spherical/cylindrical polar coords will be used even though not all sets of coordinates are needed.
