For Problem 8.16, how do I prove the relations and give the correct expressions?
Problem #1 (Problem 5.3 in book). Come up with a function for A (the Helmholtz free energy) and derive the differential form that reveals A as a potential: dA < -SdT – pdV [Eqn 5.20]
1. Consider the 2D motion of a particle of mass u in a central force field with potential V(r). a) Find the r, o polar-coordinate expression of the Lagrangian for this system and write down the corresponding Euler-Lagrange e.o.m.s. b) Note that the angular variable o is cyclic. What is the physical interpretation of the correspond- ing integral of motion? (For the definitions of the italicized terms see this link.) c) Solve for o in terms of this integral of motion and substitute the result into the Euler-Lagrange equation for r. Show that the result can be arranged to look like a purely 1D e.o.m. of the form dVef(r) (1) dr Identify in the process the explicit expression for Vef(r), which will depend among other things on the integral of motion. d) Take now k V (r) = with k > 0 to be an attractive electrostatic/gravitational-type potential. Sketch the profile of the corresponding effective potential function Vef(r). Find the equilibrium solution for the correspond- ing e.o.m. (1). What…
