Any number of possibilities exist for the choice of generalized coordinates to be used for a given problem. As mentioned earlier in the lecture, we need to guarantee that the choice of coordinates ...

Recall that you must choose a set of independent coordinates PRIOR to using Lagrange’s equations. One way to verify that your choice of generalized coordinates are independent is to: hold all but one ...
