I have chosen my y-coordinate axis to point downward. So the y-values are positive. Generalized coordinates are exactly that--very general. You don’t have to use the traditional coordinate systems any more.
@@DR_VIV I meant from the very start. Like how you made up1 and up2 videos. And yes i am subscribed and love your channel. Your up1 videos helped me a lot!!
@@abdurrahmanlabib916 these are graduate level videos, so students who will be assigned these would already know lagrangian mechanics from undergraduate mechanics course. So there is a gap. A series of videos for undergrad mechanics should be watched from another source to fill the gap. This set of 28 lectures is not meant to follow a freshman level course. The undergrad level course is supposed to follow the freshman course and then the graduate course to follow the undergrad course. I will try my best to address the gaps and I do that in these examples, but they are not meant for those who have not seen lagrangian mechanics before. I did call them graduate level… also I am doing little to no theory, only examples for the most part. The intention is to use these to supplement my courses for grad school I teach at my institution. Theory is taught in the classroom. I hope this detailed response makes you understand my goals and purposes in these videos, once again they are not for undergrad but of course everyone can learn from them and the methods shown because examples illustrate theory at any level.
However I have decided (before your comments) to create a theoretical wrap up video on lagrangian mechanics viewed from both d’alembert and least action principles (this will be video 13 or 14) so look out for that. It will again be more advanced and mature than a undergrad treatment but I believe you can learn a lot from it!
4:00 Shouldn't the y-coordinates be negative?

THANK YOU so so much sir
You are welcome!
Sir it would be helpful if you made some videos on lagrangian mechanics. Thank you
Most of the GCM videos I have made so far have lagrangian mechanics in them. Have you subscribed?

@@DR_VIV ok sir thanks maybe these vids will be helpful for me in the future.
