What Is Lagrangian And Hamiltonian?


Open in App
Solution

  1. The equation of Lagrangian can be written as: L=T-V where L is the Lagrangian, Tis the kinetic energy, V is the potential energy.
  2. The equation of Hamiltonian can be written as: H=T+V where H is the Hamiltonian, Tis the kinetic energy, V is the potential energy.
  3. An Lagrangian is the reformation of the classical mechanics.
  4. Lagrangian exists as the difference between kinetic and potential energy.
  5. Lagrangian is found by the Italian mathematician in the year 1788.
  6. Lagrangian represented by cartesian coordinates.
  7. Hamiltonian is the mathematically sophisticated formulation of classical mechanics.
  8. Hamiltonian exists as the sum of the kinetic and potential energy.
  9. Hamiltonian is found in the year 1833 by William Rowan Hamilton.
  10. Hamiltonian is represented by the canonical coordinates.
