The Lagrangian for a heavy symmetric top of mass M, pinned at point O which is a distance l from the centre of mass, is
L=21I1(θ˙2+ϕ˙2sin2θ)+21I3(ψ˙+ϕ˙cosθ)2−Mglcosθ
(i) Starting with the fixed space frame (e~1,e~2,e~3) and choosing O at its origin, sketch the top with embedded body frame axis e3 being the symmetry axis. Clearly identify the Euler angles (θ,ϕ,ψ).
(ii) Obtain the momenta pθ,pϕ and pψ and the Hamiltonian H(θ,ϕ,ψ,pθ,pϕ,pψ). Derive Hamilton's equations. Identify the three conserved quantities.
