Pendulum Example - Lagrangian. ... In this case, it can only move one way, so theta will work. Now I need the kinetic energy and the potential in terms of theta and its time derivatives.

Law of Conservation of Energy Examples. Example 1: Pendulum. A pendulum of mass mmm swings from a height h. At the highest point, the pendulum has maximum potential energy and zero kinetic energy.
