Lagrange Function for a certain problem

[headbam]

Homework Statement

A particle of mass m is connected by a massless spring of force constant k and unstressed
length r0 to a point P that is moving along a horizontal circular path of radius a at a
uniform angular velocity ω. Verify the Lagrange-Function!

Homework Equations

Could there be a typing error in the book (the book provided the solution which can be seen in the file "function.png". My own solution just differs in the term with r and has 1/2*m*r^2*theta' instead of 1/2*m*r*theta' like shown in the book. However i think my solution is right or can anybody find a mistake?

The Attempt at a Solution

x[1](t):=a*cos(omega*t)#`this is the x-coordinate of P
y[1](t):=a*sin(omega*t)#`this is the y-coordinate of P
x[2](t):=x[1](t)+r(t)*cos(theta(t))#`this is the x-coordinate of m
y[2](t):=y[1](t)+r(t)*sin(theta(t))#`this is the y-coordinate of m
T := (1/2)*m*((diff(x[2](t), t))^2+(diff(y[2](t), t))^2)
V :=(1/2)*k*(r-r[0])^2
L=T-V

I attached a drawing of the exercise and two lagrange functions (from the book and my solution) and a Maple file for convenience.

Your answer is almost certainly correct. That term in the books answer doesn't have consistent dimensions with the terms around it.

Ah yeah. I should have checked the dimensions as well! Thanks for the advice!
