Some Good Exercise Book For Classical Mechanics.

AI Thread Summary
For classical mechanics, a recommended resource is the online notes from Caltech, which provide a solid foundation. The book "Goldstein Classical Mechanics" is suggested as a comprehensive but advanced option, offering deep insights even for seasoned readers. Users are encouraged to seek out solution manuals for additional support. The discussion highlights the importance of finding well-explained exercises in Lagrangian and Hamiltonian mechanics. Overall, these resources can significantly aid in understanding classical physics concepts.

I need a good book, or in other words a book and it's solution manual if available on line - in classical physics.
Some Lagrange, Hamiltonian exercises, with good explanation.
Thanks in advance.

I have recently been really interested in the derivation of Hamiltons Principle. On my research I found that with the term ##m \cdot \frac{d}{dt} (\frac{dr}{dt} \cdot \delta r) = 0## (1) one may derivate ##\delta \int (T - V) dt = 0## (2). The derivation itself I understood quiet good, but what I don't understand is where the equation (1) came from, because in my research it was just given and not derived from anywhere. Does anybody know where (1) comes from or why from it the...
