A point of mass m, affected by gravity, is obliged to be in a vertical plan on a parabola with equation z = a.r^2
a is a constant and r is the distance between the point of mass m and the OZ vertical axis. Write the Lagrange equations in the cases that the plan of the parabola is :
a) is fixed
b) it rotates with angular speed ω about the OZ axis.

in a) i considered:
x = r cosθ ||||| x' = r'cosθ - rθ'sinθ
y = r sinθ ||||| y' = r'sinθ + rθ'cosθ
z = a.r^2 ||||| z' = a.r^2' in b)
x = r cos(wt) ||||| x' = r'cos(wt) - rwsin(wt)
y = r sin(wt) ||||| y' = r'sin(wt)+ rwcos(wt)
z = a.r^2 |||||| z' = a.r^2' Is that right?
