(a) Consider a body which moves down a plane with friction and such that the inclination of the plane varies with time. Justify whether: (i) the constrains are holonomic or non-holonomic; (ii) the constrains are scleronomic or rheonomic; (iii) the system is conservative or dissipative. (b) Given the integral I??t1?t2??(x3?x?2+xt2)dt, obtain a differential equation for the function x(t) which makes the integral I extremal.
