  • The Darwin force is usually small; so it is often neglected.
    Only the Coriolis force depends on the velocity in the moving
    frame. The Coriolis force is very important in largescale
    motions on Earth. For example, pressure balance with
    the Coriolis force dominates the (geostrophic) motion of
    weather systems that comprise the climate.
    The centrifugal force is important, for example, in obtaining
    orbital equilibria in gravitationally attracting systems.


    Lie symmetries and conservation laws
    Emmy Noether
    Recall from Definition 1.2.3 that a Lie
    group depends smoothly on its parameters.
    (See Appendix B for more details.)
    Definition 2.3.1 (Lie symmetry) Asmooth
    transformation of variables ft; qg depending
    on a single parameter s defined by
    ft; qg 7! f t(t; q; s); q(t; q; s)g ;
    that leaves the action S =
    R
    Ldt invariant
    is called a Lie symmetry of the action.
    Theorem 2.3.1 (Noether’s theorem) Each Lie symmetry of the action
    for a Lagrangian system defined on a manifold M
