A Curious Use of Extra Dimension in Classical Mechanics
2021
Extra dimensions can be utilized to simplify problems in classical mechanics, offering new insights. Here we show a simple example of how the motion of a test particle under the influence of an inverse-quadratic potential in 1D is equivalent to that of another test particle moving freely in 2D Euclidean space and 3D Minkowskian space.
