[UPSC CSE 2026] Rigid Body Dynamics (Q171, 15M)
Consider a symmetric top of mass M, with its tip held fixed, rotating in a gravitational field. Assuming that the origins of the fixed and body coordinate systems coincide, determine the Lagrangian of the top. Are there any angular momenta which are conserved? If yes, find their expressions.
