Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum

A museum in Michigan which is dedicated to displaying a variety of animatronics and other coin-operated machines. It was originally owned by the late Marvin Yagoda, until he died just after New Year's of 2017, when ownership was transferred to his son, Jeremy Yagoda. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the museum was forced to shut down temporarily, until Michigan reaches Phase 5 of containment, and was faced with financial trouble due to maintenance on the machines, but thanks to a GoFundMe, they were able to remain afloat. Though Marvin died in 2017, he is attributed with the quotations "Wouldn’t the world be better off if we took nonsense more seriously?", and "Don’t use time or words carelessly; neither can be retrieved".

Furthermore, the "fabloo" band known as "Tally Hall" created an album named after Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum, and Marvin himself appeared in an episode of the Tally Hall internet show
Person 1: I heard there's this one place with some sort of weird robots and stuff down on Orchard Lake Road, called Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum. Anyone wanna come with me?

Person 2: Sure, I think I heard some neat stuff about it online

I’m so hard done by. I should force more irrelevance into peoples lives because I’m Meghan Markle and I can’t go a day without being in the news with more of my entitled views.

Don’t be a Meghan.

Mechanic’s Special

A bullshit term car sellers use when they’re trying to scam someone by selling them their trashed car instead of sending it to the scrapyard.
Buyer: *Searching for cars on OfferUp*

Seller’s ad: MECHANIC’S SPECIAL!!! 2020 Mustang for sale, engine and transmission are completely blown. The front end is missing due to a high speed collision. Owes $500 in tags and I lost the pink slip. Easy fix, great deal! $15,000 price is firm.

Lagrangian Mechanics

Lagrangian Mechanics is the reformulation of Newtonian Mechanics that utilizes the Lagrangian defined by

L=T-U

where

T= total kinetic energy of a system of particles
U= sum of the potential energy functions of a system of particles

In other branches of physics, the Lagrangian is defined as the function

L: TQ--> R

Where Q is the configuration space, a subset of R^3N
such that the action, defined as the functional,

A(q)= int(L) dt
when it reaches stationary value at {q(t)}, will male {q(t)} the equations of motion.
Note, int() means the integration notation with the limits of integration being positive an negative infinity, respectively.

It is shown, using the Calculus of Variations, that the equations of motion are in such a way that they satisfy the Lagrange's Equations of motion

D(d(L)/dv)-d(L)/dq=0
Where D is the differential operator with respect to time, d/dx stands for partial differentiation, and v is the generalized velocity.
