The result is that three-dimensional motion of a particle can be viewed as instantaneous planar motion plus a rotation of the plane of motion around the instantaneous radius vector from the origin to the particle. The kinematic and dynamic equations in this system are developed and applied to two examples, the spherical pendulum and a problem in orbit motion.Read More
