Zimmerman and Fredrick I. Olness WebSite: www.physics.smu.edu/~olness darkwing.uoregon.edu/~phys600/ MathSource Number: 0206-862 ISBN 0-201-53796-6 =============================================================================== NOTES AND ERRATA: ------------------ 2nd Edition: Chpt.6, Problem 6.3.3 p.174: Sphere Rolling on a Fixed Sphere. 1st Edition: Chpt.4, Problem 4.2.5 p.343: Sphere Rolling on a Fixed Sphere. The figure in the first edition was incorrect. This is fixed in the 2nd edition. The second angle (theta-2) is measured from the contact point of the two spheres. Although this definition may be less conventional, it simplifies our particular problem. We thank Kevin J. McCann for finding this error. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- We will post other notes and errata here as issues arise.
