This lecture introduces the concept of a hemispherical slider, consisting of two balls with restricted degrees of freedom, one being heavier and the other lighter. The system is driven by a motor, resulting in a rotational motion that leads to oscillatory behavior and new equilibrium points. By adjusting the rotation speed, the dynamics of the system can be modified, showcasing different degrees of freedom.
