Is it possible to calculate the torsion constant of a rod given the shear modulus, moment of inertia and length?

Name of concept: Replace classical variables by quantum operators

Why don't we see the covariant derivative in classical mechanics?

If Newton's third law is true, why do things compress?

Why does a spinning rod create transverse waves?

Why is this a non-holonomic constraint?

Is there a deep reason why action comes from a local lagrangian?

Hamiltonian of non-regular Lagrangian is well-defined on phase space

Why can't the constancy of the speed of light be deduced from classical physics?
