  3. Brachistochrone problem: (solved by Newton in 1696) http://mathworld.wolfram.com/BrachistochroneProblem.html A particle of weight mg travels frictionlessly down a path of shape y(x). What is the shape of the path y(x) that minimizes the travel time from y(0)=0 to y(p)=-2 ? PHY 711 Fall 2013 -- Lecture 6
