please solve with steps

a bead of mass m slides freely on a frictionless circular wire of radius b that rotates in a horizontal plane about a point on the circular wire with a constant angular velocity w find lagrange's equation of motion of the bead and reaction??

all steps needed :confused:

the system has two degrees of freedom (2 suitably defined angles)
form the Lagrangian
differentiate to get equations of motion
