Let $\Liegp{G}=\SOrth{n}$ act naturally on $\R^n$. Compute the canonical lifted action on $T^* \R^n$.
Compute the momentum map $\psi : T^* \R^n \to \sorth{n}^*$ of the canonical action of $\SOrth{n}$.
Continuing with the previous question, verify that the Hamiltonian vector field $Y_f$ equals the canonical lift of $\xi_M$ when $f = \psi^* \xi$.
