In the Hamiltonian form of classical dynamics, canonical conjugates are a pair of cariables which together satisfy Hamilton's equations of motion:
a) dH/dp=dq/dt
b)dH/dq=-dp/dt
eg the Hamiltonian for a simple harmonic oscillator looks like
H=(p^2)/2m +1/2kq^2
(p=momentum and q=displacement from equilibrium, k=spring const, m=mass)
dH/dp=p/m=speed
dH/dq=kq=(negative) of force

Canonical means "accepted" or "officially recognised", the closest example I can think of is in chemistry, where electron resonance gives bonds intermediate properties. The canonical form does not show these properties e.g. benzene has 6 of these intermediate bonds, but the canonical form shows 3 double bonds and 3 single bonds, it is considered to be a more traditional representation.
Also, Paul McBride is a dick.

The letter "r" is not an abbreviation for "are". Are you so pressed for time that you can't spell out this 3 letter word? I kw the ans 2 ur ?
