      In the considered paper the theory of conformal metric in Riemannian geometry is applied to characterize the geometry of the classical Hamiltonian dynamics with the conformal Eisenhart metric. The authors obtain the Ricci curvatures, the scalar curvatures, the geodesic equations, the Jacobi equations, and the equation of a certain flow. The relation between the curvatures with Eisenhart metric and its conformal metric is clearly presented. As in the examples, the conformal curvatures, the equation of a certain flow, and the numerical solutions of the geodesics, generalized momenta, and the Jacobi field along the geodesics are obtained.
