Destabilizing forces N Fnet = 0 W
Destabilizing forces N Fnet = away from equil W
Destabilizing forces Fnet = away from equil N W destabilizing forces always push the system further away from equilibrium
restoring forces N Fnet = 0 W
restoring forces N Fnet = toward equil. W
restoring forces N Fnet = toward equil. W Restoring forces always push the system back toward equilibrium
Pendulum N W
Displacement vs time Displaced systems oscillate around stable equil. points amplitude Equil. point period (=T)
Simple harmonic motion Pure Sine-like curve T Equil. point T= period = time for 1 complete oscillation = 1/T f = frequency = # of oscillations/time

Not all oscillations are nice Sine curves A Equil. point T f=1/T
Natural frequency f= (1/2p)k/m f= (1/2p)g/l
Driven oscillators natural freq. = f0 f = 0.4f0 f = 1.1f0 f = 1.6f0

Confined waves Only waves with wavelengths that just fit in survive (all others cancel themselves out)
Allowed frequencies l= 2L f0=V/l = V/2L Fundamental tone f1=V/l = V/L=2f0 l=L 1st overtone l=(2/3)L f2=V/l=V/(2/3)L=3f0 2nd overtone l=L/2 f3=V/l=V/(1/2)L=4f0 3rd overtone l=(2/5)L f4=V/l=V/(2/5)L=5f0 4th overtone
Ukuleles, etc l0 = L/2; f0 = V/2L l1= L; f1 = V/L =2f0 l2= 2L/3; f2 = 3f0 L l3= L/2; f3 = 4f0 Etc… (V depends on the Tension & thickness Of the string)
Sound wave stationary source Wavelength same in all directions
Sound wave moving source Wavelength in forward direction is shorter (frequency is higher) Wavelength in backward direction is longer (frequency is higher)
Waves from a stationary source Wavelength same in all directions
Waves from a moving source v Wavelength in backward direction is longer (frequency is higher) Wavelength in forward direction is shorter (frequency is higher)
