  4. Simple Harmonic Motion

  5. 13.1: Simple Harmonic Motion • The motion of an oscillating object depends on the restoring forces that make it go back and forth. • The simplest type of restoring force is a spring force. Hooke’s Law: Fs = -kx where k is the spring constant and x is the displacement • The negative sign indicates that the force is opposite to the displacement from the springs relaxed position. • Motion under the influence of the type of force described by Hooke’s Law is called: simple harmonic motion (SHM) • It is called harmonic because the motion can be described by sines and cosines.

  6. 13.1: Simple Harmonic Motion Fig 13.1, p. 420. A block on a spring undergoes simple harmonic motion. • The block is at the equilibrium position, x = 0. • The force of a hand, Fh, pulls the block for a displacement of x = A. The force of the spring is Fs. • At the time of the release, t = 0. • The time it takes to complete one period of oscillation is T. c) At t = T/4, the block is back at the equilibrium position. d) at t = T/2, the block is at x = -A. e) During the next half of the cycle, the motion is to the right. f) At t = T, the object is back at its starting position.

  7. 13.1: Simple Harmonic Motion displacement - the distance of an object, including direction (  x), from its equilibrium position. amplitude (A) - the magnitude of the maximum displacement of a mass from its equilibrium position. period (T) - the time needed to complete one cycle of oscillation. frequency (f) - the number of cycles per second. • frequency and period are related by: f = 1 T • The SI unit of frequency is 1/s, or hertz (Hz). This is also known as cycles per second.

  8. 13.1: Simple Harmonic Motion The Energy and Speed of a Spring-Mass System in SHM Recall - the total potential energy stored in a spring is: U = ½ kx2 The total kinetic and potential energies of a spring-mass system is equal to its total mechanical energy. E = K + U = ½ mv2 + ½ kx2 At a point of maximum displacement, (-A or +A), the instantaneous velocity is zero. Therefore all the energy at this point is potential. E = ½ m(0)2 + ½ k( A) 2 Simplifying, the total energy in SHM of a spring: E = ½ kA2 **Energy is proportional to the square of the amplitude**

  9. 13.1: Simple Harmonic Motion • Example 13.1: A 0.50 kg object is attached to a spring of spring constant 20 N/m along a horizontal frictionless surface. The object oscillates in simple harmonic motion and has a speed of 1.5 m/s at the equilibrium position. • What is the total energy of the system? • What is the amplitude?

  10. 13.1: Simple Harmonic Motion • Example 13.2: An object is attached to a spring of spring constant 60 N/m along a horizontal, frictionless surface. The spring is initially stretched by a force of 5.0 N on the object and let go. It takes the object 0.50 s to get back to its equilibrium position after its release. • What is the amplitude? • What is the period? • What is the frequency?

  11. Simple Harmonic Motion: Check for Understanding • A particle in SHM: • has variable amplitude • has a restoring force in the form of Hooke’s Law • has a frequency directly proportional to its period • has its position represented graphically by x(t) = at + b Answer: b

  12. 13.1: Simple Harmonic Motion: Check for Understanding • The maximum kinetic energy of a spring-mass system in SHM is equal to: • A • A2 • kA • kA2/2 Answer: d

  13. Simple Harmonic Motion: Check for Understanding 3. If the amplitude of an object in SHM is doubled: • how is the energy affected? • how is the maximum speed affected? • Answer: • Since E = ½kA2, the energy is four times as large. • b. Since vmax = k A , the maximum speed is twice as large. • m

  14. 13.1: Simple Harmonic Motion: Check for Understanding 4. If the period of a system in SHM is doubled, its frequency is: a. doubled b. halved c. four times as large d. one-quarter as large Answer: b, because f = 1/T

  15. 13.1: Simple Harmonic Motion: Check for Understanding 5. When a particle in SHM is at the equilibrium position, the potential energy of the system is: a. zero b. maximum c. negative d. none of the above Answer: a, because U = ½ kx2

  16. 13.2: Equations of Motion

  17. 13.2: Equations of Motion Simple Harmonic Motion can be defined using a reference circle as follows: “If a particle is undergoing uniform circular motion then its projection on any diameter of its circular path performs Simple Harmonic Motion.” http://www.cabrillo.edu/~jmccullough/Applets/Flash/Fluids,%20Oscillations%20and%20Waves/SHM1.swf For this chapter, we will be using radians. Make sure to adjust your calculator!  is measured in radians (rad)  is measured in radians/second (rad/sec) A is the radius of the reference circle.

  18. 13.2: Equations of Motion • The reference circle for horizontal motion • The shadow of an object in uniform circular motion has the same horizontal motion as the object on a spring in SHM. • The motion equation can be written x = A cos Ɵ or x = A cos t or x = A cos (2Πft)

  19. 13.2: Equations of Motion • The reference circle for vertical motion • The shadow of an object in uniform circular motion has the same vertical motion as the object oscillating on a spring in SHM. • The motion equation can be written as y = A sin Ɵ or y = A sin t or y = A sin (2Πft)

  20. 13.2: Equations of Motion equation of motion - gives the object’s position as a function of time. ex: for constant acceleration, we use kinematics formulas, such as x = vo + at. Simple harmonic motion does NOT have constant acceleration, so we can’t use kinematics equations. Recall,  = 2f = 2 Remember to set your calculator to radians! T

  21. 13.2: Equations of Motion Observe how sinusoidal curve is traced out on the moving paper. Since the object’s initial displacement is +A, the equation can be written as y = A cos t

  22. 13.2: Equations of Motion Two other equations of motion for an object in SHM are: velocity: v =  A acceleration:a = -2 A

  23. 13.2: Equations of Motion damped harmonic motion - without a driving force, the amplitude or energy of an oscillating body will decrease with time.

  24. 13.2: Equations of Motion T = 2  m Period of an object oscillating on a spring k The frequency f of the oscillation is equal to 1/T. Therefore, f = 1 k Frequency of an object oscillating on a spring 2  m or  = k m • Note that the time period depends on the mass of the object and the spring constant, but does not depend on the acceleration due to gravity. • The greater the mass, the longer the period. The greater the spring constant (the stiffer the spring), the shorter the period.

  25. 13.2: Equations of Motion A simple pendulum consists of a small, heavy object on a string. For small angles of oscillation (Ɵ < 10°), a good approximation for period is: T = 2  L Period of a simple pendulum g where L is the length of the string g is the acceleration due to gravity • Note that the period of the simple pendulum is independent of the mass of the bob and the amplitude of the oscillations.

  26. 13.2: Equations of Motion • Example 13.3: An object with a mass of 1.0 kg is attached to a spring with a spring constant of 10 N/m. The object is displaces by 3.0 cm from the equilibrium position and let go. • What is the amplitude A? • What is the period T? • What is the frequency f?

  27. 13.2: Equations of Motion • Example 13.4: The pendulum of a grandfather clock is 1.0 m long. • What is its period on the Earth? • What would its period be on the Moon where the acceleration due to gravity is 1.7 m/s2?

  28. 13.2: Equations of Motion • Example 13.5: The position of an object in simple harmonic motion is described by y = (0.25 m) sin (/2 t). Find the • amplitude A • period T • maximum speed

  33. 13.3: Wave Motion

  34. Warmup: Type Casting Waves that cause a medium to be disturbed in a direction perpendicular to the direction in which the wave is traveling are called transversewaves. When the medium is disturbed in a direction parallel to the direction in which the wave is traveling, the wave is called longitudinal. ********************************************************************************************* Complete the table below by identifying each wave as being either transverse or longitudinal. longitudinal transverse transverse longitudinal transverse

  35. 13.3: Wave Motion

  36. 13.3: Wave Motion wave motion - the propagation of a disturbance (energy and momentum) through a material. • Only energy is transferred, not matter. periodic wave - requires a disturbance from an oscillation source. • If the driving source maintains constant amplitude of the wave, the result is SHM. A periodic wave can be characterized by the following: amplitude - the magnitude of displacement of the particles of the material from their equilibrium position. wavelength - the distance between two successive crests or troughs. frequency - the number of wavelengths that passes by a given point in a second. wave speed - the speed of wave motion (speed of a crest or trough) given by: v =  f = /T where  is wavelength, f is frequency, and T is period

  37. 13.3: Wave Motion Example 13.6: A student reading her physics book on a lake dock notices that the distance between two incoming wave crests is about 2.4 m, and she then measures the time of arrival between wave crests to be 1.6 s. What is the approximate speed of the waves? Answer:  = 2.4 m T = 1.6 s v = /T = 2.4 m / 1.6 s v = 1.5 m/s

  38. 13.3: Wave Motion

  39. 13.3: Wave Motion transverse wave - the particle motion is perpendicular to the direction of the wave velocity. ex: guitar string; electromagnetic wave longitudinal wave - the particle oscillation is parallel to the direction of the wave velocity. • also called a compressional wave • can propagate in solids, liquids, or gases ex: sound waves Combination of transverse and longitudinal waves: ex: seismic, water View Wave Motion: http://paws.kettering.edu/~drussell/Demos/waves/wavemotion.html Rarefaction

  46. 13.4: Wave Properties

  47. 13.4: Wave Phenomena interference - when waves meet or overlap principle of superposition - at any time, the waveform of two or more interfering waves is given by the sum of the displacements of the individual waves at each point in the medium. constructive interference - if the amplitude of the combined wave is greater than that of any of the individual waves. destructive interference - if the amplitude of the combined wave is smaller than that of any of the individual waves. Wave Interference 2: http://zonalandeducation.com

  48. 13.4: Wave Phenomena

  49. total constructitve interference - when two waves of the same frequency and amplitude are exactly in phase. ex: the crest of one wave is aligned with the crest of another. total destructive interference - when two waves of the same frequency and amplitude are completely 180° out of phase. ex: the crest of one wave meets the trough of another.

  50. 13.4: Wave Phenomena • reflection - when a wave strikes and object or comes to a boundary of another medium and is at least partly bounced back. • ex: an echo is a reflected sound wave • ex: a mirror reflects light waves • When a wave is reflected from a fixed boundary, the reflected wave is inverted, or undergoes a 180° phase shift. • If the string is free to move at the boundary, there is no phase shift of the reflected wave.
