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.
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.
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.
13.1: Simple Harmonic Motion The Energy and Speed of a Spring-Mass System in SHM Recall from Chapter 5, the total potential energy stored in a spring is: U = ½ kx2 On Gold Sheet 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**

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.” • View the animation: • http://137.229.52.100/physics/p103/applets/ref_circle.html • 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.
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 cost.
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.
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. •The equations of motion for an object in SHM is a combination of simple harmonic and uniform circular motion. They are: y = A sin (t + ) where y is the vertical displacement (in meters) A is the amplitude (in meters) is the angular frequency of motion (in rad/sec) is the phase constant (in rad) Recall, = 2f = 2 Remember to set your calculator to radians! T • is the phase constant. It is determined by the initial displacement and velocity direction. It will help you decide whether to use the sine or cosine function to describe a particular case of SHM.
13.2: Equations of Motion • If y=0 at t=0, and the motion is initially upward, the curve corresponds with a sine wave. • If the initial condition has positive amplitude, the wave, the curve corresponds with a cosine wave. • Here, the motion is initially downward and y = 0 at t = 0. A is negative; it is a sine wave. • Finally, the initial amplitude negative; it is a cosine wave.
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
13.2: Equations of Motion Two other equations of motion for an object in SHM are: velocity: v = A cos (t + ) acceleration:a = -2 A sin (t + ) = - 2 y

13.2: Equations of Motion damped harmonic motion - without a driving force, the amplitude or energy of an oscillating body will decrease with time. View simulation: http://physics.bu.edu/~duffy/semester1/c19_damped_sim.html
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.
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 On Gold Sheet 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.

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
