  1. Lecture 20: Ideal Spring and Simple Harmonic Motion • New Material: Textbook Chapters 10.1 and 10.2

  2. relaxed position FX = 0 x x=0 Ideal Springs • Hooke’s Law:The force exerted by a spring is proportional to the distance the spring is stretched or compressed from its relaxed position. • FX = -k xWhere xis the displacement from the relaxed position and k is the constant of proportionality. (often called “spring constant”)

  3. Ideal Springs • Hooke’s Law:The force exerted by a spring is proportional to the distance the spring is stretched or compressed from its relaxed position. • FX = -k xWhere xis the displacement from the relaxed position and k is the constant of proportionality. (often called “spring constant”) relaxed position FX = -kx > 0 x • x  0 x=0

  4. Ideal Springs • Hooke’s Law:The force exerted by a spring is proportional to the distance the spring is stretched or compressed from its relaxed position. • FX = -k xWhere xis the displacement from the relaxed position and k is the constant of proportionality. (often called “spring constant”) relaxed position FX = - kx < 0 x • x > 0 x=0

  5. CORRECT Case 1 Case 2 Concept Question In Case 1 two people pull on the same end of a spring whose other end is attached to a wall. In Case 2, the same two people pull with the same forces, but this time on opposite ends of the spring. In which case does the spring stretch the most? 1. Case 12. Case 23. Same

  7. x +A CORRECT t -A Concept Question A mass on a spring oscillates back & forth with simple harmonic motion of amplitude A. A plot of displacement (x) versus time (t) is shown below. At what points during its oscillation is the speed of the block biggest? 1. When x = +A or -A (i.e. maximum displacement) 2. When x = 0 (i.e. zero displacement) 3. The speed of the mass is constant

  8. x +A CORRECT t -A Concept Question A mass on a spring oscillates back & forth with simple harmonic motion of amplitude A. A plot of displacement (x) versus time (t) is shown below. At what points during its oscillation is the magnitude of the acceleration of the block biggest? 1. When x = +A or -A (i.e. maximum displacement) 2. When x = 0 (i.e. zero displacement) 3. The acceleration of the mass is constant

  9. Springs and Simple Harmonic Motion X=0 X=A; v=0; a=-amax X=0; v=-vmax; a=0 X=-A; v=0; a=amax X=0; v=vmax; a=0 X=A; v=0; a=-amax X=-A X=A

  10. Simple Harmonic Motion: x(t) = [A]cos(t) v(t) = -[A]sin(t) a(t) = -[A2]cos(t) x(t) = [A]sin(t) v(t) = [A]cos(t) a(t) = -[A2]sin(t) OR Period = T (seconds per cycle) Frequency = f = 1/T (cycles per second) Angular frequency =  = 2f = 2/T For spring: 2 = k/m xmax = A vmax = A amax = A2
