Chapter 13 Vibrations and Waves
Heinrich Hertz (1857-1894) • Periodic motion • Periodic (harmonic) motion – self-repeating motion • Oscillation – periodic motion in certain direction • Period (T) – a time duration of one oscillation • Frequency (f) – the number of oscillations per unit time, SI unit of frequency 1/s = Hz (Hertz)
Motion of the spring-mass system • Hooke’s law: • The force always acts toward the equilibrium position: restoring force • The mass is initially pulled to a distance A and released from rest • As the object moves toward the equilibrium position, F and a decrease, but v increases
Motion of the spring-mass system • At x = 0, F and a are zero, but v is a maximum • The object’s momentum causes it to overshoot the equilibrium position • The force and acceleration start to increase in the opposite direction and velocity decreases • The motion momentarily comes to a stop at x = - A
Motion of the spring-mass system • It then accelerates back toward the equilibrium position • The motion continues indefinitely • The motion of a spring mass system is an example of simple harmonic motion
Simple harmonic motion • Simple harmonic motion – motion that repeats itself and the displacement is a sinusoidal function of time
Amplitude • Amplitude – the magnitude of the maximum displacement (in either direction)
The force law for simple harmonic motion • From the Newton’s Second Law: • For simple harmonic motion, the force is proportional to the displacement • Hooke’s law:
Energy in simple harmonic motion • Potential energy of a spring: • Kinetic energy of a mass:
Chapter 13 Problem 11 A simple harmonic oscillator has a total energy E. (a) Determine the kinetic and potential energies when the displacement is one-half the amplitude. (b) For what value of the displacement does the kinetic energy equal the potential energy?
Pendulums • Simple pendulum: • Restoring torque: • From the Newton’s Second Law: • For small angles
Pendulums • Simple pendulum: • On the other hand

Forced oscillations and resonance • Swinging without outside help – free oscillations • Swinging with outside help – forced oscillations • If ωd is a frequency of a driving force, then forced oscillations can be described by: • Resonance:
Forced oscillations and resonance • Tacoma Narrows Bridge disaster (1940)
Wave motion • A wave is the motion of a disturbance • All waves carry energy and momentum
Types of waves • Mechanical – governed by Newton’s laws and exist in a material medium (water, air, rock, ect.) • Electromagnetic – governed by electricity and magnetism equations, may exist without any medium • Matter – governed by quantum mechanical equations
Types of waves • Depending on the direction of the displacement relative to the direction of propagation, we can define wave motion as: • Transverse – if the direction of displacement is perpendicular to the direction of propagation • Longitudinal – if the direction of displacement is parallel to the direction of propagation
Types of waves • Depending on the direction of the displacement relative to the direction of propagation, we can define wave motion as: • Transverse – if the direction of displacement is perpendicular to the direction of propagation • Longitudinal – if the direction of displacement is parallel to the direction of propagation
Superposition of waves • Superposition principle – overlapping waves algebraically add to produce a resultant (net) wave • Overlapping solutions of the linear wave equation do not in any way alter the travel of each other
Sinusoidal waves • One of the most characteristic solutions of the linear wave equation is a sinusoidal wave: • A – amplitude, φ – phase constant
Wavelength • “Freezing” the solution at t = 0 we obtain a sinusoidal function of x: • Wavelengthλ – smallest distance (parallel to the direction of wave’s travel) between repetitions of the wave shape
Wave number • On the other hand: • Angular wave number: k = 2π / λ
Angular frequency • Considering motion of the point at x = 0 • we observe a simple harmonic motion (oscillation) : • For simple harmonic motion: • Angular frequencyω
Frequency, period • Definitions of frequency and period are the same as for the case of rotational motion or simple harmonic motion: • Therefore, for the wave velocity
Wave velocity • v is a constant and is determined by the properties of the medium • E.g., for a stretched string with linear density μ = m/l under tension T
Chapter 13 Problem 41 A harmonic wave is traveling along a rope. It is observed that the oscillator that generates the wave completes 40.0 vibrations in 30.0 s. Also, a given maximum travels 425 cm along the rope in 10.0 s. What is the wavelength?
Interference of waves • Interference – a phenomenon of combining waves, which follows from the superposition principle • Considering two sinusoidal waves of the same amplitude, wavelength, and direction of propagation • The resultant wave:
Interference of waves • If φ = 0 (Fully constructive) • If φ = π (Fully destructive) • If φ = 2π/3 (Intermediate)
Reflection of waves at boundaries • Within media with boundaries, solutions to the wave equation should satisfy boundary conditions. As a results, waves may be reflected from boundaries • Hard reflection – a fixed zero value of deformation at the boundary – a reflected wave is inverted • Soft reflection – a free value of deformation at the boundary – a reflected wave is not inverted
