Study Notes
Motion Type
- Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM) is characterized by oscillatory movement around an equilibrium point.
Displacement and Proportionality
- In SHM, the restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement from the equilibrium position.
Frequency Influencing Factors
- Frequency of SHM is affected by the mass of the object and the spring constant in a spring-mass system.
Restoring Force Position
- When the restoring force is at its maximum, the object is at its maximum displacement from the equilibrium position.
Time Period Considerations
- The time period of SHM is independent of the mass of the object; it only depends on the spring constant and the mass in a spring-mass system.
Frequency and Spring Constant Relationship
- Increasing the spring constant results in an increase in the frequency of SHM.
