    Study Notes

    Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM)

    • Figure 1: A graph illustrating SHM (Simple Harmonic Motion) showing a sinusoidal pattern for displacement over time.

    • Amplitude: The maximum displacement from equilibrium. Measured in centimeters (cm) or meters (m).

    • Period (T): The time taken for one complete oscillation. Measured in seconds (s).

    • Frequency (f): The number of oscillations per second. Calculated as f = 1/T. Measured in Hertz (Hz).

    • Displacement Equation: y = y₀ cos(ωt + φ), where:

      • y₀ is the amplitude
      • ω is the angular frequency (ω = 2πf)
      • t is time
      • φ is the phase constant

    Velocity and Acceleration in SHM

    • Velocity Equation: The rate of change of displacement. In SHM, the velocity equation is derived from the displacement equation and is also sinusoidal.

    • Acceleration Equation: The rate of change of velocity. In SHM, the acceleration is also sinusoidal and directly proportional to the displacement, but in the opposite direction of the displacement.

    Specific SHM Example

    • Equation of a particle: x = 10 sin (ωt), where x is in meters and t is in seconds. The period of oscillation is 30 s.

    • Amplitude: 10 (m).

    • Maximum Velocity: Calculated from the maximum value of the equation.

    • Maximum Acceleration: Calculated from the maximum value of the equation.

    • Displacement, Velocity, Acceleration at t = 15s: Given specific values in the example

    Displacement as a Sine Function

    • Displacement Equation (general): x = A sin(ωt + φ), or x= A cos (ωt +φ) where,

    • A is the amplitude (max displacement),

    • ω is angular frequency, and,

    • φ is phase

    Acceleration of SHM

    • Acceleration as a Function of Displacement: a = -ω²x. This proves the acceleration is directly proportional to displacement but is in the opposite direction of displacement.

    Force Graph in SHM

    • Amplitude in a Force graph example: The amplitude is determined from maximum force.

    • Angular Frequency, Period, and Max Velocity: These values are derived from the characteristics of the force graph in SHM.

    SHM with Graph and Equation

    • Displacement Equation: x = 15 sin(14πt + 2π) defines a particle undergoing SHM (time given in seconds). -Amplitude (A) and phase calculation.

    • Displacement and Velocity at t=0.6 s: Displacement and velocity values calculated from the given equation.

    • Acceleration when t=0.6 s: Calculate the acceleration.

    Potential Energy and Force

    • Relationship between Potential Energy and Displacement: In SHM a graph showing Potential Energy v/s Displacement is a parabola.

    • Force when x= 0.2 m: The force at a specified displacement can be calculated from the Potential Energy curve.

    Mass Vibrating in SHM (Numerical Example)

    • Frequency (f): Derived from the given equation: x = 0.38 sin (6.50t). The angular frequency is 6.50 radians/sec.

    • Total Energy: Calculating the total energy in SHM from the formula.

    • Kinetic and Potential Energy: Evaluating kinetic and potential energies at x = 9.0 cm.

    • Graph of x vs t: Sketching the graph of x vs t for the given equation.

    SHM with Maximum Displacement

    • Amplitude: Calculated based on maximum displacement.

    • Frequency: Calculated from the period of repetition (4.0 s).

    • Angular velocity (ω): Calculation of angular frequency.

    • Equation for SHM: Deriving the equation for the particle's motion.

    • Maximum Velocity: Calculated based on the derived equation.

    • Acceleration Graph (a vs t): Sketching the graph of acceleration versus time.

    • Position at Specific Time: Determining particle position at t = 50 ms.
