    Study Notes

    Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM)

    • SHM is a type of oscillatory motion where the restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement from the equilibrium position.

    • The differential equation for SHM in SI units is d²x/dt² = -36x.

    • Frequency (f) and period (T) are related by f = 1/T.

    Properties of SHM

    • The maximum displacement from the equilibrium position is called the amplitude.

    • The time taken for one complete oscillation is the period.

    • The number of oscillations per unit time is the frequency.

    • The acceleration of an object undergoing SHM is always directed towards the equilibrium position.

    Potential Energy in SHM

    • Potential energy (PE) is expressed as 0.1 π²x² Joules.

    • Mass (m) and frequency (f) are related: f = √(k/m).

    • Amplitude (A). x = A sin(ωt + φ) where ω is angular frequency.

    Total Energy

    • Total energy (E) is the sum of kinetic energy (KE) and potential energy (PE).

    • The total energy (E) of a body in SHM with mass (m) is 40J.

    • Speed while crossing the centre of the path is 6.324 cm/s.

    Time and Displacement in Simple Pendulum

    • A simple pendulum performs SHM with a period (T) of 4 seconds.

    • Time (t) after crossing the mean position for displacement equal to (1/3)amplitude = 0.2163 seconds.

    Simple Pendulum Restoring Force

    • Restoring force in SHM (when length = 1m) = 1.48 × 10⁻² N.

    • Restoring force depends on the displacement from the mean position.

    Change in Length of Second's Pendulum

    • Change in length of a second's pendulum (due to change in acceleration due to gravity) = 0.0051 m .

    Kinetic and Potential Energies

    • Kinetic energy is three times the potential energy at a distance of 4 cm from mean position (amplitude = 8 cm).

    • Potential Energy is proportional to square of displacement from mean position.

    • Kinetic energy is maximum at mean position.

    • Total energy of particle performing SHM remains constant.

    Oscillations of a Body Mass

    • T = 2π √(m/k), where T = Period, m = mass and k = spring constant.

    • Comparing masses of oscillators: m₁/(m₂)= 1/3

    Superposition of SHMs

    • Two SHMs with x₁ = 5sin (4πt + π/3) cm and x₂ = 3sin(4πt + π/4) cm can be superposed.

    • Resultant amplitude = 7.936 cm and epoch = 54° 23′ .

    Coupled Oscillations

    • A circular disc with mass (200 g ) suspended and twisted by 60° will perform angular SHM.

    • Maximum restoring torque is 0.04133 Nm.

    Magnet Oscillations in Magnetic Field

    • A magnet oscillating in a 1.6 x 10⁻⁵ Wb/m² uniform field oscillates with period 38.19 osc/min.

    Block Vibrating on Piston

    • A block of mass (m) on a piston vibrating at maximum frequency and amplitude 25 cm will not leave the piston if the frequency is less than certain value.

    • Maximum energy per unit mass is 1.25 J/kg.
