What is Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM)?

Simple harmonic motion (SHM) is a type of periodic motion where the restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement from the equilibrium position and acts in the opposite direction.

Pendulum Period

The time period of a simple pendulum is the time taken for one complete oscillation, and it is determined by the length of the pendulum and the acceleration due to gravity.

Spring-Mass System Period

The time period of a spring-mass system is determined by the mass of the object and the spring constant, which measures the stiffness of the spring.

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

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

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

  • Maximum restoring torque is 0.04133 Nm.
