On the other hand, a spring supported rigid mass which can move
in the direction of the spring & can also have angular motion has
two degrees of freedom.
A two-mass, two-spring system constrained to move in one
direction without rotation has also two d.o.f.

A flexible beam between two supports has an infinite
number of degrees of freedom.
Simple harmonic motion (SHM)
• The motion of a body to & fro about a fixed point is
called ‘Simple harmonic motion’.

Addition of two harmonic motions
When two harmonic motions of same frequency and
different amplitudes are added, the resultant motion is also
a simple harmonic motion.
Let there be two motions x1 A1 sin t & x2 A2 sin(t )

As x1 makes 600 with reference axis, total angle of resultant (60 15.84) 75.840
The resultant harmonic motion is x = 9.42sin(ωt + 75.84 0 )
