34. Harmonlc motion

time

An object moving along the x-axis is said to exhibit simple harmonic

motion if its position as a function of time varies as

x(t) = Xo+ Acos(wt + ).

The object oscillates about the equilibrium position xo. If we choose the
originof our coordinate system such that xÍ = 0, then the displacement x
from the equilibrium position as a function of time is given by
x(t) =Acos(wt + ).

maximum displacement of
negative x

 direction. Simple harmonic motion is repetitive. The period Tis the time
T takes the object to complete one oscillation and return to the starting
position.
Ihe angular frequency wis given by w=2n/T. The angular frequency is
measured in radians per second.
The inverse of the period is the frequencyf =1/T. The
W/2n of the motion gives the number of complete frequency f =1/T=
time. It is measured in units of Hertz, (1 oscllations per unit
Hz = 1/s).
The velocity of the object as a
function of time is given by
v(t) = -w Asin(wt +),and the
acceleration is given by
a(t) = wAcos(wt + ¢)=-w'x.

It gains speed as it moves

towards the equilibrium position because its
acceleration is in the direction of its velocity. When it is at the equilibrium
position, the acceleration is zero, but the object has maximum
speed. It
overshoots the equilibrium position and starts slowing down, because
acceleration is now in a direction opposite to the direction of its the
velocity. Neglecting friction, it comes to a stop when the spring is
compressed by a distance Aand then accelerates back towards the
eguilibrium position. It again overshoots and comes to a stop at the initial

repeats. The object oscillates back and forth. It executes simple harmonic
motion.
The angular frequency of the motion isW =V(k/m),
the period is T= 2rv(m/k), and
the frequency is f = (1/(2n))v(k/m).

Now answer any these questions:

1) Aparticle oscillates with simple harmonic motion, so that its

displacement varies according to the expression x=(5 cm)cos(2t +n/6)
where xisin centimeters andtis in seconds. At t= 0find its velocity. 1

2) For the data in part (1) given above calculate acceleration at t=0.
3) A20 g particle moves in simple harmonic motion with a frequency 1
of 3oscillations per second and an amplitude of 5 cm. Through what
total distance does the particle move during one cycle of its motion? 2
OR
4) AmasS-spring system oscillates with an amplitude of 3.5 cm. If the
force constant of the spring of 250 N/m and the mass is 0.5 kg,
determine the mechanical energy of the system,

35. Uniform circular motion is a specific type of motion in which an object

travels in a circle with a constant speed. For example, any point on a
propeller spinning at a constant rate is executing uniform circular motion,
Other examples are the second, mìnute, and hour hands of a watch. It is
remarkable that points on these rotating objects are actually accelerating,
although the rotation rate is a constant. To see this, we must analyze the
motion in terms of vectors.
In one-dimensional kinematics, objects with a constant speed have zero
acceleration. However, in two- and three-dimensional kinematics, even if
the speed is a constant, a particle can have acceleration if it moves along a
curved trajectory such asa circle. In this case the velocity vector
ischanging.
