Oscillations

Oscillations (whether sinusoidal or otherwise) have some common characteristics:1. They take place around an equilibrium position;2. The motion is periodic and repeats with each cycle.

Periodic MotionPeriodic MotionPeriod: time required for one cycle of periodic motion

Frequency: number of oscillations per unit time

The frequency unit is called a hertz (Hz):

Simple Harmonic MotionSimple Harmonic Motion

A spring exerts a restoring force that is proportional to the displacement from equilibrium:

Simple Harmonic MotionSimple Harmonic MotionA mass on a spring has a displacement as a function of time that is a sine or cosine curve:

A is called the amplitude of the motion.

Simple Harmonic MotionSimple Harmonic MotionIf we call the period of the motion T (this is the time to complete one full cycle) we can write the position as a function of time as:

It is then straightforward to show that the position at time t + T is the same as the position at time t (one period earlier), as we would expect.

Connections between Uniform Circular Motion and Simple Harmonic Motion


An object in simple harmonic motion has the same motion as one component of an object in uniform circular motion:

Uniform circular motion projected into one dimension is simple harmonic motion (SHM).

Consider a particle rotating ccw, with the angle f increasing linearly with time:

cosx A

, so if 0 at 0.t tt

( ) cosx t A t





Here, the object in circular motion has an angular speed of

where T is the period of motion of the object in simple harmonic motion.



The position as a function of time:

The angular frequency:


Connections between Uniform Circular Motion and Simple Harmonic MotionThe velocity as a function of time:

And the acceleration:

Both of these are found by taking components of the circular motion quantities.

The Period of a Mass on a SpringThe Period of a Mass on a Spring Since the force on a mass on a spring is proportional to the displacement, and also to the acceleration, we find that .

Substituting the time dependencies of a and x gives:

In simple harmonic motion (SHM), the acceleration, and thus the net force, are both proportional to and oppositely directed from the displacement from the equilibrium position.

SHM Prototype Experiment Consider Fig. (a). An air-track glider attached to a spring. The glider is pulled a distance A from its rest position and released. Fig. (b) shows a graph of the motion of the glider, as measured each 1/20 of a second. The graphs on the right show the position and velocity of the glider from the same measurements. We see that A=0.17 m and T=1.60 s. Therefore the oscillation frequency of the system is f = 0.625 Hz

Two Oscillating Systems The diagram shows two identical masses attached to two identical springs and resting on a horizontal frictionless surface. Spring 1 is stretched to 5 cm, spring 2 is stretched to 10 cm, and the masses are released at the same time.

Which mass reaches the equilibrium position first?

Because k and m are the same, the systems have the same period, so they must return to equilibrium at the same time.

The frequency and period of SHM are independent of amplitude.

Clicker Question 1 Shown are two mass + spring systems. The blocks have the same mass. When set into oscillation, what is the relation between the oscillation periods T1,2 of the two systems?

“There is no potential energy at x=0 since U=1/2kx^2=0, therefore allowing all the energy of the spring to be allocated toward KE .

Simple Harmonic Motion:

x(t) = [A]cos(t)v(t) = -[A]sin(t)a(t) = -[A2]cos(t)

x(t) = [A]sin(t)v(t) = [A]cos(t)a(t) = -[A2]sin(t)
