What is simple harmonic motion? SHM is a vibration about an equilibrium position in which a RESTORING FORCE IS PROPORTIONAL TO THE DISPLACEMENT FROM EQUILIBRIUM. The restoring force is the force of the spring The restoring force is the force weight of the bob

force, velocity, and acceleration At equilibrium: – Force is ZERO – (Mg = kX) – Acceleration is ZERO (a = F/M) – Velocity is MAXIMUM At maximum displacement: – Force is MAXIMUM – Acceleration is MAXIMUM (a=F/M) – Velocity is ZERO

Hooke’s Law In most mass-spring systems, the restoring force exerted on the mass by a spring is in the opposite direction as the displacement, its magnitude is directly proportional to the displacement of the mass stretched or compressed from its equilibrium position. F is the force on the spring (N) k is the spring constant (N/m) x is the displacement from equilibrium (m)

Hooke’s Law Hooke’s Law applies to THIS region ONLY!

A spring with a spring constant of 10 newtons per meter is stretched 0.5 meter. What force must be applied to the spring? F S = kx F S = (10 N/m)(0.5 m) F S = 5.0 N Example #1

What is the spring constant of an elastic object if it stretches 2.0 centimeters when pulled with a force of 30 newtons? F S = kx k = F S / x k = (30 N)/(0.02 m) k = 1500 N/m Example #2

A stretched or compressed spring has potential energy At equilibrium position, PE elastic is zero. At maximum displacement, PE elastic is maximum

Example #3 A 20.-newton weight is attached to a spring, causing it to stretch, as shown in the diagram. a.What is the spring constant of this spring? b.What is the potential energy is stored in the spring?

1.The motion of Earth orbiting the sun is periodic. Is this motion simple harmonic? Why or why not? 2.In a pinball games, the force exerted by a compressed spring is used to release a ball, if the distance the spring is compressed is doubled, how will the force acting on the ball change? If the spring is replaced with one that is half as stiff, how will the force acting on the ball change? Questions
