1. 3.1 Oscillations Make a list of things which oscillate or vibrate tides Skate boarder in a half pipe pendulum Sun spot activity Mass on a spring Describe what happens to the displacement from the equilibrium position when the mass is raised up 2 cm and let go

2. 3.1 Oscillations Make a list of things which oscillate or vibrate tides Skate boarder in a half pipe pendulum Sun spot activity Mass on a spring Describe what happens to the displacement from the equilibrium position when the mass is raised up 2 cm and let go Equilibrium position 2 cm

3. 3.1 Oscillations Describe what happens to the displacement from the equilibrium position when the mass is raised up 2 cm and let go Equilibrium position 2 cm The displacement: 1. Decreases while going down 2. Increases while going down 3. Decreases while going up 4. Increases while going up

4. http://www.stmary.ws/highschool/physics/home/notes/waves/default.htm Amplitude: max displacement from equilibrium ( m) Free oscillations: occur when no friction is present, so amplitude is constant Time period T : time for one complete oscillation ( seconds) Frequency : the number of complete oscillations each second ( Hertz) Angular frequency w : the number of radians each second ( rad/sec) w = 2 π T

5. Remember Remember T = 1 f 1. Calculate T/s if f = 50 Hz 2. Calculate T/s if f = 500 M Hz

6. Remember Remember T = 1 f 1. Calculate T/s if f = 50 Hz 2. Calculate T/s if f = 500 M Hz T = 1 = 0.02 s 50

7. Remember Remember T = 1 f 1. Calculate T/s if f = 50 Hz 2. Calculate T/s if f = 500 M Hz T = 1 = 0.02 s 50 T = 1 = 2 x10 - 8 s 50x10 6 Remember w = 2 π f3. Calculate w / rads-1 for the above
