4. Motion of a Simple Harmonic Oscillator What would each of the following look like? d-t graph v-t graph a-t graph

5. Simple Harmonic Motion is a WAVE!

6. Simple Harmonic Motion is periodic motion in which the restoring force is proportional and in the opposite direction to the displacement Consider the pendulum: What condition must be true for it to be considered a “simple harmonic oscillator”?

7. Do pendulums follow SHM?

8. Defining SHM “(Restoring)force is proportional to the displacement and in the opposite direction” a -x How did we go from force to acceleration?

10. Angular Frequency What is one cycle here in radians? 22 What’s the definition of frequency?

11. Phase shift/difference is the time difference or phase angle by which one wave/oscillation leads or lags another.

12. Phase shift/difference, Φ

13. Great Website on… Oscillations How is SHM related to circular motion?

14. Velocity of SHM Watch the oscillating duck. Let's consider velocity now Remember that velocity is a vector, and so has both negative and positive values. Where does the magnitude of v(t) have a maximum value? Where does v(t) = 0?
