1. 1.2.13 Energy in SHM Objectives
Describe the energy changes taking place during simple harmonic motion

2. In any oscillating system, energy is cycled between Potential and Kinetic Energy.
You should be able to draw a graph of the relationship between these two quantities and explain the shape.
Energy
-A Displacement A
Total energy - stays constant!
Potential Energy
Kinetic Energy

3. The interchange of kinetic and potential energies with time as a pendulum bob swings

4. Three superimposed graphs showing how gravitational potential energy, elastic potential energy and kinetic energy change with displacement for a mass oscillating up and down on a spring
Can you work through the
maths to prove this?
