1 PHY207 – The Physics of Music
Slides for Webinar 1, based on Week 1 and Week 2 videos.

2 1.2  Graphing Motion Suppose I take a ball and move it from 0cm on a ruler to 20cm, and I do that in 1 second. This is the position-time graph. Q: What is the speed? What would the graph look like if the speed were different?

3 Chapter 1: Simple Harmonic Motion
Where on this graph is the ball moving fastest? What are the amplitude (A), period (P) and frequency (f) of this motion?

4 Chapter 1: Damped Harmonic Motion
What’s going on in this graph?

5 Chapter 1: Driven Harmonic Motion
What are some examples of resonance in life? What needs to happen to put a system into resonance?

6 Chapter 2: Waves Here is a traveling wave on a string.
How is this different than an oscillation? Is this wave transverse or longitudinal?
