  1. LECTURE 2 Oscillations Time variations that repeat themselvesat regular intervals - periodic or cyclic behaviour Examples:Pendulum (simple); heart (more complicated) Terminology: Period: time for one cycle of motion [s] Frequency: number of cycles per second [s-1 = hertz (Hz)] How can you determine the mass of a single E-coli bacterium or a DNA molecule ? CP458 CP Ch 14

  2. Signal from ECG period T Period: time for one cycle of motion [s] Frequency: number of cycles per second [s-1 = Hz hertz] 1 kHz = 103 Hz 106 Hz = 1 MHz 1GHz = 109 Hz CP445

  3. Example: oscillating stars Brightness Time CP445

  4. Simple harmonic motion SHM x = 0 spring restoring force +X • object displaced, then released • objects oscillates about equilibrium position • motion is periodic • displacement is a sinusoidal function of time (harmonic) • T = period = duration of one cycle of motion • f = frequency = # cycles per second • restoring force always acts towards equilibrium position CP447

  5. origin 0 equilibrium position displacement x [m] velocity v [m.s ] - 1 - + x x max max acceleration a [m.s ] - 2 Force F [N] e Motion problems – need a frame of reference Vertical hung spring: gravity determines the equilibrium position – does not affect restoring force for displacements from equilibrium position – mass oscillates vertically with SHM Fe = - k y CP447

  6. w q = d / d t w p = 2 / T amplitude A A q T = 1 / f f = 1 / T w p = 2 f w p = 2 / T One cycle: period T [s] w - Cycles in 1 s: frequency f [Hz] angular frequency Connection SHM – uniform circular motion [rad.s-1] CP453

  7. SHM & circular motion Displacement is sinusoidal function of time uniform circular motion radius A, angular frequency  x A  xmax x component is SHM: CP453

  8. Simple harmonic motion T amplitude displacement time T T Displacement is a sinusoidal function of time By how much does phase change over one period? CP451

  9. Simple harmonic motion xmax A equation of motion (restoring force) substitute oscillation frequency and period CP457

  10. Simple harmonic motion acceleration is  rad (180) out of phase with displacement At extremes of oscillations, v = 0 When passing through equilibrium, v is a maximum CP457

  11. How do you describe the phase relationships between displacement, velocity and acceleration? CP459

  12. Problem 2.1 • If a body oscillates in SHM according to the equation • where each term is in SI units. What are • the amplitude • the frequency and period • the initial phase at t = 0? • the displacement at t = 2.0 s?

  13. Problem 2.2 An object is hung from a light vertical helical spring that subsequently stretches 20 mm. The body is then displaced and set into SHM. Determine the frequency at which it oscillates.
