  1. Describing Periodic Motion AP Physics

  2. Hooke’s Law

  3. Restoring Force • The force exerted by a spring is a restoring force: it always opposes any displacement from equilibrium

  4. Elastic Potential Energy • Work done is the area under the force vs. displacement graph • The area in this case can be found without calculus

  5. Elastic Potential Energy

  6. Periodic Motion • Any motion which repeats itself is periodic. The time it takes to compete a cycle is the period of the system. • Examples: Perfect Bouncy Ball, Pendulum, Mass on a spring, spinning object • Example: Mass on Spring

  7. Harmonic Motion • If a linear restoring force restrains the motion of an object, then the periodic motion is called simple harmonic motion • The system is called a Simple Harmonic Oscillator (SHO)

  8. Harmonic Motion • Harmonic motion can be mathematically described by a sine function.

  9. Energy Conservation • If no energy is lost, a mass on a spring will remain in motion forever. • Sacred Tenant of Physics: The total energy of the system will be conserved!

  10. Energy Conservation

  11. Example • A 1 kg. mass is attached to 25 N/m spring, stretched 10 cm from equilibrium and then released. • What is the energy stored in the system before being released? • What is the maximum velocity of the mass? • What is the velocity when the mass is at x=5 cm?

  12. Circular Motion • Simple Harmonic Motion can be compared with circular motion. • Demo • Derive the period of the system

  13. Finding the Period

  14. Period and Frequency

  15. Angular Frequency

  16. Mathematical Model

  17. Example 2 • Write an equation for the position of a 0.3 kg. mass on a 100 N/m spring that is stretched from it’s equilibrium position of 15 cm to 18 cm then released. • Find the period of the system, T • Determine the angular frequency, w • Determine the Amplitude, A • x(t) = Acos(wt)+xo.

  18. Example 3 • The position function of a 100 g. mass is given by • Determine the following:
