Repetitive MotionsRepetitive Motions• An object with a stable equilibrium
tends to oscillate about that equilibrium• This oscillation involves at least two
types of energy: kinetic and a potential energy
• Once the motion has been started, it will repeat
When energy traded back and forth between When energy traded back and forth between kinetic and potential energy: “resonance”kinetic and potential energy: “resonance”

Many objects in nature Many objects in nature have natural have natural resonances !resonances !
Repetitive motion characterized by a: period (or frequency) and amplitude
Resonance: energy can be stored in motion at a specific frequency

Period:Period: time of one full cycle
Frequency (1/Period):Frequency (1/Period):cycles completed per second
Amplitude:Amplitude:extent of repetitive motion

The Harmonic OscillatorThe Harmonic Oscillator
• Anything with a stable equilibrium and a restoring force (F) that’s proportional to the distortion away from equilibrium (x)(F = - k x, where k is a constant)
• Period is independent of amplitude• Examples:
1. Simple pendulum (small amplitude)2. Mass on a spring
A special example of something with a natural resonance

That indicates simple harmonic motion
At low amplitude, the restoring force is proportional to the distance from equilibrium.
F = - k x (you have already seen this as Hooke’s Law!)

Atomic ClocksAtomic Clocks• Particles in an atom (neutrons, protons, electrons) can
have only a very specific amount of total energy.• Changing from one quantum state to another requires
or releases a fixed amount of energy• That energy can be converted into a frequency, so can
be the basis of a very accurate clock.
