Chapter 13 Simple Harmonic Motion
In chapter 13 we will study a special type of motion known as: simple harmonic motion (SHM). It is defined as the motion in which the position coordinate x of an object that moves along the x-axis varies with time t as:
x(t) = Asin(t) or x(t) = Acos(t)
The condition for having simple harmonic motion is that the force F acting on the moving object is:
F = -kx (13-1)
![Page 2: Chapter 13 Simple Harmonic Motion](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061605/5681504e550346895dbe4b84/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Periodic motion is defined as a motion that repeats itself in time.
The period T the time required to complete one repetition Units: s
A special case of periodic motion is known as “harmonic” motion. In this type of motion the position x of an object moving on the x-axis is given by:
x(t) = Asin(t) or x(t) = Acos(t)
The most general expression for x(t) is: The parameters A, , and are constants
(13-2)
x(t) = Asin(t + )

Consider a point P moving around O on a circular path of radius R win constant angular velocity . The Cartesian coordinates of P are: x and y. The angle = t. From triangle OAP we have: OA = x = Rcost and AP = Rsint
The projection of point P on either the x- or the y-axis executes harmonic motion as point P is moving with uniform speed on a circular orbit

Why all this fuss about the simple harmonic oscillator?
Consider an object of energy E (purple horizontal line) moving in a potential U plotted in the figure using the blue solid line
Motion in the x-axis is allowed in the regions where
These regions are color coded green on the x-axis. Motion is forbidden elsewhere (color coded red)
If we have only small departures from the equilibrium positions x01 and x02 we can approximate U by the potential of a simple harmonic oscillator (the blue dashed line in the figure)
(13-15)

We expand the function U(x) around one of the minima (x01 in this example) using a Taylor series

Consider the spring-mass system that oscillates with angular frequency o = (k/m)1/2 If we drive with a force F(t) = Fosint (where in general o) the spring-mass system will oscillate at the driving angular frequency with an amplitude A() which depends strongly on the driving frequency as shown in the figure to the right. The amplitude has a pronounced maximum when = o This phenomenon is called resonance (13-30)
![Page 31: Chapter 13 Simple Harmonic Motion](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061605/5681504e550346895dbe4b84/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
The effects of resonance can be quite dramatic as these pictures of the Tacoma Narrows bridge taken in 1940 show. Strong winds drove the bridge in oscillatory motion whose amplitude was so large that it destroyed the structure. The bridge was rebuilt with adequate damping that prevents such a catastrophic failure
