Simple Harmonic Oscillation Review
How can we describe the motion of oscillating objects?

Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM) Constructs
Amplitude: maximum distance from equilibrium Period (or frequency): amount of time required to
complete a cycle (or number of cycles per unit time) Equilibrium: position at which all forces acting on the
object sum to zero. Displacement: position of the object relative to
equilibrium Restoring Force: a force that acts on an object that
tends move it toward equilibrium Defining SHM: The restoring force is proportional to the
displacement. Anything missing? xF k x=−

Making Waves
Watch waves How does the motion you are
watching differ from the motion of the mass-spring?
How is it the same? What new constructs are
needed to describe waves? What constructs can I control
when I start the wave? What moves from one end of the
machine to the other?
QuickTime™ and aTIFF (Uncompressed) decompressor
are needed to see this picture.

Wave Constructs
Waves: A transfer of energy without bringing along the mass. Particles in the medium get disturbed and collide,
but they stay oscillating about one position; they don’t travel with the wave.
The medium does not effectively move. The disturbance advances, that’s the wave.

Mathematics of Harmonic Waves
Displacement (y) is a function of both position along the medium and time. y(x,t)
In space, function repeats every wavelength In time, function repeats every period
