What is Simple Harmonic Motion?
Think of systems that oscillate back and forth.
Write the equation related to angular frequency in SHM.
Relate ω to mass and spring constant!
What does SHM stand for?
Think about the nature of oscillatory motion.
True or False: The total energy in SHM changes as the motion continues.
Energy conservation is key!
A mass of 0.2 kg is attached to a spring with a spring constant of 50 N/m. Calculate the angular frequency and the period of oscillation.
Use the formulas for angular frequency and period.
A pendulum swings through a small angle. If its maximum displacement (amplitude) is 5 cm, what is its potential energy at this height if the mass is 0.5 kg?
Consider the height's effect on potential energy.
