Simple Harmonic Motion
Things that vibrate
§ 13.1–13.3
Hooke’s Law
• Force Law: F = –kx
• F = force exerted by the spring
• k = spring constant (characteristic of the
particular spring)
• x = distance spring is displaced from
equilibrium
Conditions of Motion
• Newton’s second law: F = ma
• Force F depends on position by Hooke’s
law: F = –kx
–kx = ma
• tells how motion changes at each position
d2x
–kx = m 2
dt
• second-order ordinary differential equation
Group Work
A Hooke’s law spring is fixed at one end and
has a mass attached to the other end. The
spring is initially at its neutral position. The
mass is pulled, stretching the spring. The
mass is then released.
a. Plot the mass’s position vs. time.
b. Select at least four events on the plot. At each
event, draw arrows to indicate the mass’s
velocity and acceleration.

A. zero at the top and bottom
B. maximum at the top and bottom
C. minimum but not zero at the top and
bottom

B. maximum at the top and bottom
C. maximum midway between equilibrium

• Force in y-direction is proportional to –y
Uniform Circular Motion
• Angle changes at a steady rate.
• Projection on y-axis has Hooke’s law
force.
• So, projection on y-axis must have
Hooke’s law motion too!
• What is the projection of an angle on the
y-axis?
Group Work
Verify that
d2x
–kx = m 2
dt
if x(t) = A cos (wt + f),
where
• A and f are any real constants
• w = k/m
Equation of Motion
x(t) = A cos (wt + f),
• Amplitude A
• Angular frequency w
• Initial phase angle f
Period and Frequency
• Period T
– time of one cycle (units: s)
• Frequency f
– cycles per unit time (units: 1/s = Hz)
– f = 1/T
• Angular frequency w
– radians per unit time (units: 1/s = Hz)
– w = 2pf
– w = k/m
Another form
x(t) = A cos (wt + f) = C cos (wt) + S sin (wt)
where
C = A cos (f) and S = –A sin (f)
Group Work
• Fourth MasteringPhysics problem
(Exercise 13.4).

Initial Conditions
• Given m, k, x0, and v0, how does one find
the equations of motion?
– m and k give w.
– x0, v0, and w give A.
– x0/A and v0/(Aw) give f.
• Now you can do MasteringPhysics

• Conservation of energy:
PE + KE = constant =

where A is the oscillation amplitude.
(This of course ignores the sullen reality of
energy dispersal by friction and drag.)
