Example:
Analyzing an Oscillator
At t=0, a 500 g block oscillating on a
spring is observed to be moving to the right
at x=15 cm. At t=0.30 s, it reaches its
maximum displacement of 25 cm.
x  A cos
(a) Draw a graph of the motion for one cycle.
(b) At what time in the first cycle is x=20 cm?
The motion is SHM. The position equ. Of the block is

x0  15 cm, A  25 cm
x  A cos
0  cos1  x0 / A  cos1  0.60  0.927 rad
The object is initially moving to the right, which tells us
that the phase constant must be between - and 0 rad.
Thus   0.927rad

Vertical Oscillations
Does the additional force of gravity change the
motion?
Now consider a mass m hanging from a spring
with constant k. When the mass is attached, the
spring stretches by L.
Finding L is a static –equilibrium problem in
which the upward spring force balances the
downward weight force of the block. So,
F 
sp y
 ky  kL
 L is a distance and it is a +ve number.
y is the displacement.
In this configuration, the equilibrium position is
given by:
At equilibrium, (Fnet ) y  (Fsp ) y  wy  k L  mg  0
L  mg / k  equilibrium position
7
Let the block oscillate around this equilibrium position.
The origin of the y-axis at the block’s equilibrium position
If the block moves upward, the spring gets
shorter compared to its equilibrium length,
but the spring is still stretched compared
to its unstretched length.
When the block is in position y, the spring
is stretched by an amount L  y
m
And hence exerts an upward spring force
Fsp  k L  y 
The net force on the block at this point is
(Fnet ) y  ( Fsp ) y  wy  k (L  y)  mg  (kL  mg )  ky
( Fnet ) y  ky  y(t )  A cos(t  0 )
  k/m
Because, the motions are the same,
everything we have learned about
horizontal oscillation is equally valid for vertical oscillations.
8
Example 7: A Vertical Oscillator
A 200 g block hangs from a spring
with constant k = 10 N/m. The block is
pulled down to a point where the spring
is 30 cm longer than its unstretched
length, then released.
Where is the block and what is its
velocity 3.0 s later?
Although the spring begins by being stretched 30 cm, this is not the amplitude
of the oscillation. Oscillations occur around the equilibrium position, so we
have to begin by finding the equilibrium point where the block hangs
motionless on the spring.
L  mg / k  (0.20 kg)(9.8 m/s2 )/(10 N/m)  0.196 m
Stretching the spring 30 cm pulls the block 10.4 cm below the
equilibrium point,
A  ys  L  (0.300 m)  (0.196 m)  0.104 m
so A=10.4 cm.
9
Example 7: A Vertical Oscillator
y(t )  10.4cm coswt   
  k / m  (10 N/m) /(0.20 kg)  7.07 rad/s
The initial condition
y  A  A cos   
At t= 3.0 s the block’s
position is:
y  (10.4cm ) cos((7.07rad / s)(3.0 s)   rad )  7.4cm
The block is 7.4 cm above the equilibrium position, or 12.2 cm below the
original end of the spring.
Its velocity at this instant is
v x  wA sin(wt   )  52cm / s
10
The Pendulum
The pendulum’s position can be described by the
arc of length s, which is zero when the pendulum
hangs straight down.
Because angles are measured ccw, s and  are
+ve when pendulum is to the right of center,
-ve when it is to the left.

Conditions for SHM
we have solved all simple harmonic motion problems once we have
solved the problem of horizontal spring.
The restoring force of a spring, Fsp = kx, is directly proportional
to the displacement x from equilibrium.
The pendulum’s restoring force, in the small angle approximation, is
directly proportional to the displacement s.
A restoring force that is directly proportional to the displacement
from equilibrium is called a linear restoring force.
For any linear restoring force, the equation of motion is identical
to spring equation ( other than perhaps using different symbols).
Any system with a linear restoring force will
undergo simple harmonic motion around the
equilibrium position.
17
Everything that we learn about an oscillating spring can be applied
to the oscillations of any other linear restoring force, ranging from
the vibration of airplane wings to the motion of electrons in electric
circuits.
Moreover, even when the restoring force is nonlinear (e.g., the
pendulum), for sufficiently small displacements it can be treated
as a linear system (small angle approximation).
Therefore, we often treat atoms, molecules, and nuclei as
small harmonic oscillators, even when the restoring forces
involved may be very different from Hooke’s Law forces.
18
Identifying and Analyzing SHM
1. If the net force acting on a particle is a linear restoring force, the motion
will be simple harmonic motion (SHM) around the equilibrium position.
2. The position x as a function of time is x(t) = A cos (t + 0).
The velocity v as a function of time is v(t) =  A sin (t + 0).
The maximum speed is vmax = A .
The equations are given here in terms of x, but they can be written in
terms of any other appropriate variables (y, , etc.)
3. The amplitude A and the phase constant 0 are determined by the initial
conditions, through x0 = A cos 0 and v0x = A sin 0.
4. The angular frequency  and the period T depend on the physics of the
particular situation but are independent of A and 0.
5. Mechanical energy is conserved. Thus, ½mvx2 + ½kx2 = ½kA2 = ½mvmax2.
Energy conservation provides a relationship between position and velocity
that is independent of time.

The system will show the property of
resonance. The oscillation amplitude will
depend on the driving frequency d, and will
have its maximum value when: d  0  k / m
i.e., when the system is driven at its resonant
frequency 0.
The width of the resonance curves depends on
the amount of damping. Wider curves with smaller
resonance curves correspond to more damping and
larger values of b.
