1- A particle oscillates with simple harmonic motion, so that its displacement
varies according to the expression x = (5 cm)cos(2t + π/6) where x is in
centimeters and t is in seconds. At t = 0 find
(a) the displacement of the particle,
(b) its velocity, and
(c) its acceleration.
(d) Find the period and amplitude of the motion.
Solution:
The displacement as a function of time is
x(t) = A cos(ωt + φ). Here ω = 2/s, φ = π/6, and A = 5 cm.
The displacement at t = 0
is x(0) = (5 cm)cos(π/6) = 4.33 cm.
(b) The velocity at t = 0 is v(0) = -ω(5 cm)sin(π/6) = -5 cm/s.
(c) The acceleration at t = 0 is a(0) = -ω2(5 cm)cos(π/6) = -17.3 cm/s2.
(d) The period of the motion is T = π sec, and the amplitude is 5 cm.

Damped Oscillations:
Where the force is proportional to the speed of the moving object and
acts in the direction opposite the motion.
The retarding force can be expressed as:
R = - bv ( where b is a constant called damping coefficient)
and the restoring force of the system is – kx,
then we can write Newton's second law as

The fig. shows the position as a function in time of the object oscillation
in the presence of a retarding force, the amplitude decreases in time,
this system is know as a damped oscillator. The dashed line which
defined the envelope of the oscillator curve, represent the exponential

as the value of "b" increase the amplitude of the oscillations
decreases more and more rapidly.
When b reaches a critical value bc (b

),
the system does
not oscillate and is said to be critically damped.
And when b c / 2 m   o the system is overdamped.

Forced Oscillation:
For the forced oscillator is a damped oscillator driven by an external force
that varies periodically
Where
F ( t )  F o sin  t
where ω is the angular frequency of the driving force and Fo is a constant

(b=0).
The last two equations show the driving force and the
amplitude of the oscillator which is constant for a given driving
force.
For small damping the amplitude is large when the frequency
of the driving force is near the natural frequency of oscillation,
or when ω͌ ≈ ωo the is called the resonance and the natural
frequency is called the resonance frequency.

Amplitude versus the frequency, when the frequency of the
driving force equals the natural force of the oscillator, resonance
occurs. Note the depends of the curve as the value of the
damping coefficient b.
