Vibrations and Waves
Simple Harmonic Motion
Simple Harmonic Motion – vibration
about an equilibrium position in which
a restoring force is proportional to
the displacement from equilibrium.
Springs, pendulums, etc…
The spring force always pushes or
pulls the mass back toward its original
equilibrium position (sometimes called
a restoring force).
See figure 12-1, page 438

Example:

*
When the restoring force is linearly
proportional to the amount of the
displacement from equilibrium, the force is
said to be a Hooke’s Law force.
Hooke’s Law
For mass-spring systems
Formula Felastic = -kx
 Spring force=-(spring constantXdisplacement)
The negative sign in the equation refers
to the force being opposite to the
displacement.
k is a measure of stiffness and the unit
is N/m
Remember, stretching or compressing
a spring stores elastic potential
energy that can be converted to
kinetic energy.
Book Example, page 366
If a mass of 0.55 kg attached to
a vertical spring stretches the
spring 2.0 cm from its original
equilibrium position, what is the
spring constant?
m=0.55 kg
g=9.81m/s2
x=-2.0cm = -0.020m
k=?

Example 2. How much force will a vertical spring
with a spring constant of 350 N/m exert when
it is stretched to 22 cm past its equilibrium
point?
FE  - kx  - (350 N/m)(-0.22 m)  77 N
Example 3. When a 1.5 kg mass is
suspended from a spring hanging vertically,
How much does it stretch if the spring constant
Is 98N/m?
Remember: The spring force (FE) is equal and
opposite to the weight (Fw).

Practice page 367
Simple Harmonic Motion, pg. 371
Some basic elements of simple
harmonic motion
At equilibrium position,
velocity = maximum
At maximum displacement, the
spring force and acceleration =
maximum
This motion repeats itself in
simple harmonic motion.
See page 371 for a comparison of
spring-mass systems and pendulum
motion.
The pendulum stores gravitational
potential energy, and the spring-mass
system stores elastic potential energy.
 See page 370
Measuring Simple Harmonic Motion
Amplitude – maximum displacement
from equilibrium position.
 Unit is radians or meters
Period (T) time it takes to complete
one cycle of motion.
 Unit is seconds
Frequency (f) is the number of cycles
per second. T=1/f or f=1/T
 Unit for f is s-1 or Hertz (Hz)
The time for one cycle is the period, T.
The number of cycles per second is the frequency.
Calculating the Period of a
Simple Pendulum
T = 2
L/g
L = length of pendulum
g = free-fall
T = Period of pendulum
Amplitude and mass do not affect
the period of a pendulum

Mass-Spring Systems
The period of a mass-spring
system depends on mass and
spring constant.
T = 2 m/k
Book example
The body of a 1275 kg car is supported on a frame by
four springs. Two people riding in the car have a
combined mass of 153 kg. When driven over a pothole
in the road, the frame vibrates with a period of 0.840 s.
For the first few seconds, the vibration approximates
simple harmonic motion. Find the spring constant of a
single spring.

What is a wave ?
A definition of a wave:
A wave is a traveling disturbance that
transports energy but not matter.
Examples:
Sound waves (air moves back & forth)
Water waves (water moves up & down)
Light waves (do not require a medium)
Mechanical waves require a medium
 Electromagnetic waves (like light) do
not
Measuring Waves
Frequency (f) – number of cycles per
second
Period – time in seconds required for
one complete cycle of motion
Velocity(v) – speed of wave in m/s

v = f 

Wave Types
Pulse wave – single, non-periodic
disturbance.
Periodic wave – a wave whose
source is some kind of periodic
motion.
Transverse: The medium
oscillates perpendicular to the
direction the wave is moving.
Water (more or less)
String waves
Longitudinal: The medium oscillates
in the same direction as the wave is
moving.
Sound
Wave Interactions
Because mechanical waves are not
matter, but are displacements of
matter, they can occupy the same
space at the same time.
Superposition – combination of
two overlapping waves
Wave Interactions
Interference – interaction of
waves as a result of them passing
through each other.
When the displacements are in the
same direction, this produces
Constructive Interference (see figure
4.3, pg. 386)
The resultant amplitude of the
resultant wave is the sum of the
amplitudes of the individual waves.
Each wave maintains it’s own
characteristics after the interference
When the displacements are in the
opposite direction, this produces
Destructive Interference (see figure
4.4, pg. 387)
The resultant amplitude of the
resultant wave is the difference
between the two pulses.
If the difference is zero, then it is
called Complete Destructive
Interference (fig 4.5)
Again, each wave maintains it’s own
characteristics after the interference

Standing Waves
A standing wave is produced when two
waves with the same amplitude,
wavelength and frequency travel in
opposite directions and interfere (fig.
4.7, pg. 389).
Node – point on a standing wave that
always undergoes complete destructive
interference and therefore is
stationary.
Antinode – a point in a standing wave
half-way between two nodes at which
the largest amplitude occurs.
If both ends of the string
are fixed, a standing wave
results.
If the string is “infinitely”
long and the up-and-down
pulses repeat, we get a
traveling wave.
Only certain frequencies will
produce standing wave patterns.
The ends have to be nodes, so this
includes a wavelength of 2L (twice
the length of the string or tube
where the vibration is taking place),
L, and 2/3 L. (see figure 4.8, pg.
390)
