5. 13.1 Simple Harmonic Motion A mass on a spring is an example of periodic motion, in the absence of friction. It oscillates between its release point and a point equally far from equilibrium. This is called simple harmonic motion, as the restoring force has the simplest possible form: © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

6. 13.1 Simple Harmonic Motion Displacement ( x ) is the directed distance of the object from equilibrium. Amplitude ( A ) is the maximum displacement. Period ( T ) is the time for one full cycle. Frequency ( f ) is the number of full cycles per second. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

8. 13.1 Simple Harmonic Motion Potential energy of a spring: Total mechanical energy is conserved here; it is easiest to calculate the total energy at the endpoints of motion, where the energy is all potential energy. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

9. 13.1 Simple Harmonic Motion The total energy of an object in simple harmonic motion is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude of the object’s displacement. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

10. 13.1 Simple Harmonic Motion This allows us to calculate the velocity as a function of position: and the maximum velocity (at x = 0): © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

11. 13.1 Simple Harmonic Motion The energy varies from being completely kinetic to completely potential, and back again. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

12. 13.2 Equations of Motion An equation of motion gives the position of an object as a function of time. Simple harmonic motion can be represented as a component of uniform circular motion: © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

13. 13.2 Equations of Motion The equation of motion for the oscillating object is given by: Here, the only possibility is that y = 0 at t = 0. More likely, we would want y = A at t = 0; that is, at t = 0 the object would have its maximum displacement. In that case, © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

14. 13.2 Equations of Motion Relating the angular frequency to the period of motion gives, for y 0 = 0, The period of motion is given by: and the frequency and angular frequency: © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

17. 13.2 Equations of Motion The velocity of an object in simple harmonic motion is: and the acceleration: Note that the acceleration is not constant— the equations of motion for constant acceleration cannot be used here. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

18. 13.2 Equations of Motion In the real world, friction will cause an oscillating object to slow down and eventually stop. This is called damped harmonic motion. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

19. 13.3 Wave Motion A wave pulse is a disturbance that propagates through a medium. It transfers energy without transferring matter; the energy is a combination of kinetic and potential energy. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

20. 13.3 Wave Motion A harmonic disturbance can set up a sinusoidal wave. The distance from crest to crest, or trough to trough, is called the wavelength, λ. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

21. 13.3 Wave Motion Such a wave will have a sinusoidal form in both time and space. Amplitude: maximum displacement Wavelength: distance between points having the same phase Frequency: number of waves passing per second Period: time for one complete wave to pass © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

22. 13.3 Wave Motion Relationship between wave speed, wavelength, period, and frequency: © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

23. 13.3 Wave Motion Waves may be either transverse (displacement perpendicular to direction of propagation) or longitudinal (displacement parallel to direction of propagation). Both types are illustrated here. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

24. 13.3 Wave Motion Water waves may appear to be transverse, but they are actually a combination of transverse and longitudinal motion. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

25. 13.4 Wave Properties When two or more waves travel through the same medium at the same time, they interfere in a process called superposition. At any time, the combined waveform of two or more interfering waves is given by the sum of the displacements of the individual waves at each point in the medium. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

26. 13.4 Wave Properties This is an illustration of interference, using the principle of superposition. The displacement of any point on the rope is the sum of the individual displacements: © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

27. 13.4 Wave Properties If the combined wave is larger than the individual ones, the interference is constructive; if smaller, it is destructive. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

28. 13.4 Wave Properties Destructive interference is used in noise- cancelling technology. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

29. 13.4 Wave Properties Whether or not a wave is inverted upon reflection depends on whether the end is free to move or not. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

30. 13.4 Wave Properties When a wave enters a new medium, its speed usually changes, as the properties of the new medium are different. The direction of propagation changes also; this is called refraction. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

31. 13.4 Wave Properties If the speed of the wave depends on its wavelength, it exhibits dispersion. The rainbow of light from a prism is an example of dispersion. Diffraction occurs when a wave passes through an opening that is comparable in size to the wavelength; the waves will “bend” around the edges of the opening. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

33. 13.5 Standing Waves and Resonance On a rope with one fixed end, it is possible to set up waves that do not travel; they simply vibrate in place. These are called standing waves. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

34. 13.5 Standing Waves and Resonance Some points on the wave remain stationary all the time; these are called nodes. Others have the maximum displacement; these are called antinodes. Adjacent nodes are separated by half a wavelength, as are adjacent antinodes. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

35. 13.5 Standing Waves and Resonance When an integral number of half- wavelengths fit on the rope, the frequency is called the resonant frequency. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

36. 13.5 Standing Waves and Resonance Natural frequencies for a stretched string: The wave speed is given by where F T is the tension and μ is the mass per unit length. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

37. 13.5 Standing Waves and Resonance Natural wavelengths can be varied by varying the length of a string, such as in a piano or harp; varying the mass per unit length of a string, as in a guitar; or varying the tension, which is done for fine tuning. Driving a system at its natural frequency produces resonance; the amplitude at resonance is limited only by damping and by the strength of the materials. © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

38. The Superposition Principle When two or more waves (blue and green) exist in the same medium, each wave moves as though the other were absent.When two or more waves (blue and green) exist in the same medium, each wave moves as though the other were absent.

42. Summary of Chapter 13 A wave is a disturbance in space and time; wave motion transfers energy.
