13-1 Periodic Motion
Period: time required for one cycle of periodic motion
Frequency: number of oscillations per unit time
This unit is called the Hertz:

13-2 Simple Harmonic MotionA spring exerts a restoring force that is proportional to the displacement from equilibrium:

13-2 Simple Harmonic MotionA mass on a spring has a displacement as a function of time that is a sine or cosine curve:
Here, A is called the amplitude of the motion.

13-2 Simple Harmonic MotionIf we call the period of the motion T – this is the time to complete one full cycle – we can write the position as a function of time:
It is then straightforward to show that the position at time t + T is the same as the position at time t, as we would expect.

13-3 Connections between Uniform Circular Motion and Simple Harmonic Motion
An object in simple harmonic motion has the same motion as one component of an object in uniform circular motion:

13-3 Connections between Uniform Circular Motion and Simple Harmonic Motion
Here, the object in circular motion has an angular speed of
where T is the period of motion of the object in simple harmonic motion.

13-3 Connections between Uniform Circular Motion and Simple Harmonic Motion
The velocity as a function of time:
And the acceleration:
Both of these are found by taking components of the circular motion quantities.

13-4 The Period of a Mass on a SpringSince the force on a mass on a spring is proportional to the displacement, and also to the acceleration, we find that .
Substituting the time dependencies of a and x gives

Therefore, the period is

13-5 Energy Conservation in Oscillatory Motion
In an ideal system with no nonconservative forces, the total mechanical energy is conserved. For a mass on a spring:
Since we know the position and velocity as functions of time, we can find the maximum kinetic and potential energies:

13-5 Energy Conservation in Oscillatory Motion
As a function of time,
So the total energy is constant; as the kinetic energy increases, the potential energy decreases, and vice versa.

13-5 Energy Conservation in Oscillatory Motion
This diagram shows how the energy transforms from potential to kinetic and back, while the total energy remains the same.

13-6 The PendulumA simple pendulum consists of a mass m (of negligible size) suspended by a string or rod of length L (and negligible mass).
The angle it makes with the vertical varies with time as a sine or cosine.

13-6 The Pendulum
Looking at the forces on the pendulum bob, we see that the restoring force is proportional to sin θ, whereas the restoring force for a spring is proportional to the displacement (which is θ in this case).

13-6 The PendulumHowever, for small angles, sin θ and θ are approximately equal.

13-6 The Pendulum
Substituting θ for sin θ allows us to treat the pendulum in a mathematically identical way to the mass on a spring. Therefore, we find that the period of a pendulum depends only on the length of the string:
