Oscillations
Simple harmonic motion of springs and pendulums: period, energy sharing and speed through the cycle.
Problems
- Speed Through the Middle
- Equal Shares
- Period of a Spring Oscillator
- Another Spring Period
- How Far Does It Drop?
- Released from an Unstretched Spring
- Frequency of a Stiff Spring
- Speed at Half the Amplitude
- Kinetic Energy Three Times Potential
- Time to the Bottom, in Numbers
- Kinetic Energy Eight Times Potential
- Half Amplitude, in Numbers
- Speed at Half Amplitude
- Fastest Point of the Fall
- Where Kinetic Equals Potential
- Period from a Stretch Test
- Four Times as Long
- Longer String, Heavier Bob
- A Pendulum on the Moon
- A Two-Second Pendulum
