Key Concepts

Important Formulas

Displacement:

x = A sin(ωt + φ)

Angular frequency:

ω = √(k/m) for spring; ω = √(g/L) for pendulum

Time period:

T = 2π√(m/k); T = 2π√(L/g)

Velocity:

v = ω√(A² − x²)

Total energy:

Energy E = ½kA²

Solved Numerical Examples

Example 1

Problem: Calculate the time period of a simple pendulum of length 1 m. (g = 9.8 m/s²)

Solution: Time period T = 2π√(L/g). T = 2π√(1 / 9.8) ≈ 2 × 3.1416 × 0.3194 ≈ 2.01 s.

Example 2

Problem: A body of mass 0.5 kg is executing SHM with an amplitude of 10 cm and a time period of 2 s. Find its maximum velocity.

Solution: Angular frequency ω = 2π/T = 2π/2 = π rad/s. Amplitude A = 10 cm = 0.1 m. Maximum velocity v_max = Aω = 0.1 × π ≈ 0.314 m/s.
