Periodic motion is any motion that repeats on a regular time basis.

t, time
The motion PERIOD is the time, T, to return to same point.
The FREQUENCY, f, is the inverse of the period, 1/T.
The AMPLITUDE, A, is the maximum displacement.
Since the motion returns to the same point at t=T, it must be true that
T  2
so
f  1 T   2
Harmonic Motion: Key concepts
• Harmonic motion is an important and common
type of repetitive, or “oscillatory” motion
• Harmonic motion is “sinusoidal”
• Oscillatory motion results when an applied
force (1) depends on position AND (2) reverses
direction at some position.
• The two most common harmonic motions are
the pendulum and the spring-mass system.

Our journey begins with uniform circular motion.

Uniform Circular Motion is closely related to Harmonic Motion (oscillations)
Objects in UCM have a constant centripetal acceleration (ac=V2/R).

Theme-park Physics
• What is the angular speed and linear speed needed to
have a rider feel “zero G” at the top of the ride?
• What is the net acceleration at the bottom of the ride?
TOP:
Mg
ac=g=V2/R=R2

F=Mac=Mg

BOTTOM:
Fc+Fg=2Mg
If the ride is 9.8 meters in radius,
ac
=sqrt(g/R)=1 rad/sec
V=9.8 m/sec (about 20 MPH)
Mg
NOTE: There is more to this than meets the eye! The force of the ride on the
rider is zero at the top of the ride, and is Mg at the bottom of the ride.

Feeling weightless
• What is the angular speed and linear speed needed to
have a rider feel “zero G” at the top of the ride?
• What is the net acceleration at the bottom of the ride?
ac=g=V2/R=R2

Vzero-G = sqrt(Rg)
We don’t feel the acceleration of
gravity acting on our bodies, only
the force of gravity of the floor
pushing up against gravity.
Weightlessness is “zero g”
acceleration, normal gravity is
“one g”. Unconsciousness can
result at around 9 g without
special equipment.

So, we have a force that depends on position, and reverses direction at x=0.
Spring-time remembered….
We know that for an ideal
spring, the force is related to
the displacement by

Properties of Mass-Spring System
• Physlet Exploration 16-1.
• How does the period of oscillation change
with amplitude?
Exploration 16-1
Application: Tuning Forks and Musical Instruments
• A tuning fork is basically a type of spring. The
same is true for the bars that make up a
xylophone. They have a very large spring
constant.
• Since the oscillation frequency does not
change with amplitude, the tone of the tuning
fork and xylophone note is independent of
loudness.
