Describe the displacement, velocity, and acceleration of an object exhibiting SHM. TOPIC 7.3 Representing and Analyzing SHM
- For an object exhibiting SHM, the displacement of that object measured from its equilibrium position can be represented by the equations xA =co s2() ft or xA =si n2() .
- i. Minima, maxima, and zeros of displacement, velocity, and acceleration are features of harmonic motion.
- ii. Recognizing the positions or times at which the displacement, velocity, and acceleration for SHM have extrema or zeros can help in qualitatively describing the behavior of the motion.
- Changing the amplitude of a system exhibiting SHM will not change the period of that system.
- Properties of SHM can be determined and analyzed using graphical representations.
