Understanding the concept of simple harmonic motion

Using the given information and the standard equation of SHM, we can find the required values.

Formula:

Angular frequency of a body, Ӭ=2πT….. (i)

Angular displacement of a body,Ωt=θmcosÓ¬t…â¶Ä¦(¾±¾±)

Angular velocity of a body,Ω=-2Ï€Tθmsin2Ï€tT…â¶Ä¦â¶Ä¦.(¾±¾±¾±)

Angular acceleration of a body,α=-Ω2Ï€T2θmcos2Ï€tT…â¶Ä¦â¶Ä¦(¾±±¹)

The maximum angular speed of a body, Ωm=2πθmT…â¶Ä¦..(±¹)

(a) Calculation of maximum angular speed

Using equation (v) and the given values, we get the maximum angular speed as:

Ωm=2ττττ0.50=39.5rad/s

Hence, the angular speed value is found to be39.5rad/s.

04

(b) Calculation of angular speed at π/4 rad

Using equation (i) and substituting the values, we get the angular speed at required displacement as:

Ωt=πcosӬtπ2=πcosӬtcosӬt=12Ӭt=π3

Calculate the value of angular velocity as below.

Ó¬=2Ï€T=23.140.50=12.56rad/s

Now, the angular velocity using equation (iii) and the given values is given as:

Ω=-ӬττsinӬt=-12.563.1432=-34.11rad/s≈-34.11rad/s

Hence, the angular speed value is found to be .

05

(c) Calculation of angular acceleration at π/4 rad

Using equation (iii) and the given values, the angular acceleration is given as:

αt=-Ӭ2θ=-12.562ττ4=-123.8rad/s2≈-124rad/s2|αt|=124rad/s2

Hence, the value of angular acceleration is found to be .

You are to complete Fig 15-23aso that it is a plot of acceleration a versus time t for the spring–block oscillator that is shown in Fig 15-23b for t=0 . (a) In Fig.15-23a, at which lettered point or in what region between the points should the (vertical) a axis intersect the t axis? (For example, should it intersect at point A, or maybe in the region between points A and B?) (b) If the block’s acceleration is given bya=-amcos(Ӭt+ϕ)what is the value ofϕ? Make it positive, and if you cannot specify the value (such as+π/2rad), then give a range of values (such as between 0 andπ/2).
