6b. Simple Harmonic and Circular Motion Flashcards
1
Q
The conditions required for simple harmonic motion
A
The acceleration of an object is proportional to the negative displacement (The acceleration is proportional to the displacement and always acts towards the equilibrium position).
2
Q
Resonance
A
Where the driving frequency matches the natural frequency of an object.
3
Q
Angular velocity
A
The rate of change of angular displacement equal to 2 * pi * f.
