Define simple harmonic motion (SHM) and state the defining equation as
a 2x
4.1.5
Apply the equations v=vo sin t, v=vo cos t, v= (xo2-x2), x=xo cos t,
and x=xo sin t as solutions to the defining equation for SHM.
if displacement is -r when t = 0:
x = -r cos t
vo = r
v = vo sin t
if displacement = 0 when t = 0:
x = r sin t
vo = r
v = vo cos t
Describe the interchange between kinetic energy and potential energy during
SHM.
As an object performing SHM moves away from its mean position, the
stored PE increases and the KE decreases.
