What is periodic motion?
Motion that repeats at regular intervals of time
Answer
What is Simple Harmonic Motion?
Periodic motion where the restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement from equilibrium
Answer
What is elastic potential energy?
For springs, it is the energy stored when the spring is compressed or stretched
Answer
What is Hooke's Law?
F = kx (The force exerted by a spring is proportional to the displacement from equilibrium)
Answer
What factors affect the period of a pendulum?
It is affected by the length of the string and gravitational acceleration
Answer
Define Frequency
Frequency is the number of oscillations or cycles that occur in a unit of time
Answer
What is amplitude?
The maximum displacement from equilibrium position
Answer
What is the formula for kinetic energy?
KE = 1/2mv^2 (Same as before)
Answer
What is the spring constant?
It is a measure of the stiffness of a spring, defined as the force required to stretch or compress it by one unit of length
Answer
What is the formula for the period of a pendulum?
T = 2pi*sqrt(L/g)
Answer
What is the SI unit of frequency?
Hz, which is equal to one cycle per second
Answer
What is angular frequency?
The rate of rotation in radians per second
Answer
What is the effect of increased mass on period?
Increasing the mass increases the period.
Answer
How is work calculated for a spring?
W = 1/2kx^2
Answer
How does gravity affect pendulum motion?
A decrease in gravity results in an increase in the period of the pendulum
Answer
What are the equations for frequency and period?
Frequency = 1/Period (Other answers will be accepted)
Answer
How is angular frequency related to period?
Angular Frequency = 2pi/T
Answer
How does energy transform in SHM?
Energy transforms between kinetic and potential while total energy remains constant
Answer
What happens if the spring constant is doubled?
When the spring constant is doubled, the period decreases
Answer
How does pendulum motion compare between the Earth and moon?
The period of a pendulum increases on the moon due to lower values of g
