## 4.1 - Oscillations
|
||||
|
||||
!!! definition
|
||||
- Oscillation is defined as a cyclical motion of an object around a central point.
|
||||
- The **amplitude** ($A$) of an oscillation is the greatest displacement from its equilibrium ($\Delta x$).
|
||||
- An object at an **equilibrium position** is at rest.
|
||||
|
||||
### Simple hormonic motion
|
||||
|
||||
In **simple harmonic motion** (SHM), an object oscillates in a fixed time interval around a central **equilibrium point** with a **linear restoring force** directed toward that equilibrium point.
|
||||
$$\vec{F} \propto -\Delta \vec{x}$$
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively, simple harmonic motion can be motion from a linear restoring force always directed to a fixed equilibrium point.
|
||||
|
||||
!!! example
|
||||
A spring has a restoring force equal to $\vec{F}=-k\vec{x}$.
|
||||
|
||||
The position/velocity/acceleration-time graphs of an object in this type of motion are all **sinusoidal**.

## 6.1 - Circular motion
|
||||
|
||||
Circular motion is any motion along a circular path. The instantaneous velocity of an object in circular motion at any point is always tangent to its point on the circle, so the difference between any two velocities ($\Delta \vec{v}$) is radial (lies along the radius).
