I know mathematics of SHM but why it is called so? What does "simple" and "harmonic" actually means in SHM?
A particle moves in a straight line and its position at time t given by x=4sin(3t)+3cos(3t)
Find the first two times after t=0 when the particle is stationary
Online physics exam due in 2 weeks on Waves and simple harmonic motions. Open book open notes, just timed so I need someone to help me show my work during it.
I am doing Ap Physics, and we did an experiment on Hooke's Law and Simple Harmonic Motion. First experiment is the relationship between F=-kx, while second experiment was T= 2* pi * m/k^1/2 . One of the discussions asked ' Compare the spring constant value in Part A and Part B. Discuss'. The thing is i don't know how the difference of the spring constant? are we supposed to say, one was more stiffer than another?

I wrote this paper as I figured that explaining it would help me understand it better. Also, I wanted to improve my Latex skills. Feedback would be great. Thanks!

Would absolutely love to make animations like this, relating math to sound... can anyone point me in the right direction what (combination of) program(s) was used to make something like this?

Hey,
So, I’m working through the Barron’s Physics Subject SAT book to review, and I come across question 20. I thought that the magnitude of displacement where the mass experiences the greatest net force would just be at the amplitude A, but that wasn’t an answer. Apparently, the answer is E. The explanation in the back confirms that it is where the mass is displaced a maximum distance(which it says is the amplitude) but it doesn’t explain how E was the answer. What’s going on here?
