Mathematical modelling for harmonic motion
Newton’s Second Law can be applied to the oscillating system
 F = restoring force + damping force + driving force
 F(t) =
- k x(t)
- b v(t)
+ Fd(t)
For a harmonic driving force at a single frequency
Fd(t) = Fmaxcos(t + ).
This differential equation can be solved to give x(t), v(t) and a(t).

Damped oscillations
Oscillations in real systems die away
(the amplitude steadily decreases) over
time - the oscillations are said to be
damped
For example:
The amplitude of a pendulum will
decrease over time due to air resistance
If the oscillating object was in water,
the greater resistance would mean the
oscillations damp much quicker.

Forced oscillations
Driven Oscillations & Resonance
If we displace a mass suspended by a spring from
equilibrium and let it go it oscillates at its natural
frequency
1
f 
2
k
m
If a periodic force at another frequency is applied, the
oscillation will be forced to occur at the applied frequency
- forced oscillations

CP 465
10
Resonance
Forced oscillations are small unless the driving frequency
is close to the natural frequency
When the driving frequency is equal to the natural
frequency the oscillations can be large - this is called
resonance
Away from resonance, energy transfer to the oscillations is
inefficient. At resonance there is efficient transfer which
can cause the oscillating system to fail - see wine glass
experiment.
Famous example of resonance: soldiers marching on
bridge

Resonance phenomena occur widely in natural and in technological
applications:
Emission & absorption of light
Lasers
Tuning of radio and television sets
Mobile phones
Microwave communications
Machine, building and bridge design
Musical instruments
Medicine
– nuclear magnetic resonance
magnetic resonance imaging
– x-rays
– hearing

What is a good strategy for answering
examination questions ???
1
Read and answer the question
2
Type of problem
20
Identify the physics – what model can be used?
Use exam formula sheet
3
Answer in point form
Break the question into small parts, do step by step
showing all working and calculations (if can’t get a number in early
part of a question, use a “dummy” number.

Problem 4.2
Consider a tractor driving across a field that has undulations at
regular intervals. The distance between the bumps is about 4.2
m. Because of safety reasons, the tractor does not have a
suspension system but the driver’s seat is attached to a spring to
absorb some of the shock as the tractor moves over rough
ground. Assume the spring constant to be 2.0104 N.m-1 and
the mass of the seat to be 50 kg and the mass of the driver, 70
kg. The tractor is driven at 30 km.h-1 over the undulations.
Will an accident occur?
26
Solution 4.2
ISEE
m = (50 + 70) kg = 120 kg
k = 2x104 N.m-1
v = 30
km.h-1
Dx = 4.2 m
Tractor speed
v = Dx / Dt = 30 km.h-1 = (30)(1000) / (3600) m.s-1 = 8.3 m.s-1
The time interval between hitting the bumps (Dx = 4.2 m)
Dt = Dx / v = (4.2 / 8.3) s = 0.51 s
Therefore, the frequency at which the tractor hits the bumps and energy is
supplied to the oscillating system of spring-seat-person
f = 1 / Dt = 1 / 0.51 = 2.0 Hz.
The natural frequency of vibration of the spring-seat-person is

This is an example of forced harmonic motion. Since the driving frequency (due
to hitting the bumps) is very close to the natural frequency of the spring-seatperson the result will be large amplitude oscillations of the person and which
may lead to an unfortunate accident. If the speed of the tractor is reduced, the
driving frequency will not match the natural frequency and the amplitude of the
vibration will be much reduced.
