1 OSCILLAIONS 4 Q4.. Reason: here are any exaples in daily life, such as a ass hanging fro a spring, a tennis ball being volleyed back and forth, washboard road bups, a beating heart, AC electric voltage, or a pendulu swinging. Assess: he study of oscillations is iportant precisely because they occur so often in nature. Q4.. Reason: Frequency is the rate at which an event is occurring. Since the heartbeat is given as beats per inute, this is a frequency. Assess: Any description of an event that tells you its rate of occurrence is a frequency. Q4.3. Reason: We are given the graph of x versus t. However, we want to think about the slope of this graph to answer velocity questions. (a) When the x versus t graph is increasing, the particle is oving to the right. It has iu speed when the positive slope of the x versus t graph is greatest. his occurs at 0 s, 4 s, and 8 s. (b) When the x versus t graph is decreasing, the particle is oving to the left. It has iu speed when the negative slope of the x versus t graph is greatest. his occurs at s and 6 s. (c) he particle is instantaneously at rest when the slope of the x versus t graph is zero. his occurs at s, 3 s, 5 s, and 7 s. Assess: his is reiniscent of aterial studied in Chapter ; what is new is that the otion is oscillatory and the graph periodic. Q4.4. Reason: Synthesis 4. shows that both the iu speed and iu acceleration are proportional to the aplitude. If the aplitude doubles, then both the iu speed and iu acceleration increase by a factor of two. Assess: he iu acceleration depends ore stongly on the frequency. Q4.5. Reason: Synthesis 4. shows that the iu speed is proportional to the aplitude. For sall angles doubling the angle corresponds to doubling the aplitude, so this increases her iu speed by a factor of two. Assess: he iu acceleration also doubles. Q4.6. Reason: Since the energy and aplitude of an oscillator are related by E ka /, we see that the aplitude is proportional to the square root of E( A E/ k). If E is doubled, A will be increased by a factor of. hat is ANew AOld. What we have done aounts to a qualitative analysis. We inspect the relationship and write down the answer. Soe students find this difficult to do. If that is the case, you should attept to solve the question in this anner and then use a ore quantitative approach to convince yourself that your qualitative answer is correct. For exaple, write the relationship for the old and the new case as follows: E ka / and E ka / Old Old New New Copyright 05 Pearson Education, Inc.

2 4- Chapter 4 Divide the new expression by the old one, solve for A, and insert New ENew EOld to obtain he new aplitude is (0 c) 8 c. A A E / E A E / E A New Old New Old Old Old Old Old Assess: he qualitative ethod above requires ore insight and the quantitative ethod requires ore tie. Both skills are needed and copleent each other. Q4.7. Reason: he iu kinetic energy is the sae as the total echanical energy. he total energy and aplitude of an oscillator are related by E ka /, we see that the energy is proportional to the square of the aplitude. If A is doubled, E will increase by a factor of four. hat is ENew 4EOld 4(J) 8J. Assess: his question ay also be answered using a ore quantitative approach as outlined in Question 4.6. Q4.8. Reason: elling us that the initial elongation is doubled is a way of telling us that the aplitude is doubled. Since energy is conserved, the iu potential energy is equal to the iu kinetic energy. ka / v/ Solving this for the iu speed we obtain the following: v A k/ he above expression infors us that the iu speed is proportional to the aplitude: If the aplitude doubles, the speed will double, hence ( v ) ( v ) (0.3/s) 0.6/s New Old Assess: Notice that we are solving the question by inspecting the relationship. his question ay also be answered using a ore quantitative approach as outlined in Question 4.6. Q4.9. Reason: Fro the graph the strategy is to deterine the period, then use f /. As is done in Figure 4.4, one can easure the period between two crests; in this case it appears to be s. f 0.5 Hz s he aplitude is the iu distance fro the equilibriu position. On this graph it appears that A 0 c. Assess: he aplitude is not the distance fro the iu to the iniu that would be A. See Figure 4.6. Q4.0. Reason: Fro the graph we read the period as s and the iu speed as 0.0 /s. Knowing the period we can deterine the frequency as follows: f / / s 0.50 Hz Knowing the iu speed and the frequency we can deterine the aplitude. v ωa ( π/ ) A or A v / π (0.0 /s)(.0 s)/ π 0.03 Assess: hese are fairly typical values for the frequency and aplitude of an oscillator. Q4.. Reason: he period of a block oscillating on a spring is given in Equation 4.6, π / k. We are told that.0 s. (a) In this case the ass is doubled,. So (.0s).8s. π / k π k / Copyright 05 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. his aterial is protected under all copyright laws as they currently exist.

3 Oscillations 4-3 (b) In this case the spring constant is quadrupled, k k. So (.0 s).8 s. π k / k k π k / k k (c) he forula for the period does not contain the aplitude; that is, the period is independent of the aplitude. Changing (in particular, doubling) the aplitude does not affect the period, so the new period is still.0 s. Assess: It is equally iportant to understand what doesn t appear in a forula. It is quite startling, really, the first tie you realize it, that the aplitude doesn t affect the period. But this is crucial to the idea of siple haronic otion. Of course, if the spring is stretched too far, out of its linear region, then the aplitude would atter. Q4.. Reason: he period of a siple pendulu is given in Equation 4.7, π Lg /. We are told that.0 s. (a) In this case the ass is doubled,. However, the ass does not appear in the forula for the period of a pendulu; that is, the period does not depend on the ass. herefore the period is still.0 s. (b) In this case the length is doubled, L L. (.0s).8s. So π L / g L L π Lg / L L (c) he forula for the period of a siple sall-angle pendulu does not contain the aplitude; that is, the period is independent of the aplitude. Changing (in particular, doubling) the aplitude, as long as it is still sall, does not affect the period, so the new period is still.0 s. Assess: It is equally iportant to understand what doesn t appear in a forula. It is quite startling, really, the first tie you realize it, that the aplitude ( θ ) doesn t affect the period. But this is crucial to the idea of siple haronic otion. Of course, if the pendulu is swung too far, out of its linear region, then the aplitude would atter. he aplitude does appear in the forula for a pendulu not restricted to sall angles because the sallangle approxiation is not valid; but then the otion is not siple haronic otion. Q4.3. Reason: If it behaves like a ass on a spring, then triing the wings will reduce the ass, and this will k increase the frequency because f. π Assess: It would be easier to beat a wing quickly if it had less ass. Q4.4. Reason: he relationship between the length of a pendulu, its period and the value of the acceleration due to gravity at that site is given by, π L/ g. Inspecting this relationship, we see that the period is inversely proportional to the square root of the acceleration due to gravity. Going fro Miai to Denver results in a saller value of g and hence a larger value of the period of the clock. If the period of the clock is increased, it takes longer for an oscillation and the clock will run slower. he clock will run slower in Denver copared to Miai. Assess: Notice that we solved the question by inspecting the relationship between the period and the acceleration due to gravity. his question ay also be answered using a ore quantitative approach as outlined in Question 4.6. k Q4.5. Reason: Reducing the ass increases the frequency because f So you would reove water. Assess: ry it! Copyright 05 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. his aterial is protected under all copyright laws as they currently exist.. π L 4π L Q4.6. Reason: Solve the period equation for a siple pendulu for g. π g. So to easure g local g one should easure the length and period of a sall angle siple pendulu very accurately, and plug into this forula for g. Assess: here are solid state devices that do this now.

4 4-4 Chapter 4 Q4.7. Reason: he leg acts soewhat like a pendulu as it swings forward. By bending their knees to bring their feet up closer to the body, sprinters are shortening the pendulus, which akes the swing faster. Assess: See if you can notice this effect by first running as fast as you can, then again without bending your knees any higher than necessary to clear the ground. Q4.8. Reason: As the gibbons ove through the trees they are essentially swinging pendulus. By bending their knees and bringing their feet closer to their body, they are decreasing the length of the pendulu, which in turn decreases the period of the pendulu. Decreasing the period of the pendulu results in a shorter swing tie and they can ove through the trees faster. Assess: You do the sae thing when you run. As you run, you don t keep your ars extended to their full length, instead you bend the at the elbow. If you didn t the swing of your ars could not keep up with the swing of your legs and you would run in a very awkward anner try it! Q4.9. Reason: Natural frequency is the frequency that an oscillator will oscillate at on its own. You ay drive an oscillator at a frequency other than its natural frequency. Assess: If you are pushing a child in a swing, you build up the aplitude of the oscillation by driving the oscillator at its natural frequency. You can achieve resonance by driving an oscillator at its natural frequency. Q4.0. Reason: Saller auditory systes eans less ass to ove, so they would naturally oscillate at higher frequencies. Assess: A Web search will show that the range of hearing for ice is about khz to 70 khz. Q4.. Reason: he truck is a driven oscillator. At the interediate speed where the vertical otion is large and unpleasant, the driving frequency due to hitting the bups of the washboard is close to the natural (resonance) frequency (which is deterined by the suspension syste and the ass of the truck); the resulting large-aplitude otion is resonance. At speeds either significantly above or below that interediate speed, the driving frequency of the bups in the road is either saller or greater than the resonance frequency and the response of the driven oscillator is sall. Assess: It should be noted that a driven oscillator does oscillate at the driving frequency, whether that happens to be close to the resonance frequency or not. So the frequency of the up-and-down otion of the truck is the frequency with which it hits the regular bups in the washboard road. You could try an experient by varying the natural frequency of your truck by loading it ore or less and see if the speed that produces resonance on the sae washboard road changes siilarly. Q4.. Prepare: When the kangaroo increases its speed the tendons stretch ore which stores ore energy in the, so they spend ore tie in the air propelled by greater spring energy. When in contact with the ground it is like a spring in siple haronic otion. Hopping faster would increase the aplitude of the oscillation, but that doesn t change the period, or tie in contact with the ground. Assess: Kangaroo hopping can be quite efficient at high speeds. Q4.3. Reason: (a) he unstretched equilibriu position is 0 c. When we load the spring with 00 g we establish a new equilibriu position at 30 c. When we pull the oscillator down to 40 c (i.e., an additional 0 c) and release it, it will oscillate with an aplitude of A 0 c. he correct choice is B. (b) Knowing that 00 g stretched the spring 0 c, we can deterine the spring constant. k g/ x (0.kg)(9.8 /s )/(0.0 ) 9.8 N/ Knowing the spring constant and the ass on the spring, we can deterine the oscillation frequency as follows: f k/ / π (9.8 N/)/(0.0 kg)/π.6 Hz he correct choice is C. (c) he frequency of oscillation depends on k and, neither of which would change on the oon. he correct choice is C. Assess: hese are rather sall but acceptable values for the spring constant and frequency. Copyright 05 Pearson Education, Inc.

5 Oscillations 4-5 Q4.4. Reason: his is siple haronic otion where the equilibriu position is at x 0. (a) One can read the period off the graph by seeing how uch tie elapses fro peak to peak or trough to trough. Reading peak to peak gives about 38 s 4 s 4 s. So the correct choice is B. (b) he aplitude is the iu displaceent fro the equilibriu position. his is easily read at a nuber of places on the graph, but the first positive peak occurs at about t 4 s; the displaceent there is 4.5 c.he correct choice is C. (c) At the tie t 30 s the graph crosses a grid line and allows us to read the answer, x c. he correct choice is B. (d) he velocity of the object is given by the slope of the x versus t graph. We are looking for the first tie that slope is zero (the tangent line is horizontal); this occurs at t s. he correct choice is B. (e) Kinetic energy is iu when the speed is greatest; this occurs as the object oves through the equilibriu position, not at the end points of its otion where it is instantaneously at rest. Of the choices given, 8 s is the tie where the graph crosses the t-axis and where x 0 and the object is in equilibriu (but oving quickly). he correct choice is B. Assess: It would be very instructive to construct a v x versus t graph for this sae situation (it would be the slope of this x versus t graph) and think about the sae questions in relation to the new graph. Q4.5. Reason: Soe of the question ay be answered by coparing the expression given with the general equation for siple haronic otion. (a) he expression given for the displaceent is x (0.350 ) cos(5.0 t). he general expression for the displaceent is x Acos ωt. Coparing these two expressions for the displaceent we see that the aplitude of oscillation is A 0.350, choice B. (b) he frequency of oscillation ay be deterined by f ω/ π (5.0/s)/ π.39 Hz, choice B. (c) he ass attached to the spring ay be deterined by kω / (00 N/)/(5/s) 0.89 kg, choice B. (d) he total echanical energy of the oscillator is equal to its iu potential energy, which ay be deterined by Eotal U ka/ (00 N/)(0.350 ) /. J, choice E. (e) he iu speed ay be deterined by v ωa (5.0/s)(0.350 ) 5.5 /s, choice E. Assess: Working this proble brings our attention to two things. First, there is a lot of inforation tucked away in the function given for the displaceent of the oscillator. Second, there are a lot of details associated with an oscillation. It is iportant to know these details and their interconnection. Q4.6. Prepare: his is a ass on a spring syste. Increasing the ass increases the period and decreases the frequency. he answer is C. Assess: Even though the ass of the people inside is five ties greater that is only a part of the ass of the whole car. Q4.7. Prepare: Your ars act like siple pendulus and carrying the weights in your hands erely increases g the ass of the bob, but that doesn t affect the frequency of oscillation, f. he answer is B. π L Assess: he ass of the bob doesn t appear in the equation for the frequency of a siple pendulu. Q4.8. Reason: he relationship between the period, the length of the pendulu, and the acceleration due to gravity at the site of the pendulu is π L/ g. his expression ay be solved for the length L to obtain: L t g ρ π /4 (5.5 s) (9.80 /s )/4 7.5 he correct choice is C. Assess: While this is a rather long pendulu, it is in the acceptable range. Q4.9. Reason: We see in Figure 4.6 that the cells on the basilar ebrane close to the stapes correspond to higher frequencies. he correct choice is B. Assess: People often lose hearing sensitivity in the higher frequencies with age. Copyright 05 Pearson Education, Inc.

P4.. Prepare: Knowing the relationship between period and frequency, we can deterine the frequency fro the period. 4 he period is deterined by f / /(54 in)( in/60 s) 3. 0 Hz.

P4.5. Prepare: For a sall angle pendulu the restoring force is proportional to the displaceent because sin θ θ. If we odel this as a Hooke s law situation, then doubling the distance will double the restoring force fro 0 N to 40 N. Assess: his would not work for angles uch larger than 0. P4.6. Prepare: he air-track glider oscillating on a spring is in siple haronic otion. he glider copletes 0 oscillations in 33 s, and it oscillates between the 0 c ark and the 60 c ark.
