🌊 7. Oscillations & Waves

📖 Theory – 🌊 7. Oscillations & Waves

Simple harmonic motion (SHM): a = -ω²x.

Period of SHM: T = 2π/ω = 2π√(m/k) for a mass-spring system.

Period of a simple pendulum: T = 2π√(l/g).

Energy in SHM: total energy E = ½kA² = ½mω²A².

Wave properties: wavelength λ, frequency f, speed v = fλ.

Transverse waves: oscillations perpendicular to direction of propagation.

Longitudinal waves: oscillations parallel to direction of propagation.

The Doppler effect: change in frequency due to relative motion.
