Simple Harmonic Motion - Complete Review of the Mass-Spring System

This physics video tutorial explains the concept of simple harmonic motion. It focuses on the mass-spring system and shows you how to calculate variables such as amplitude, frequency, period, maximum velocity, maximum acceleration, restoring force, spring constant k, spring potential energy, kinetic energy, and mechanical energy in addition to describing the motion of the mass-spring system using a sinusoidal function such as sine or cosine. This video contains plenty of examples problems.

GOD BLESS YOU SIR, I have my final exam tomorrow and was struggling with this particular section, my teacher was Soo bad at explaining it but u saved me, lol I feel a bit relived and happy so I can pass onto the next chapter now. Thank

[lowlight]

bro is litreally better than my coachings physics HOD nice man why didnt i found you sooner.🥰

[husnainawan]

Superb sir.. you earned my true respect

[ArulinySivakumar]

Thank you physics ninja! I like the teaching style of yours!

[JOSHUAANYOLE-lg]

Well explained... Thanks so much bro...

11:56 You lost me. What did the '(+)' mean? Why did you include it?

[etazbaz]

which equation is angular vs natural frequency? I have seen both w and w_0 used and it is very confusing. does it change between damped and undamped motion?

[joanpasteur]

14:03 But why? I dont understand why you added it.

Pls post the solutions to 9702/33/F/M/20
