Term
Force (equation)
Definition
F = M(a)
Force = mass x acceleration
Term
Change in Velocity (equation)
Definition
-> ->
V = a (t)

Change in Velocity = acceleration x time(sec)
Term
Acceleration of Gravity
Definition
9.8 m/s^2
Term
Weight of Mass
Definition
F = M(g)
Force = Mass x gravity
Term
k - spring constant (equation)
Definition
F = k(x) or k = F/x

x= elongation / displacement
Term
Stiff Spring
Definition
Large spring constant
- large frequency
Term
Soft Spring
Definition
small spring constant
- small frequency
Term
Natural Frequency (equation)
Definition
f = 1/2pi *squareroot* (k/m)
Term
Natural Frequency
Definition
Does not depend on the amplitude of oscillation
- amplitude affects loudness
Term
SHM (equation)
Definition
x = A sin(2pi t/T)
