video E1: The Kinematics of Harmonic Motion (part 1): An Introduction into Harmonic Motion. This video compares the motion of an object travelling in uniform circular motion to an object travelling in simple harmonic motion. Kinematics is the study of DESCRIBING motion. Dynamics is the study of the CAUSES of motion.
video E2: The Kinematics of Harmonic Motion (part 2)
video E3: The Kinematics of Harmonic Motion (part 3)
video E4: The Dynamics of Simple Harmonic Motion (part 1). This video explains how Newton's laws apply to simple harmonic motion.
video E5: Energy Conservation and Simple Harmonic Motion
video E6: Harmonic Oscillator with a Crate on Top of a Crate. This video details the physics of a crate that is attached to a spring with another create sitting on top of the first one. The net force on the top crate is supplied only by the force of friction.
video E7: Springs in Series and Parallel. This video explains how to find the equivalent spring constants of either set of springs that are connected in parallel and or connected in series.
video E8: The Period of a Simple Pendulum. This video describes the derivation for the period of a simple pendulum.
video E9: The Period of a Physical Pendulum. This video describes the derivation for the period of a physical pendulum.
video E10: The Period of a Physical Pendulum (part 2). This video shows how to apply the equation derived in video H9.
video E11: The Equivalence of a Vertical Mass on a Spring to a Horizontal Mass on a Spring. This video attempts to explain why the physics of a mass attached to a horizontal spring has many similarites to the physics of a mass attached to a vertical spring.
