frequency o If m is large, f is small, oscillation will be slow - If Phi is not equal to 0, x Is not equal - When t=0, x<A (A is the bigget value x can take) - x can only go from 0 to A - Value of x will depend on the value of t o X is a function of t o All points between +A and -A will be passed through two times in one cycle - Read problem to determine if cos or sin will be used => T and P remain the same - In the first graph, x=! a; therefore theta is a nonzero digit - At U, no kinetic energy - Anything outside the parabola is potential, anything inside is kinetic - At origin, no potential, everything is kinetic
