Fourier theorem
Fourier theorem: Any periodic function can be
expressed as a sum of the sine and cosine functions
whose frequencies increase in the ratio of natural
numbers. i.e.
f(t+nT
)=f(t);
f(t+nT)=f(t);

Example
Modeling a Square Wave
The important predictions of
Fourier theorem can be illustrated
by discussing the analytically simple
example of a square vibration.
Sample problem:
Fourier expand the function defined by the following
equation:
f(t) = -A
= +A
f(t+T) = f(t)
Ans: As the function is an odd function, an = 0

2. Compound pendulum
A uniform rod of
mass m and length
L is pivoted about
one end and
oscillates in a
vertical plane.
Assume its moment
of inertia is J.
3.Torsional Pendulum
A rigid body suspended by a wire attached at the top of a
fixed support. When the body is twisted through some small
angle , the twisted wire exerts a restoring torgue on the
body proportional to the angular displacement.

Energy in an S.H.M.
S.H.M. represents an ideal vibration where there
is no energy loss, so the sum of KE to PE stays
constant..
Continual cycle from KE to PE and back again.
At any one time the total energy is the sum of the
kinetic energy plus the potential energy.

Energy in an S.H.M.
How do these energies vary with time?
The variation will be as sin2t and cos2t
i.e.
Epot = E0 sin2t
Ekin = E0 cos2t
Etotal= E0 sin2t + E0 cos2t = E0
