Lecture

Forced Harmonic Oscillator: Resonance

Description

This lecture covers the forced harmonic oscillator, damping, resonance phenomenon, and the solutions to the homogeneous and inhomogeneous equations. It explains the application of initial conditions, the power dissipated by the motor, and the quality factor of the resonator. The instructor discusses the equation of motion, the general solution, and the specific solution. The lecture also delves into the amplitude of oscillations in resonance, the conservation of momentum, and the different types of collisions, including elastic and inelastic collisions.
