This lecture covers the concepts of circular motion, including uniform circular motion and uniformly accelerated circular motion, as well as the harmonic oscillator. It discusses the equations of motion, accelerations, and angular accelerations involved in these systems, with a focus on the principles of physics governing them. The lecture also delves into the oscillations of double springs, exploring the equilibrium positions, forces, and accelerations in such systems. Dr. Sylvain Bréchet from EPFL guides the audience through the mathematical derivations and physical interpretations of these fundamental mechanical phenomena.
