Simple Harmonic Motion (16 of 16): Equations, Example Problems

[@anthonypipkin]

This is a great video. Two things I would like to know that would help me better understand and remember the formulas: 1) how are the graphs/formulas derived in a real world scenario (I’m sure there are specialists that would use this and I’m curious what that might look like as a career); 2) having this knowledge, how can I apply it? As a software dev, I apply CS theory to my daily routines a lot. Is this the same for mathematicians as well? If so, I’d be thrilled to hear more about these theories and where they originated or how were they synthesized and how do they work in math and how do they work in life. Just a few thoughts :) great content!

Here is a video that shows how the graphs are generated: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gISlqGCArquakM0 The second part of your question is a bit beyond the scope of my ability to comment here.

[@anthonypipkin]

@@stepbystepscience so does that mean a possible video that covers that second question? :)

I don't understand the slope here and how it equals velocity

[@stepbystepscience]

The velocity is distance divided by time. So for these graphs it is the change in the y-axis divided by the change in the x-axis. The graphs are a curve but they still have a slope at each point and the slope at each point is equal to the velocity.
