Simple Harmonic Motion Calculator

Physical Parameters	Transient Response:
Click and drag the blue numbers to change their values. $m$ : , $c$ : , $k$ : $\omega_0$ = 10.0 ${\rm s}^{-1}$ , $f_0$ = 1.59 Hz, $T$ = 0.63 s $\omega_d$ = 9.9 ${\rm s}^{-1}$ , $\gamma$ = 1.00 ${\rm s}^{-1}$ $\Delta f$ = 0.32 Hz, $Q$ = 5.0 "Reverb time" $\ T_R$ = 6.91 s

Steady State Response:

The Δƒ mark matches the curve only when the "weak damping limit" (

\omega_d \simeq \omega_0

) is satisfied.
