P2-43: CLASSICAL HARMONIC OSCILLATOR - QM INTRODUCTION

PURPOSE: Demonstrate the simple behavior of a classical particle moving in a quadratic field.

DESCRIPTION: Useful for demonstrating elementary properties of the motion, including turning points, the independence of amplitude and frequency, and visualizing the probability of finding the particle at different positions.

SUGGESTIONS:

REFERENCES: (PIRA unavailable.)

EQUIPMENT: Stringless pendulum demonstration.

SETUP TIME: None.
