Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A harmonic oscillator is driven at a frequency slightly above its natural frequency. Discuss how this affects the shape of the power vs. frequency graph and the average power absorbed.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how energy transfer changes when not at resonance.

Question 2

If the phase lag is increased while keeping the applied force constant, determine the effects this has on average power absorption.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Link changes in phase lag directly to the average power formula.
