We can model a molecular bond as a spring between two atoms that vibrate with simple harmonic motion.The figure below shows an simple harmonic motion approximation for the potential energy of an HCl molecule.This is a good approximation when E < 4 ×10^−19. Since mH << mCl, we assume that the hydrogen atomoscillates back and forth while the chlorine atom remains at rest. Estimate the oscillation frequency of theHCl molecule using information in the figure below.

A simple pendulum with a length of 1.73 m and a mass of 6.74 kg is given an initial speed of 2.36 m/s at its equilibrium position. (a) Assuming it undergoes simple harmonic motion, determine its period (in s). (b) Determine its total energy (in J). (c) Determine its maximum angular displacement (in degrees). (For large v, and/or small /, the small angle approximation may not be good enough here.) (d) What If? Based on your answer to part (c), by what factor would the total energy of the pendulum have to be reduced for its motion to be described as simple harmonic motion using the small angle approximation where 0 ≤ 10°?
