y(t) = distance of weight from equilibrium position

ω= angular frequency (measured in radians per second)

A = amplitude

Ø= phase (depends on initial conditions)

c1 = A sin

c2 = A cos

Prove that: Asin(ωt+Ø)=c2sinωt+c1cosωt

Note: c1 and c2 are actually with the number slightly below the letter, if that makes sense. It wouldn't let me type it that way. Anyway, if anyone can help I would really appreciate it! Thank you!

An object moving along the x-axis is said to exhibit simple harmonic motion if its position as a function of time varies as

x(t) = x0 + A cos(ωt + φ).

The object oscillates about the equilibrium position x0.  If we choose the origin of our coordinate system such that x0 = 0, then the displacement x from the equilibrium position as a function of time is given by

x(t) = A cos(ωt + φ).

A is the amplitude of the oscillation, i.e. the maximum displacement of the object from equilibrium, either in the positive or negative x-direction.  Simple harmonic motion is repetitive.  The period T is the time it takes the object to complete one oscillation and return to the starting position.  The angular frequency ω is given by ω = 2π/T.  The angular frequency is measured in radians per second.  The inverse of the period is the frequency f = 1/T.  The frequency f = 1/T = ω/2π of the motion gives the number of complete oscillations per unit time.  It is measured in units of Hertz, (1 Hz = 1/s).

The velocity of the object as a function of time is given by

v(t) = dx(t)/dt = -ω A sin(ωt + φ),

and the acceleration is given by

a(t) = dv(t)/dt = -ω2A cos(ωt + φ) = -ω2x.

i dont know sorry
