Question
The phonons in sound waves are considered as independent examples of these systems in the Debye model for specific heat. The Morse potential is used to measure deviation from these systems in infrared spectroscopy. Angular frequency times the ratio of energy stored to power lost gives these systems' Q-factor, which quantifies their level of damping. Since applying the small angle approximation allows them to be modeled with Hooke’s law, pendulums can be modeled as these systems. For 10 points, name these systems which exhibit periodic sinusoidal movement, whose ■END■
ANSWER: harmonic oscillator [accept simple harmonic oscillator or simple harmonic motion; accept damped harmonic oscillator or damped harmonic motion; accept quantum harmonic oscillator or quantum harmonic motion; accept SHO or SHM; accept QHO or QHM; prompt on spring before “spring” or pendulum until “pendulum” is read]
