11g

(g) *show that the total energy of an undamped simple harmonic system is given by E = 1/2 mA 2ω2 and recognise that this is a constant

11h

(h) recognise and use E = 1/2 mA 2ω2 to solve problems

11i

(i) distinguish between free, damped and forced oscillations

11j

(j) recall how the amplitude of a forced oscillation changes at and around the natural frequency of a system and describe, qualitatively, how damping affects resonance. 12
