- - - - Restoring force is the force that pushes or pulls the mass back to equilibrium
    - - The number of complete cycles in one second is the frequency.
  - - - Electrical oscillations occur in TV's and radio's, atoms vibrate around a fixed spot.
  - - - The Applied Force is in the opposite direction of the Spring Force
        
        The larger the value k, the stiffer the spring
  - - - When mass increases, the period also increases.
      - When the spring constant increases, the period decreases
      - f=1/T=(1/2pi)sqrt(k/m)
  - - - At the equilibrium position the potential is at its minimum and kinetic is at its maximum.
        
        U_s=U_spring=1/2 k x^2
        
        K.E.=1/2 mv^2
  - - - Damping is due to friction and air
  - - - When an outside force is constantly applied it creates forced vibrations
        
        The amplitude of the forced vibration depends on the difference between f and f_0.
