SUMMARY

The discussion centers on identifying a textbook related to the topic of energy in simple harmonic motion. A user references a ten-year-old forum post and suggests searching for "15.3 Energy in Simple Harmonic Motion" to find relevant resources. The OpenStax textbook, "University Physics I - Mechanics, Sound, Oscillations, and Waves," published in 2016, is highlighted as a suitable alternative that covers this topic comprehensively. The user expresses satisfaction with the updated version despite not finding the original book.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of simple harmonic motion concepts
  • Familiarity with physics textbooks, particularly OpenStax materials
  • Basic knowledge of online research techniques
  • Awareness of educational resources in physics
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the OpenStax "University Physics I" textbook for detailed explanations of simple harmonic motion
  • Explore additional resources on energy conservation in oscillatory systems
  • Investigate other physics textbooks that cover similar topics
  • Learn about the historical context and evolution of physics education materials
USEFUL FOR

Students, educators, and physics enthusiasts seeking to deepen their understanding of simple harmonic motion and its associated educational resources.

Physics news on Phys.org
Every freshman physics text should cover this topic.
 
Big thanks! I tried googling, though I didn't find the same book. Probably that's because current openstax University Physics is newer (published in 2016). Nevertheless, I am satisfied with the new version too
