Total Mechanical Energy in Simple Harmonic Motion

The video tutorial covers the derivation of equations related to simple harmonic motion in mass spring systems. It begins with an introduction to simple harmonic motion and mass spring systems, followed by a detailed derivation of elastic potential energy stored in a spring. The tutorial then explains the equations for position and velocity in mass spring systems, leading to the calculation of total mechanical energy. The video simplifies these energy equations using trigonometric identities and concludes with a derivation of maximum velocity in simple harmonic motion.
