Simple Harmonic Force is Opposite and Proportional to Displacement Harmonic motion is a special type of vibrational motion. Suppose, an oscillating particle N between points…

Characteristic of force for simple harmonic motion: If the acceleration of an oscillating particle is proportional to distance from its equilibrium position and always towards…

Periodic Motion We see a pendulum moves right and left or we also see the motion a spring expanding and contracting [Fig (a)]. We see…

Characteristics of periodic motion: Characteristics of periodic motion are the velocity of the object, the period of motion and the amplitude of the motion. Periodic…

Oscillatory Motion A particle having periodic motion remains half of its time period in one direction and the rest of time period remains in other…

Temporal periodicity If the time period of periodic motion is with respect to time, then it is called temporal periodicity. For example, the earth rotating…

Spacial periodicity If the time period is with respect to space or position, then it is called spacial periodicity. For example, the time period of…

Periodicity is the quality or character of being periodic; the tendency to recur at intervals. If a body returns to a particular place at a…
