Simple harmonic motion occurs when a restoring force is proportional to displacement. Pendulums, springs, and vibrating strings exhibit this predictable oscillatory behavior.

Worked Examples
Влез
m = 1 kg, k = 100 N/m, A = 0.1 m
Резултат
T ≈ 0.628 s, f ≈ 1.59 Hz
T = 2π√(m/k)
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- ✕Confusing amplitude with period
- ✕Assuming frequency and period are the same value
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the period independent of amplitude?
Yes, in ideal SHM. A pendulum or spring oscillates with the same period regardless of oscillation size.
How does mass affect oscillation?
Heavier masses oscillate more slowly; the period is proportional to √m.
