What is simple harmonic motion?
Simple harmonic motion refers to the repetitive back and forth movement of an object around an equilibrium position, where the restoring force acting on the object is directly proportional to its displacement from the equilibrium position. This type of motion can be seen in various systems such as mass-spring systems, pendulums, and vibrating strings. The motion is characterized by a sinusoidal pattern with a constant frequency and amplitude, making it predictable and easy to analyze mathematically.
