What do you mean by oscillation? Define simple harmonic motion. What are the conditions for a body to perform SHM? Give examples of bodies that perform SHM.

Oscillation refers to the repeated motion of a body about a fixed point or equilibrium position. It can be periodic or non-periodic, depending on whether the motion follows a regular time pattern. Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM) is a special type of oscillatory motion in which the restoring force acting on the body is directly proportional … Read more
