If you tie a string to the end of a block and grab the end of the open string, moving your hand up and down, you will in effect, be creating a harmonic oscillation.

What is the complete back and forth motion of an object or material?

This type of motion is called harmonic motion. This occurs when an object is attached to spring.


Is a bouncing ball an example of simple harmonic motion?

It is not an example of a simple harmonic motion. For a simple harmonic motion, the equilibrium point must be in the middle of the applitude. The object must oscillate about equalibrium point.


More differences between simple harmonic motion and periodic motion with practical examples?

because we see that in simple harmonic motion there are trignometric function from which we can define its equation of motion. now we know that these function are periodically but bounded to some conditions that's why all periodic function can not be simple harmonic motions.


The maximum distance an object in simple harmonic motion moves from equilibrium is called the?

amplitude

Is uniform circular motion a simple harmonic motion?

Simple Harmonic motion is circular motion. Look at a graph showing simple harmonic motion... you'll see it.

Can you say circular motion is a harmonic motion?

No. "Simple harmonic motion" is motion in a single dimension; it can be represented as the projection of a uniform circular motion.


Can a body in motion can never have zero average velocity?

While a body in motion cannot have zero average velocity, there are many examples where the average velocity - after selected intervals - is zero. For example: a pendulum, or any object under simple harmonic motion, after a complete number of cycles; a rotating object (point on a wheel or hand of a clock) after a whole number of circuits.


How you called an object in harmonic motion?

When the acceleration is directly proportional to the displacement from a fixed point and always directed towards that fixed point then such an oscillation or vibration is said to be simple harmonic


Give few examples of circular motion?

1) Pathway of a charged particle when it enters a magnetic field... 2) Pendulum oscillations. (simple harmonic motion)
