displacement
Simple harmonic motion, In mechanics and physics, is a type of periodic motion where the restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement. A good example of this is a pendulum.
A motion is simple harmonic if the acceleration of the particle is proportional to the displacement of the particle from the mean position and the acceleration is always directed towards that mean position.
no because it doesn't have a restoring
The characteristics of simple harmonic motion are undamped, undriven, periodic motion. Any equation of motion that can be derived through the use of the following restoring force: F = -kx, where F is the force vector, k is the spring constant, and x is displacement vector, will exhibit simple harmonic motion. The motion itself is described by the equation x(t) = Acos(wt + p), where x(t) is the position as a function of time, A is the amplitude of the motion, w is its angular frequency, and p is the phase.
It must be directly proportional to the displacement.
Yes.

No. Simple harmonic motion requires that the acceleration is proportional to the displacement (and in the opposite direction). It is possible to have periodic motion where that is not the case.
A body undergoes simple harmonic motion if the acceleration of the particle is proportional to the displacement of the particle from the mean position and the acceleration is always directed towards that mean. Provided the amplitude is small, a swing is an example of simple harmonic motion.
A motion is simple harmonic if the acceleration of the particle is proportional to the displacement of the particle from the mean position and the acceleration is always directed towards that mean position.
Simple Harmonic motion is circular motion. Look at a graph showing simple harmonic motion... you'll see it.
no because it doesn't have a restoring
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

A simple pendulum exhibits simple harmonic motion
A simple pendulum undergoes simple harmonic motion only for small amplitudes because for small amplitudes the motion almost reduces to a straight line motion. Simple harmonic motion means motion on a straight not on curves
