Newton's law of motion states that an object will remain at rest or in uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force. This means that an object will keep doing what it's doing unless something pushes or pulls on it. In simpler terms for kids, it can be explained as "an object will keep moving or stay still unless something makes it move or stop."

What is a research study?

Analysing the things by asking the questions,why? what? how?...etc to understand strange or unknown things to be explained in a simple way.


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.


What is the difference between periodic motion and simple harmonic motion?

Periodic motion refers to any motion that repeats at regular intervals, while simple harmonic motion is a specific type of periodic motion where the restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement from equilibrium. In simple terms, all simple harmonic motion is periodic, but not all periodic motion is simple harmonic.


Does a pendulum undergo 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


Is oscillation of compound pendulum or simple pendulum is perfectly simple harmonic motion?

Simple harmonic motion


When will the motion of simple pendulum be shm?

The motion of the simple pendulum will be in simple harmonic if it is in oscillation.


Why is a pendulum not considered simple harmonic motion?

A pendulum is not considered simple harmonic motion because its motion is affected by factors like air resistance and friction, which can cause deviations from the idealized simple harmonic motion pattern.


How can you determine if a motion follows the principles of simple harmonic motion?

To determine if a motion follows the principles of simple harmonic motion, you can analyze if the motion is periodic, has a restoring force proportional to displacement, and has a constant frequency.


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

Simple harmonic motion is a type of periodic motion where the restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement from equilibrium. Practical examples include a swinging pendulum or a mass-spring system. Periodic motion, on the other hand, refers to any repeated motion that follows the same path at regular intervals, such as the motion of a wheel rotating. So, while all simple harmonic motion is periodic, not all periodic motion is necessarily simple harmonic.
