Can a motion be periodic and non oscillatory?

A motion can be both periodic (a repetitive function) and also be non-oscillatory due the condition that the motion (mechanical) occurs during a set time interval from t1 to (t1 + T); with T being the period. The non-oscillatory part happens when the motions fails to move or travel between two reference points during all the time periods, T. Examples are the vibrations of musical instruments, earth quakes, or shock absorbers. These things are examples of decaying waveforms.


Why a periodic motion may not be an oscillatory motion?

periodic motion is a motion of body wich repeats itself in equal intervals of time , but a oscillatory motion is a periodic motion which is about a mean position . so all periodic motions could not be a oscillatory motion , but all oscillatory motions are periodic in nature.


Can the motion of a body be oscillatory but not periodic?

Yes, the motion of a body can be oscillatory without being periodic. Oscillatory motion refers to movement that involves repeated back and forth motion around a central point, while periodic motion is characterized by motion that repeats at regular intervals. If the oscillations of a body do not occur at equal time intervals or with a consistent pattern, the motion would be oscillatory but not periodic.


Can a motion be oscillatory but not simple harmonic?

Yes, a motion can be oscillatory without being simple harmonic. Simple harmonic motion specifically refers to a type of oscillatory motion where the restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement. Other types of oscillatory motion can have different relationships between the restoring force and displacement, making them non-simple harmonic.

Why is oscillatory motion differs periodic motion?

Simple harmonic motion is what we might say is happening when an object is in some non-complex periodic way. That is, the object experiences a force that displaces it, the displacement occurs and reaches some maximum value, and then the object returns to the "original" conditions and repeats the process. Let's take the example of a pendulum and consider what is happening.A periodic function is a function that repeats its values in regular intervals or periods. The most important examples are the trigonometric functions, which repeat over intervals of length 2Ï€.


Differences between vibratory and oscillatory motion?

In vibratory motion, the body doesn't move as a whole.where as in oscillatory motion the body moves on whole .and in vibratory motion the amplitude is less ,where as in the oscillatory motion the amplitude is comparitively larger than the vibratory motion .


What is the difference between periodic motion and oscillatory motion?

The word oscillatory refers to something that moves back and forth repeatedly. The word periodic refers to something that repeats after a regular amount of time. While oscillatory motion will almost certainly be periodic, not all periodic motion will be oscillatory.A common example is the orbit of the earth around the sun. A complete orbit takes roughly 365 days and therefore this is a periodic motion. However, cannot be said to be oscillatory.It may help to think of oscillatory motion as a certain type of periodic motion, much as a square is a certain type of rectangle.


Is pendulum an example of oscillatory motion?

yes it is. as the weight of the string and gravitational force, etc is not considered it is an eg. of oscillatory motion
