What else can I help you with?
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.
How is the motion of a pendulum like that of a wave?
A simple harmonic motion is one for which the acceleration of the body into consideration is proportional its displacement from the mean position and the direction of the acceleration is always directed towards that mean position. It can be shown that, provided that the amplitude of oscillation is small, the motion of a simple pendulum is simple harmonic. All simple harmonic motions follow one rule F=-kx . When the oscillation is small(around 5 °), the motion of simple pendulum is simple harmonic motion.
Would you keep amplitude of simple pendulum small or large?
Small: This is to ensure that the motion of the pendulum mostly stays along one direction, i.e. it is swinging back and forth as opposed to rotating or moving erratically. Only when the pendulum is moving in this manner can you say that it follows SHM - Simple Harmonic Motion (If that is the aim of the experiment)
What types of motion is noticed in the pendulum of clock and swing?
The pendulum of a clock exhibits simple harmonic motion, where it swings back and forth in a constant rhythm. A swing also exhibits simple harmonic motion as a person sits and moves back and forth, propelled by gravity and their own momentum.
Why you should keep the amplitude of simple pendulum small?
Because a larger angle will exacerbate the dampening effect. The dampening effect is an effect that tends to reduce the amplitude of any oscillations. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damping
Is oscillation of compound pendulum or simple pendulum is perfectly simple harmonic motion?
A simple pendulum exhibits simple harmonic motion
What is the motion of a pendulum?
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.
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
What type of motion is associated with a pendulum?
Simple harmonic motion
The back and forth motion of a pendulum is called?
Simple harmonic motion
What is that motion which is periodic but not harmonic?
what is difference between simple harmonic motion and vibratory motion?
Is a pendulum a wave?
A pendulum moves in simple harmonic motion. If a graph of the pendulum's motion is drawn with respect with respect to time, the graph will be a sine wave. Pure tones are experienced when the eardrum moves in simple harmonic motion. In these cases "wave" refers not to the thing moving, but to the graph representing the movement.

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.
