What to Focus On

  • Periodic motion repeats after equal intervals of time.
  • Period T is the least time after which motion repeats.
  • Frequency ν = 1/T.

  • Displacement can represent non-positional quantities like voltage or pressure.
  • Amplitude A is maximum displacement.
  • Phase determines the instantaneous state of motion.

  • SHM is a special case of oscillatory motion.
  • Displacement in SHM is sinusoidal.
  • Force is proportional to displacement and opposite in direction.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Every periodic motion is simple harmonic motion.

Oscillatory motion and periodic motion mean the same thing.

The period and frequency are always integers.

Memory Tips

Periodic motion and oscillatory motion

Circular motion is periodic but not oscillatory

SHM as the simplest oscillatory motion

Displacement in SHM
