  1. harmonic motion

    Harmonic motion, also known as simple harmonic motion, is a type of periodic oscillation where the restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement and acts in the direction opposite to that of displacement. It typically occurs in systems that have a stable equilibrium position. Examples of harmonic motion include the swinging of a pendulum, the vibration of a stretched string or spring, and the oscillation of atoms in a crystal lattice.
