A particle of mass m that is attached to a light spring is executing simple harmonic motion in a horizontal direction. State the condition relating to the net force acting on the particle that is necessary for it to execute simple harmonic motion.

Answer :

Answer:

Simple harmonic motion is a special type of oscillatory motion. For simple harmonic motion to occur

  • there should be a restoring force
  • the acceleration, and consequently the net force should be directly proportional to the displacement
  • the acceleration and the net force should act in the opposite direction of the displacement.
