Question
(More than one may be correct.)a. Any motion that is periodic is SHM.
b. The motion is due to a force whose magnitude is proportional to the displacement from equilibrium, and is directed towards the equilibrium position.
c. The position as a function of time is sinusoidal, i.e. can be expressed as a sine or cosine function.
d. The acceleration of the motion can be expressed as the square of a sine or cosine function.
e. The position and velocity are periodic, and have the same frequency and period.
