Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM) is the name given to oscillatory motion for a system where the net force can be described by Hooke’s law, and such a system is called a simple harmonic oscillator.
They are also the simplest oscillatory systems. The oscillations of a system in which the net force can be described by Hooke’s law are of special importance, because they are very common.
Explain the link between simple harmonic motion and waves.
