MCQ
Identify the correct definition
  • A
    If after every certain interval of time, particle repeats its motion then motion is called periodic motion
  • B
    To and fro motion of a particle over the same path about its mean position in certain time interval is called oscillatory motion
  • C
    Oscillatory motion described in terms of single sine and cosine functions is called simple harmonic motion
  • All of these

Answer

Correct option: D.
All of these
d
