The motion of An object repeating periodically around an equilibrium point with no loss in mechanical

energy. is defined as SIMPLE HARMONIC MOTION Or OSCILLATORY MOTION.

Examples;
A mass attached to a spring.
Simple pendulum.
Uniform Circular Motion.
Piston.

A simple pendulum consists of a small metal ball (called a bob) suspended by a long thread
from a rigid support, such that the bob is free to swing back and forth.
A spring-mass system -a spring sytem where a block is hung or attached at the free end of the spring.
A vibration or disturbance in space- wave

Waves transfer energy without transferring matter

 Sound is a series of waves (sound waves) caused by vibrations.
 Sound waves travel as a series of compressions and rarefactions through the air.
 They are longitudinal waves.

 Sound waves are reflected by hard surfaces like wall

 Reflection of sound waves can result in an echo or reverberation.
 An echo is a reflected sound that we can hear for a short time after the original sound.
 A reverberation occurs due to multiple reflections from walls, ceilings etc., (especially in
an empty room) within a very short time of the original sound
 Reverberation is the collection of reflected sounds from the surfaces in an enclosure like
an auditorium.
 amplitude – The height of a wave, which shows how loud a sound is.
 cochlea – The part of the inner ear that changes vibrations into electrical signals which
are then sent to the brain.
 decibel – The unit for measuring the loudness of sound (dB).
 eardrum – The thin membrane in the ear which vibrates when sound reaches it.
 frequency – The number of waves per second, which shows the pitch of a sound.
 hertz – The unit of frequency (Hz). 1 Hz = 1 wave per second.
 oscilloscope – An instrument that shows a picture of sound.
 pitch – How high or low a sound is.
 sound – A form of energy produced by vibrations, which is
 detected by the ears.
