    Periodic motion refers to any motion or event that repeats itself in equal intervals of time, such as a rocking chair or Earth's orbit around the Sun. The key terms are period, which is the duration of one cycle, and frequency, which is the number of occurrences of an event over a given period of time. Simple harmonic motion is a type of oscillatory motion where the net force on the system is a restoring force, such as a spring. Formulas relate the period, frequency, wavelength, and velocity of periodic motions.
