What is the definition of oscillation in the context of SHM?
Oscillation is the random movement of an object without a fixed point.
Oscillation refers to the constant speed of an object in a straight line.
Oscillation is the repetitive movement of an object around an equilibrium position in SHM.
Oscillation is the one-time movement of an object away from its starting position.

Explain the concept of restoring force in simple harmonic motion.
The restoring force only acts when the object is at rest.
The restoring force is constant and does not depend on displacement.
The restoring force in simple harmonic motion is the force that brings the system back to its equilibrium position, proportional to the displacement and acting in the opposite direction.
The restoring force is always directed away from the equilibrium position.

How does the amplitude of oscillation affect the restoring force?
The restoring force increases with greater amplitude due to increased displacement.
The restoring force is constant regardless of the amplitude of oscillation.
The amplitude has no effect on the restoring force at all.
The restoring force decreases with greater amplitude due to increased displacement.

Describe the relationship between potential energy and kinetic energy in SHM.
Potential energy remains constant throughout SHM.
Kinetic energy is always greater than potential energy in SHM.
In SHM, potential energy and kinetic energy are interconverted; potential energy is maximum at maximum displacement, while kinetic energy is maximum at equilibrium.
Kinetic energy is maximum at maximum displacement.

Define phase in the context of simple harmonic motion.
The phase refers to the frequency of the motion.
The phase indicates the total energy of the system.
The phase in simple harmonic motion is the position of the oscillating object in its cycle, measured in radians or degrees.
The phase is the amplitude of the oscillation.
