Solution
Oscillatory motion is represented by the simple pendulum.
An ideal simple pendulum is a heavy pointed mass substandard by a weightless in-extensible and perfectly flexible string to array that support.
The suspended thread attaches to the bob. Bob is displaced from its mean position to perform to and fro motion about the fixed position. The motion is regular and repeating. It is an example of periodic motion.
