Solution

The correct option is A True
  1. In both oscillatory and vibratory motion, the motion of the bodies is repetitive.
  2. The time taken to complete a single oscillation or vibration remains the same.
  3. When a body repeats its motion after a fixed time interval, its motion is called periodic motion.
  4. For example; the motion of the earth around the sun is periodic, and the movement of the hands of a clock is also a periodic motion.

Thus, the given statement is true.
