Problem
Consider a body that is oscillating about an equilibrium position.
(a) What does the body experience when it is not at the equilibrium position?
(b) Outline how this experience causes the body to oscillate?
(c) What special condition occurs when the body oscillates in SHM?
(d) Hence, define *SHM*.
