3.3 Conclusions about the Dynamics of the S.H.M.

  


  • The elastic force responsible for an S.H.M. is always contrary and proportional to the displacement.

  • The frequency of the vibration of a body describing an S.H.M. depends solely on its mass and the elastic constant, while being independent of the amplitude of the vibration.
