Question

The motion which is not simple harmonic is:

  1. Vertical oscillations of spring
  2. The motion of a planet around the sun
  3. Horizontal oscillations of spring
  4. Motion of a simple pendulum

hintHint:

Simple Harmonic Motion is defined as a motion in which the restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement of the body from its mean position.

The correct answer is: The motion of a planet around the sun


    In the motion of planet around the Sun, there is no oscillatory motion hence the motion is not simple harmonic
