oscillationspecifically
Oscillation refers to a repetitive variation, typically in time, of some measure about a central value or between two or more different states. This phenomenon is ubiquitous in nature and technology, appearing in systems ranging from the microscopic world of atoms to the macroscopic scale of celestial bodies. A fundamental characteristic of an oscillation is its period, which is the time it takes for the system to complete one full cycle of its motion. The frequency, conversely, is the number of cycles that occur per unit of time, and it is the inverse of the period. The amplitude describes the maximum displacement or extent of the oscillation from its equilibrium position.
Simple harmonic motion is a particularly important type of oscillation where the restoring force is directly
