    Answer in your own words.

  2. Which of the following is an example of simple harmonic motion?
    A. A car driving down a straight road
    B. A mass attached to a spring oscillating back and forth
    C. A person walking in a circle
    D. A pendulum swinging with increasing speed

  3. In simple harmonic motion, the restoring force is proportional to what?
    A. The mass of the object
    B. The displacement from the equilibrium position
    C. The velocity of the object
    D. The amplitude of the motion

  4. What is the formula for the period (T) of a simple harmonic oscillator in terms of mass (m) and spring constant (k)?
    A. (T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}})
    B. (T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}})
    C. (T = \frac{1}{2\pi} \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}})
    D. (T = \frac{1}{2\pi} \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}})

  5. What happens to the frequency of a simple harmonic oscillator when the mass is increased, assuming the spring constant remains constant?
    Answer in your own words.
