### Step-by-Step Solution #### Part 1: Ideal Simple Pendulum and Simple Harmonic Motion 1. **Definition of an Ideal Simple Pendulum**: An ideal simple pendulum consists of a massless string of length \( L \) attached to a rigid support, with a point mass \( M \) (the bob) at the other end. The motion occurs in a vertical plane, and we assume no air resistance or friction at the pivot. 2. **Conditions for Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM)**: ...
