    What is oscillatory motion ?

    What is an oscillatory motion ?

    Can a motion be periodic and not oscillatory ?

    Every oscillatory motion is also a periodic motion. But every periodic motion may not be oscillatory. Why?

    STATEMENT-1 : An oscillatory motion is necessarily periodic. and STATEMENT -2 : A simple harmonic motion is necessarily osciallatory.

    Who explain the motion of planets around the sun?

    All oscillatory motions are periodic by nature. Explain.
