A particle hanging from a thread is launched horizontally such that it completes a circle. Is the motion periodic or oscillatory?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine whether the motion of a particle hanging from a thread and launched horizontally is periodic or oscillatory, we can analyze the definitions and characteristics of both types of motion. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Periodic Motion**: - Periodic motion is defined as motion that repeats itself after a fixed time interval. Examples include circular motion and the motion of a pendulum. 2. **Understanding Oscillatory Motion**: ...
