Which of the following example represent (nearly) simple harmonic motion and which represent periodic but not simple harmonic motion?
The motion of a ball bearing inside a smooth curved bowl, when released from a point slightly above the lowermost point.

उत्तर
The ball moves to and fro about the lowermost point of the bowl when released. Also, the ball comes back to its initial position in the same period of time, again and again. Hence, its motion is periodic as well as simple harmonic.
