KillGorack 2023-07-16 15:51:45 A ball bouncing on the floor: When a ball bounces on the floor, it does not strictly follow simple harmonic motion. While it may exhibit some characteristics of oscillatory motion, factors such as air resistance and non-ideal surfaces can affect its motion and cause deviations from simple harmonic motion.
