How is this motion similar and different from that of a ball bouncing on a hard floor

How is simple harmonic motion similar AND different from that of a ball bouncing on a hard floor? (HINT: one similarity AND two differences)

Answer

Similarity -> Both ane oscillatory motion, both move to & fro.

Differences Harmonic Mobius ane periodic and repeat after a fixed interval of time,

But bouncing ball Amplitude. Continue Dechones, it is non-periodic motion.

In Harmonic motion, energy Remain conserve but in Bouncing Ball, Energy continuously decrees, and finally, it will come in pesto
