SHM and the quantities on the graphs

An oscillator moves to and fro about an equilibrium position, where the resultant force would be zero. In simple harmonic motion, the acceleration is proportional to the displacement and always directed back toward equilibrium:

Step-by-step lessons on Edexcel A Level Physics Oscillator graphs. Each one builds up to exam-style questions. Physics is one of the most mathematically demanding A Levels -- at least 40% of the marks across the three papers require maths skills at Level 2 (GCSE) standard or above, so build calculation and graph-handling fluency alongside the conceptual content from the start.
