- https://phys.libretexts.org/Learning_Objects/Visualizations_and_Simulations/PhET_Simulations/PhET%3A_Wave_on_a_StringExplore the wonderful world of waves! Even observe a string vibrate in slow motion. Wiggle the end of the string and make waves, or adjust the frequency and amplitude of an oscillator.

A system that oscillates with SHM is called a simple harmonic oscillator. In simple harmonic motion, the acceleration of the system, and therefore the net force, is proportional to the displacement and acts in the opposite direction of the displacement.

Since the electric and magnetic fields in most electromagnetic waves are perpendicular to the direction in which the wave moves, it is ordinarily a transverse wave. The strengths of the electric and magnetic parts of the wave are related by EB=c, which implies that the magnetic field B is very weak relative to the electric field E.

Simple harmonic motion is the motion that a particle exhibits when under the influence of a force of the form given by Hooke's law (named for the 17th century English scientist Robert Hooke): F=−kx.
