When the material is under compression, the forces on the ends are directed towards each other producing a compressive stress resulting in a compressive strain (Figure \PageIndex2).

It does not tell us where the force comes from, nor does it care - which is a very useful feature, as it means that the law applies to all forces. However, we do of course need to know what to put down for the force, so we need some rule to determine it independently. This is where the force laws come in.

At the endpoints of its motion (x=±A), the oscillator is momentarily at rest, and the energy is entirely potential; when passing through the equilibrium position (x=0), the energy is entirely kinetic.
