Two necessary conditions for oscillatory behavior of physical systems
Not what you're looking for?
There are at least two ways to describe the necessary conditions for oscillatory system behavior. Explain two of them.
My thoughts: I've heard of using displacement as the variable and using angular movement as the variable, but I am having a hard time confirming this/visualizing this theory. Would someone be able to confirm the validity and provide proof/explanation of these assumptions? If assumptions are wrong, what are the necessary conditions for oscillatory system behavior?

Solution Summary
We give two necessary conditions for a physical system to have in order for it to undergo oscillatory behavior.
Solution Preview
In order for a system to undergo oscillatory behavior, it must have an equilibrium state. The system will then undergo oscillatory behavior if it is displaced from equilibrium by a ...
