Heya ❤

Oscillatory motion is the repeated to and fro movement of a system from its equilibrium position. Every system at rest is in its equilibrium position. At this point, no external force is acting on it. Therefore, the net force acting on the system is zero. Now, if this system is displaced a little from its fixed point, a force acts on the system which tries to bring back the system to its fixed point. This force is the restoring force and it gives rise to oscillations or vibrations.

For example, consider a ball that is placed in a bowl. It will be in its equilibrium position. If displaced a little from this point, it will oscillate in the bowl. Therefore, every oscillatory motion is periodic but all periodic motions are not oscillatory. For instance, the circular motion is a periodic motion but not oscillatory.

Answer 2

Answer:

A motion repeating itself is called oscillatory motion.
