Ellen says that whenever the acceleration is directly proportional to the displacement of an object from its equilibrium position, the motion of the object is simple harmonic motion. Mary says this is true only if the acceleration is opposite in direction to the displacement. Which one, if either, is correct?

◦
Ellen, because ω2 is directly proportional to the constant multiplying the displacement and to the mass.

◦
Ellen, because ω2 is directly proportional to the mass.

◦
Mary, because ω2 is directly proportional to the constant multiplying the displacement and to the mass.

◦
Mary, because ω2 is directly proportional to the mass.

◦
Mary, because the second derivative of an oscillatory function like sin(ωt) or cos(ωt) is always proportional to the negative of the original function.

Drug abusers experience the following scenario: The pleasure given by their drug (or drugs) of choice is so strong that it is difficult to eradicate even after years of staying away from the substances involved. Certain triggers may cause a drug abuser to relapse. Research shows that long-term drug abuse results in significant changes in brain function that persist long after an individual stops using drugs. It is most important to realize that the same is true of not just illegal substances but alcohol and tobacco as well.
