What is oscillatory motion? Give its examples.

$A$ particle free to move along the $x$-axis has potential energy given by $U(x) = k[1 - \exp(-x^2)]$ for $-\infty \le x \le +\infty$,where $k$ is a positive constant of appropriate dimensions. Then:

The displacement of a particle in an oscillatory motion at a time $t$ is given by $x = 8 \sin \frac{\pi t}{4} \text{ cm}$. Calculate its displacement in the time interval $t = 0 \text{ s}$ to $t = 2 \text{ s}$. (in $\text{ cm}$)

The motion of a particle executing simple harmonic motion is described by the displacement function,$x(t) = A \cos (\omega t + \phi)$. If the initial $(t = 0)$ position of the particle is $1 \; cm$ and its initial velocity is $\omega \; cm/s$,what are its amplitude and initial phase angle? The angular frequency of the particle is $\pi \; s^{-1}$. If instead of the cosine function,we choose the sine function to describe the $SHM$: $x = B \sin (\omega t + \alpha)$,what are the amplitude and initial phase of the particle with the above initial conditions?
