HI MANICHANDRA,
                             Simple harmonic motion means it is a type of periodic motion where the restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement and acts in the direction opposite to that of displacement.

Obviously, the equilibrium state of the simple pendulum corresponds to the situation in which the mass ... Unfortunately, this is not the simple harmonic equation.

Simple harmonic motion is any motion where a restoring force is applied that is proportional to the displacement and in the opposite direction of that displacement.
