Identify the function which represents a periodic motion. (2020-Covid)
$ \log_e(\omega t) $
$ \sin \omega t + \cos \omega t $
$ e^{-\omega t} $
$ e^{\omega t} $

Solution:

The function $ \sin \omega t + \cos \omega t $ represents a superposition of two simple harmonic motions, making it periodic. The other given functions do not repeat their values over equal intervals of time.
