Point mass at the end of a massless string of length
Simple Pendulum
T does not produce a torque, since the line of action goes through point P
Very complicated differential equation!But for small oscillations:
And

Physical Pendulum
Extended object of mass that swings back and forth about an axis P that does not go through its center of mass CM.
For small oscillations:

Example
A uniform disk of mass M and radius R is pivoted at a point at the rim. Find the period for small oscillations.

Diatomic molecule near equilibrium
Near equilibrium (potential minimum): approximately quadratic approximately linear
Expansion about :
for small displacement from equilibrium:
