Identify the correct definition:

1. If after every certain interval of time, a particle repeats its motion, then the motion is called periodic motion.
2. To and fro motion of a particle is called oscillatory motion.
3. Oscillatory motion described in terms of single sine and cosine functions is called simple harmonic motion.
4. All of the above

The angular velocities of three bodies in simple harmonic motion are \(\omega_1, \omega_2, \omega_3\) with their respective amplitudes as \(A_1, A_2, A_3.\) If all the three bodies have the same mass and maximum velocity, then:
1. \(A_1 \omega_1=A_2 \omega_2=A_3 \omega_3\)
2. \(A_1 \omega_1^2=A_2 \omega_2^2=A_3 \omega_3^2\)
3. \(A_1^2 \omega_1=A_2^2 \omega_2=A_3^2 \omega_3\)
4. \(A_1^2 \omega_1^2=A_2^2 \omega_2^2=A^2\)
