A + B
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
Given equation of simple harmonic motion,
Here, 
is the mean position of the simple harmonic motion on the 
-axis.
The amplitude is the maximum displacement from the mean position.
So, the amplitude of the simple harmonic motion is 
.
