  • A
    The motion is oscillatory but not $S.H.M.$
  • B
    The motion is $S.H.M.$ with amplitude $a$
  • C
    The motion is $S.H.M.$ with amplitude $a\sqrt{2}$

The figure shows the circular motion of a particle. The radius of the circle is $B$,the period is $30 \ s$,the sense of revolution is clockwise,and the initial position at $t = 0$ is at an angle of $45^\circ$ (or $\pi/4$ radians) with the positive $y$-axis in the first quadrant. The simple harmonic motion of the $x$-projection of the radius vector of the rotating particle $P$ is:
