The motion of a particle is given by x = A sin ωt + B cos ωt. The motion of the particle is


As x given in the question satisfies the simple harmonic motion equation


the above equation in question is a simple harmonic motion.


And can be represented as



Where , δ is the phase difference and .


And ,


In which can also be represented as,


δ can be written as


And becomes


Hence, amplitude becomes.
