$A$ particle is executing simple harmonic motion $(SHM)$ with a time period $T = 4 \ s$. At $t = 0$,the particle is at a position where its angular position is $45^\circ$ with the $x$-axis. Find the displacement equation of the particle along the $x$-axis.

  • A
    $x = a \sin(\frac{\pi}{2}t + \frac{\pi}{4})$
  • B
    $x = a \cos(\frac{\pi}{2}t + \frac{\pi}{4})$
  • C
    $x = a \sin(\frac{\pi}{4}t + \frac{\pi}{2})$
  • D
    $x = a \cos(\frac{\pi}{4}t + \frac{\pi}{4})$
