Question

A large number of random snap shots using a camera are taken of a particle in simple harmonic motion between x=-x₀ and x=+x₀ with origine x=0 as the mean position. A histogram of the total number of times the particle is recorded about a given position (Event no.) would most closely resemble

Correct answer: 2

In SHM particle comes 2 times at every position in 1 oscillation, so actual histogram may be option (A) but since at it random snap shots so it should be option (C)
