$A$ stone is swinging in a horizontal circle $0.8 \, m$ in diameter at $30 \, rev/min$. $A$ distant horizontal light beam causes a shadow of the stone to be formed on a nearly vertical wall. The amplitude and period of the simple harmonic motion for the shadow of the stone are:

  • A
    $0.4 \, m, 4 \, s$
  • B
    $0.2 \, m, 2 \, s$
  • C
    $0.4 \, m, 2 \, s$
  • D
    $0.8 \, m, 2 \, s$
