Time period of a particle executing $SHM$ is $8 \, s$. At $t = 0$ it is at the mean position. The ratio of the distance covered by the particle in the $1^{st}$ second to the $2^{nd}$ second is:

  • A
    $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} + 1}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$
  • D
    $\sqrt{2} + 1$
