Consider a block attached to a spring with the other end fixed to a rigid wall, as described. The block moves on a frictionless surface. Which of the following correctly represents the displacement function of the block?

A
x(t) = A cos ωt
B
x(t) = A sin ωt
C
x(t) = A cos (ωt + π/2)
D
x(t) = A sin (ωt + π/2)
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
The displacement of a block in simple harmonic motion can be expressed as x(t) = A cos ωt, according to the function described in the NCERT text.
