A vibratory motion is represented by $x = 2\,A\,\cos \,\omega t + A\,\cos \,\left( {\omega t + \frac{\pi }{2}} \right) + A\,\cos \,\left( {\omega t + \pi } \right) + \frac{A}{2}\,\cos \,\left( {\omega t + \frac{{3\pi }}{2}} \right)$ The resultant amplitude of motion is
  • A$\frac{9\,A}{2}$
  • B$\frac{{\sqrt 5 \,A}}{2}$
  • C$\frac{5\,A}{2}$
  • D$2\,A$
