detailed solution

Correct option is B

Given displacement of simple harmonic oscillator is  y=3cosπ/4-2ωt
to find Velocity differentiate above equation with respect to time t,   

 then  V=dydt=ddt3cosπ/4-2ωt
 


V=6ωsinπ/4-2ωt
Acceleration  a=dVdt=ddt6ωsinπ/4-2ωt
=6ω×-2ωcosπ/4-2ωt
=12ω2cosπ/4-2ωt
=4ω23cosπ/4-2ωt
a=-4ω2y
aα-y.
Hence, due to negative sign motion is SHM.
Clearly, from the equation 
ω1=2ω [standard equation y=acos(ωt+ φ )]
T1=2ω
T1=πω. So motion is SHM with period π/ω .
