Solution:
The expression represents two perpendicular SHMs of the same frequency with a phase difference of \(\frac{\pi}{2}\). The resultant amplitude is \(A = \sqrt{\alpha^2 + \beta^2}\).
The displacement of a harmonic oscillator is given by \(x = \alpha \sin\omega t + \beta \cos\omega t\). The amplitude of the oscillation is
