Given below are two statements: 
Assertion (A): The combination of \(y=\text{sin}\omega t+\text{cos}2\omega t\) is not a simple harmonic function even though it is periodic.
Reason (R): All periodic functions satisfy the relation \( \dfrac{d^{2} y}{d t^{2}}=-k y \).
  
1. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is True but (R) is False.
4. Both (A) and (R) are False.

Two SHMs of the form:
\(x=A+A\text{sin}\omega t\\ y=A-A\text{sin}\omega t\)
are superposed on a particle, along \(x\) and \(y\) directions. The resultant of these motions is:
1. circular motion
2. SHM along \(x\)-axis
3. SHM along \(y\)-axis
4. SHM, but along a direction other than \(x\) or \(y\)-axis
