The correct option is (b) False

Explanation: In a SHM, the speed is maximum at the mean position and goes on decreasing towards the extreme position.                                                                                                                                                                        So the speed at every position from 0 to A/2 is greater than that from A/2 to A.                                                      Thus, the first half is covered faster.
