The correct answer is:
$4 \mathrm{~A}$
The motion of particle in one oscillation is shown below
In moving from $O \rightarrow P$ distance moved is $A$. Similarly, for $P \rightarrow Q, Q \rightarrow R$ and $R \rightarrow S$, distance moved is $A$ in each case.
$\therefore$ Total distance moved in one oscillation $=4 \mathrm{~A}$
