${y_1} = 8\,\cos\, \omega t;\,{y_2} = 4\,\cos \,\left( {\omega t + \frac{\pi }{2}} \right)$ ;

are superposed on each other. The resulting amplitude and phase are respectively;
($A$) The amplitude of oscillation in the first case changes by a factor of $\sqrt{\frac{M}{m+M}}$, whereas in the second case it remains unchanged
($B$) The final time period of oscillation in both the cases is same
($C$) The total energy decreases in both the cases
($D$) The instantaneous speed at $x_0$ of the combined masses decreases in both the cases
