Harmonic oscillator

Classical Mechanics Level 2

When we light a parallel ray on the object(\(P\)) which is in uniform circular motion with angular velocity \(\omega\), the motion of its shadow(\(Q\)) on the right side screen is a harmonic oscillation. What are the displacement(vector) and period, respectively, of the harmonic oscillation of the shadow(\(Q\)) at time \(t\) as shown above?
