A
Acceleration =$-k(x+a)$
💡 Explanation:

Simple harmonic motion (SHM) is defined by a restoring force (or acceleration) that is directly proportional to the negative displacement from the equilibrium position, expressed as a = -kx. Option B represents this form, where the equilibrium position is shifted by 'a'.
