    Answer:Stretched rubber band with an mass

    Explanation:

    Simple harmonic motion requires a restoring force.

    Simple harmonic motion should be periodic.

    Option A:

    When a rubber band is stretched, the internal forces of the rubber band pulls the band inside. So, internal forces are the restoring forces in a rubber band.

    The motion is periodic as well since the the rubber band makes to an fro motion expanding ans contracting.

    So, this performs SHM.

    Option B:

    There is no restoring force and no periodicity.

    So, this is not SHM.

    Option C:

    There is no restoring force and no periodicity.

    So, this is not SHM.

    Option D:

    There is periodicity but no restoring force.

    So, this is not SHM.
