Answer:

The first occurence of t for which x = 0 is t = 0.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The harmonic motion is described by the following equation.

x(t) = 3\cos{\pi t}

What is the first occurrence of a value of t for which x = 0?

This is t when x(t) = 0. So

x(t) = 3\cos{\pi t}

3\cos{\pi t} = 0

\cos{\pi t} = \frac{0}{3}

\cos{\pi t} = 0

The inverse of the cosine is the arcosine. So we apply the arcosine function to both sides of the equality.

\arccos{\cos{\pi t}} = \arccos{0}

\pi t = \frac{\pi}{2}

t = \frac{\pi}{2 \pi}

t = \frac{1}{2}

t = 0.5

The first occurence of t for which x = 0 is t = 0.5.

What is the value of log2 128?
DedPeter [7]
If you get confused by logarithms, here's an easier way to think about this problem: What power of 2 equals 128? Well, we know 2^3 = 8, then 2^4 must equal 16. Doubling every times, we get 2^5 = 32, 2^6 = 64 and 2^7 = 128. So, the value of log₂128 is 7.
