Over a 24-hour period, the tide in a harbor can be modeled by one period of a sinusoidal function. the tide measures 5.15 ft at
RSB [31]
<span>f(x) = 5.05*sin(x*pi/12) + 5.15

   First, you need to determine the period of the function. The period will be the time interval between identical points on the sinusoidal function. For this problem, the tide is rising and at 5.15 at midnight for two consecutive days. So the period is 24 hours. Over that 24 hour period, we want the parameter passed to sine to range from 0 to 2*pi. So the scale factor for x will be 2*pi/24 = pi/12 which is approximately 0.261799388. The next thing to note is the magnitude of the wave. That will simply be the difference between the maximum and minimum values. So 10.2 ft - 0.1 ft = 10.1 ft. And since the value of sine ranges from -1 to 1, we need to divide that magnitude by 2, so 10.1 ft / 2 = 5.05 ft.

   So our function at this point looks like f(x) = 5.05*sin(x*pi/12) But the above function ranges in value from -5.05 to 5.05. So we need to add a bias to it in order to make the low value equal to 0.1. So 0.1 = X - 5.05, 0.1 + 5.05 = X, 5.15 = X. So our function now looks like:
  f(x) = 5.05*sin(x*pi/12) + 5.15

   The final thing that might have been needed would have been a phase correction. With this problem, we don't need a phase correction since at X = 0 (midnight), the value of X*pi/12 = 0, and the sine of 0 is 0, so the value of the equation is 5.15 which matches the given value of 5.15. But if the problem had been slightly different and the height of the tide at midnight has been something like 7 feet, then we would have had to calculate a phase shift value for the function and add that constant to the parameter being passed into sine, making the function look like:
 f(x) = 5.05*sin(x*pi/12 + C) + 5.15
  where
 C = Phase correction offset.

   But we don't need it for this problem, so the answer is:
 f(x) = 5.05*sin(x*pi/12) + 5.15

   Note: The above solution assumes that angles are being measured in radians. If you're using degrees, then instead of multiplying x by 2*pi/24 = pi/12, you need to multiply by 360/24 = 15 instead, giving f(x) = 5.05*sin(x*15) + 5.15</span>

A motorcycle running on gasoline wastes a large amount of energy mainly as A) heat energy and sound energy. B) light energy and
vlada-n [284]

A motorcycle mainly wastes energy as heat <u>energy</u> and <u>sound</u> energy. In the engine, chemical energy is transformed into mechanical energy. However, the engine is inefficient and much of the chemical energy is lost as heat energy. Also, some of the energy is transformed to sound energy. This explains why the motorcycle is noisy and has an exhaust pipe.

What color would a yellow cloth appear to have if illuminated with sunlight?
den301095 [7]
The colour we see is a measure of the wavelengths of light nor absorbed by the cloth. We would call the colour of the cloth blue if it absorbed longer wavelengths of yellow/orange/red. Sunlight contains all the visible wavelengths. Whatever is not absorbed is reflected.

Answer: 185.5672566

Explanation:  The friction is not relevant

Normal reaction is the force perpendicular to the surface.

this force resists the downwards forces applied which are gravity and a component of the applied force.
