A buoy floating in the ocean is bobbing in simple harmonic motion with period 5 seconds and amplitude 4ft. Its displacement d fr

om sea level at time =t0 seconds is −4ft, and initially it moves upward. (Note that upward is the positive direction.) Give the equation modeling the displacement d as a function of time t.

Answer:

d=-4Cos(\frac{2\pi}{5}t)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Period =5 s

Amplitude=4 ft

Displacement d from sea level at time t=0s=-4 ft

We have to find the modelling equation displacement d as a function of time.

We know that

The general equation of sinusoidal function is given by

y(t)=Acos(Bt-C)+D

B=\frac{2\pi}{period}=\frac{2\pi}{5}

When t=0, y=d=-4 ft, D=0

Substitute the values then we get

-4=4Cos(\frac{2\pi}{5}(0)-C)+0

-4=4Cos(-C)

Cos(-C)=-1

We know that Cos(-x)=Cos x

Cos C=-1

Cos C=Cos \pi  (cos(\pi)=-1)

C=\pi

Substitute the values then, we get

d=4Cos(\frac{2\pi}{5}t-\pi)+0

d=4Cos(-(\pi-\frac{2\pi}{5}t))

d=4Cos(\pi-\frac{2\pi}{5}t)

Cos(\pi-x)=-Cosx

d=-4Cos(\frac{2\pi}{5}t)

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

mean=12

Step-by-step explanation:

First, order the data like so.

5, 7, 12, 12, 16, 17, 17

Then add them all up.  

It is a sum of 86.

Finally divide

86/7=12.2

Since 12.2 movies aren't possible, let's say the mean is 12

If f(x) = 2x2 + 3 and g(x)=x2-7, find (f- g)(x).
Len [333]

The difference of the given functions is x^2 + 10

<h3>Difference of functions</h3>

Given the following functions

f(x) = 2x^2 + 3 and

g(x)=x^2-7

Take the difference

(f-g)(x) = 2x^2 + 3 - (x^2 - 7)

(f-g)(x) = 2x^2 - x^2 +3 + 7

(f-g)(x) = x^2 + 10

Hence the difference of the given functions is x^2 + 10
