Problem 59

Refer to the following: The height of the water in a harbor changes with the tides. The height of the water at a particular hour during the day can be determined by the formula \(h(x)=5+4.8 \sin \left[\frac{\pi}{6}(x+4)\right]\) where \(x\) is the number of hours since midnight and \(h\) is the height of the tide in feet. What is the height of the tide at 3.00 P.M.? (IMAGE CANNOT COPY)

Problem 65

In Exercises \(61-66,\) sketch the graph of the function over the indicated interval. $$y=-3+4 \sin [\pi(x-2)],[0,4]$$

Problem 68

Determine whether each statement is true or false. \(\cos (2 n \pi+\theta)=\cos \theta, n\) an integer.

Problem 81

How many solutions are there to the equation \(\tan x=x ?\) Explain.

Problem 88

In calculus, the definite integral \(\int_{a}^{b} f(x) d x\) is used to find the area below the graph of a continuous function \(f\), above the \(x\) -axis, and between \(x=a\) and \(x=b\). The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus cstablishes that the definite integral \(f_{a}^{b} f(x) d x\) equals \(F(b)-F(a),\) where \(F\) is any antiderivative of a continuous function \(f.\) In Exercises \(87-90\), first shade the area corresponding to the definite integral and then use the information below to find the exact value of the area. $$\begin{array}{|l|c|c|c|c|} \hline \text { Function } & \tan x & \cot x & \sec x & \csc x \\ \hline \text { Antiderivative } & -\ln |\cos x| & \ln |\sin x| & \ln |\sec x+\tan x| & -\ln |\csc x+\cot x| \\ \hline \end{array}$$ $$\int_{\pi / 4}^{\pi / 2} \cot x d x$$

Problem 90

For Exercises \(87-90\), refer to the following: Set the calculator in parametric and radian modes and let $$ \begin{array}{l} X_{1}=\cos T \\ Y_{1}=\sin T \end{array} $$ (TABLE CANNOT COPY) Set the window so that \(0 \leq \mathrm{T} \leq 2 \pi,\) step \(=\frac{\pi}{15},-2 \leq \mathrm{X} \leq 2\) and \(-2 \leq Y \leq 2 .\) To approximate the sine or cosine of a T value, use the \([\text { TRACE }]\) key, type in the T value, and read the corresponding coordinates from the screen. Approximate \(\cos \left(\frac{5 \pi}{4}\right)\) to four decimal places.

Problem 95

For Exercises \(95-98,\) refer to the following: A weight hanging on a spring will oscillate up and down about its equilibrium position after it is pulled down and released. (IMAGE CAN'T COPY). This is an example of simple harmonic motion. This motion would continue forever if there were not any friction or air resistance. Simple harmonic motion can be described with the function \(y=A \cos (t \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}),\) where \(|A|\) is the amplitude, \(t\) is the time in seconds, \(m\) is the mass of the weight, and \(k\) is a constant particular to the spring. If the height of the spring is measured in centimeters and the mass in grams, then what are the amplitude and mass if \(y=4 \cos \left(\frac{t \sqrt{k}}{2}\right) ?\)

Problem 97

For Exercises \(95-98,\) refer to the following: A weight hanging on a spring will oscillate up and down about its equilibrium position after it is pulled down and released. (IMAGE CAN'T COPY). This is an example of simple harmonic motion. This motion would continue forever if there were not any friction or air resistance. Simple harmonic motion can be described with the function \(y=A \cos (t \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}),\) where \(|A|\) is the amplitude, \(t\) is the time in seconds, \(m\) is the mass of the weight, and \(k\) is a constant particular to the spring. The frequency of the oscillations in cycles per second is determined by \(f=\frac{1}{p},\) where \(p\) is the period. What is the frequency for the oscillation modeled by \(y=3 \cos \left(\frac{t}{2}\right) ?\)

Problem 101

If a sound wave is represented by \(y=0.008 \sin (750 \pi t) \mathrm{cm},\) what are its amplitude and frequency? See Exercise 99.
